Everton boss Frank Lampard says managers have a responsibility to behave on the touchline.
However, Lampard does not believe there is a link between the behaviour of elite managers and the abuse of referees at grassroots level.
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was sent off against Manchester City on Sunday for berating an assistant referee.
It was one of a number of incidents involving match officials being confronted in the top flight on Sunday.
"We have a responsibility, I understand that," Lampard said.
"There's also a microscope put on managers in the modern day and we're in highly pressurised jobs.
