Chelsea manager Frank Lampard has said Premier League champions Liverpool should not become too arrogant after being left unimpressed with the behaviour of their bench during Wednesday`s 5-3 Premier League defeat.

Lampard was involved in an exchange with Liverpool`s bench after a free kick was awarded against Chelsea`s Mateo Kovacic. Trent Alexander-Arnold found the net from the free kick to make it 2-0.


"For me it wasn`t a foul from Kovacic," Lampard told Sky Sports. "There were a lot of things that were ongoing and on the bench ... I`ve got no problem with Juergen Klopp, he`s managed this team and it`s fantastic.


"Some of the bench, it`s a fine line between when you are winning - and they`ve won the league, fair play to Liverpool Football Club - but also don`t get too arrogant with it.


"That was my thing, but (it`s) done. In match play you get emotional and that was it."


Defeat left Chelsea fourth on 63 points, trailing Manchester United on goal difference. Lampard`s side need only a point from their final match on Sunday against Wolverhampton Wanderers to seal a place in next season`s Champions League.
