The Blues manager has sympathy with the Spurs midfielder, who opened the debate about abuse of footballers after confronting his own fans
Chelsea boss Frank Lampard feels players deserve more credit for not reacting to hateful comments coming from the crowd after Tottenham's Eric Dier was involved in an altercation during his side's FA Cup defeat to Norwich.
The FA and Spurs are investigating after Dier confronted a supporter in the Tottenham Hotspur stadium stands, who was involved in a row with his brother - with the England international likely to face a ban.
