Chelsea caretaker Frank Lampard was in no mood to discuss the comments made by Didier Drogba this week.
Lampard's ex-teammate and the legendary Chelsea striker Drogba stated that he no longer recognised the club under co-owner Todd Boehly.
However, Lampard would not be drawn on the matter after he lost his fourth game in a row in charge of the club, this time against Real Madrid in the Champions League.
They're Didier's comments, sorry," he bluntly told reporters.
I don't recognise my club," Drogba had stated.
It's no longer the same club. There is a new owner and a new vision. Of course, we try to compare it with what happened during the [Roman] Abramovich era where a lot of players were brought in, but the decisions were very intelligent.
Bringing in players like Petr Cech, Andriy Shevchenko, Herman Crespo, Michael Essien, Didier Drogba, Florent Malouda, and I go on. It was done to win titles. They are players with a certain experience. The strategy is now different; we bet on young players. But a dressing room of over 30 players is difficult [to manage] for a manager."
