Blackburn boss Sam Allardyce was not impressed with Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti after he claimed that Rovers played long balls all afternoon when they held his title chasing side to a 1-1 draw.
Speaking after the visitors conceded a second-half equaliser at Ewood Park, Ancelotti said: "They put us under more pressure, they put more long balls."
Allardyce told BBC Radio Lancashire: "He's come down in my estimation in listening to that interview on Sunday.
"We've got another top coach unable and unwilling to give us the credit.
"Irrespective of what Ancelotti said - that we played long and all that rubbish - it was a fantastic result and a great performance in the second-half with some good football played."
