Burnley striker Jonathan Walters has branded Chelsea "lightweight".

The Clarets stunned Chelsea last week at Stamford Bridge.

On Chelsea's weak - both physically and in terms of depth - squad for the game, Walters referred to the Blues as "lightweight".

He told The Times: They're nowhere near what they were last year.

“I read a bit about he [Conte] maybe put a really weak bench to send a signal [to the board].

"He said 'no', but I've seen managers do that. I was warming up and thinking, 'I don't know a lot of these lads'.

“Last year at the back, they were strong, big, and horrible with [Nemanja] Matic sitting in front of them, a tough lad. Serbs are hard.

"Most of the Burnley lads were very surprised he went, to [Manchester] United as well.

“They haven't got Diego Costa upfront. Everyone hated him but you'd love to have him in the team, he's brilliant, he's the best at winding people up.

"But you could get to him in his head.

“Chelsea were a bit lightweight. We didn't bully them either. I was watching our goals again, excellent goals, quick play, cross in the box, goal.

“It wasn't like we lumped them in the box. Chelsea need to buck up a bit."
