Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham has dig to the way manager Frank Lampard set his side up against Sheffield United.

However, after the game in the dressing Tammy burst to tears after Chelsea boss Frank Lampard called him “A championship striker”. He later respond to Lampard’s tactics caused it.

Speaking after the game, an embarrassing 3-0 defeat, Abraham seemed to admit that the tactics were too attack-minded, leaving the team vulnerable in defence.

While the England international did not directly criticise Lampard’s tactical decisions, his words did imply that the way the Blues boss approached the game was part of the problem.

Speaking to Stadium Astro, as quoted by the Metro, Abraham gave this response when asked if the team needed to change its style: “Yeah, of course it’s fair.

“We know that ourselves, we throw so many bodies forward. “We’re very vulnerable when we lose the ball higher up the pitch and that’s something we need to improve on. We’re still a young, learning team.

“If we want to be the best, if we want to win titles and leagues that’s something we’ll have to manage.”
