What the managers say

Derby boss Frank Lampard has compared the play-off final showdown to Chelsea’s crucial Champions League qualification which changed the course of the club’s future.In 2003, Lampard’s Chelsea faced Liverpool at Stamford Bridge, with the game labelled ‘the 20million match’ as the winners would qualify for the Champions League.Chelsea won 2-1 to finish fourth but without Champions League football Roman Abramovich may not have bought the club, who have won five Premier League titles since.Lampard said: “If I can match it to something it will be the Chelsea game we played a long time ago just before Roman Abramovich came to the club.“We had a game against Liverpool to make it to the Champions League. If we lost that game the club was in real trouble, and if we won then things would change. Although we didn’t quite know how well they would change.

Tammy Abraham, on loan from Chelsea, will be Villa’s danger man

“There was tension before that game among the players but I don’t feel that here. It’s a crucial game for the club but what I’ve tried to do is take that away from the players.“I just want them to think about a football match. The lads don’t need to think about 170million, they don’t need to think about next year or their holidays. They just need to think about Monday.”Villa head coach Dean Smith – a boyhood fan of the club – is out to achieve his ‘impossible dream’.He said: “I always said when I was at Walsall that it was an improbable dream to get to the Championship and an impossible dream to get to the Premier League.“I changed that with Brentford, and I think I’ve changed that again by coming here.“It’s certainly not improbable or impossible to get to the Premier League with Aston Villa. There’s a distinct possibility.“We should be a top-six team in the Championship guaranteed in my eyes, with the size of the club and the players we’ve got, and we should always be trying to get to the Premier League if notn it.

Dean Smith is on the verge of leading the team he supports to the Premier League

“Getting Aston Villa up would be a big achievement but probably keeping Walsall up in my first year was a bigger achievement because we needed snookers in January.“That was certainly a tough time. Each job you have has its own tough times and good times.“At the moment we’re in the period of a good time and we need to make sure we finish that off by getting promoted. If we do it will certainly feel like the pinnacle of my managerial career so far.”
