Chelsea boss Lampard: Mourinho had a go after Man Utd defeat

Chelsea boss Frank Lampard has revealed Jose Mourinho "had a little go" at him following their opening day defeat at Manchester United.

The Blues got their campaign off to a miserable start with a 4-0 defeat at Old Trafford, which marked Lampard's first competitive game at the helm.

Speaking to talkSPORT, Lampard said: "With Jose we would have texts from time to time. We had some at the start of the season around the United game where he had a little go!"

Lampard, who spent a period of time working for BT Sport, accepts that it is nothing personal.

"It's all good," he added. "I've sat in the punditry chair for a year so I understand the need to say things so I'm certainly not going to bang on too much. In terms of him, yeah we have a relationship."
