Lampard: I don't think it's right for Bielsa to win a fair play award Premier League They had their problems last year

Chelsea coach Frank Lampard is mystified by Marcelo Bielsa's winning of the FIFA Fair Play award.

Lampard was left furious at the end of last season when Bielsa's staff were founded spying on his then side, Derby County, in training ahead of their meeting with one another.

"I think everyone had the same reaction because spygate attracted a lot of news and I think quite rightly so," said Lampard.

"It got dealt with in the right way so when you go and give an award for fair play in the same year, then I don't think it's right, to be straight.

But despite his confusion, Lampard admitted to having found some humour in the decision.

"I did smile," he added, "I don't know who votes for it. Everyone knows what happened with spygate is well documented.

?"The rules changed slightly because of it and they were fined. I felt it was improper, I don't have to say that anymore.

"To get a fair play award off the back of that, I thought it was irony at first."
