Lampards No2 Morris told to stop social media posts about Mourinho as Chelsea clamp down on comments

JODY MORRIS, assistant to Chelsea manager Frank Lampard, has reportedly been told to stop social media posts about Jose Mourinho.

The ex-Blues midfielder Morris replied to a video of Mourinho raising concerns over Lampards current squad.

Morris captioned his tweet: Jose is still worried. With three laughing emojis.

The Chelsea assistant boss then posted a video on Instagram, pretending to cry while Bitter Sweet Symphony by The Verve played in the background.

According to the Daily Mail, Stamford Bridge bosses feel the attack on the ex-Blues manager is inappropriate from a senior member of staff.

It is claimed club chiefs have asked Morris to show more restraint from the online digs.

But they are said to have no plans on banning the coach from social media.

It marks another clamp down in discipline, after Chelseas player fines recently revealed.

Should Lampard blow the whistle on the start of a day’s workout just as a tardy squad member yanks on their training kit, they will be met with a 20,000 fine.

And Blues stars will be no strangers to nervously checking their phones after it emerged the club fines them 1,000 if it rings in a team meeting.

Turning up behind schedule for treatment is down as a 2,500 felony with it 5,000 for not travelling back from a game on the team coach without prior warning.

And any player not appropriately dressed for travelling with the team must hand over 1,000.

Of the sanctions, perhaps the most understandable is the whopping 10,000 fine if someone doesn’t report an illness or injury before their day off or within 90 minutes of training starting.

This is most likely an attempt to stop players hiding problems that could be made worse when playing or infect other teammates.

The rule sheet, signed by Frank Lampard and dated to August 27, stipulates that fines need to be paid within 14 days or be doubled.
