Lampard, working as a pundit for Amazon, was watching the warm-ups ahead of the Champions League showdown.
Host Logan focused on Saliba and Gabriel, who are forming a formidable partnership for Arsenal at the back this season.
Addressing Lampard, Logan said: “Chelsea of course, on your way to European success, relied on the partnership between Ricardo Carvalho and John Terry.
“Are [Saliba and Gabriel] comparable?”
Lampard, who won the Champions League alongside Carvalho and Terry, pulled no punches with his response.
He hit back: “No! Not yet. If they go and win two, three Premier Leagues and a Champions League, maybe you can compare them.
“I’m not putting them down. They are young, fantastic players improving all the time.”
To a loud laugh from co-pundit Micah Richards, he added: “Win some stuff, boys. Then you can get in that conversation.”

One fan responded to the clip: “And Lampard is absolutely spot on.”
Another said: “Let him cook.”
While a third argued: “Anyone with a brain shuts down this ridiculous comparison.”
Earlier in the Amazon broadcast, Logan was forced to apologise after a huge scheduling blunder.
Arsenal fans were left seething after Prime Video suffered a big error.

The beginning of the preview show had been billed as 6.30pm.
But as the clock struck the designated time, the build-up did not start.
Coverage didn’t start until 7pm, with Gabby forced into a grovelling apology.
She said: “Apologies, we are a little later than planned.”
