Frank Lampard says behaviour of Jurgen Klopp's coaching staff was 'against the code' during Chelsea's defeat at Anfield as the two bosses continue their war of words

The war of words between Jurgen Klopp and Frank Lampard intensified on Friday with another volley of accusations between Merseyside and west London.

Klopp hit back at Lampard’s claim Liverpool were arrogant and told the Chelsea head coach he had a lot to learn.

Lampard accused Klopp’s staff of crossing a line and showing a lack of respect by leaping up, shouting and smirking at him during Chelsea’s 5-3 defeat at Anfield on Wednesday.
