Liverpool Boss Suggested Referee to Blame for Potential Title Loss

Liverpool manager Arne Slot has found himself in hot water after a fiery Merseyside derby against Everton last month.

The match, which ended in a 2-2 draw, saw a dramatic late equalizer from Everton’s James Tarkowski in the eighth minute of added time, denying Liverpool a chance to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table.

The aftermath of the game was filled with controversy, as Slot and his assistant Sipke Hulshoff confronted referee Michael Oliver on the pitch, leading to both being shown red cards.

This followed an earlier incident where both Liverpool’s Curtis Jones and Everton’s Abdoulaye Doucoure were sent off for a post-whistle altercation.

Oliver’s match report detailed a heated exchange with Slot, alleging the Liverpool manager told him he had “fking give them everything” and hoped he “was proud of that performance”.

The report further claims that Slot told Oliver, “if we don’t win the league, I’ll fing blame you”, before telling an assistant referee it was “a f***ing disgrace”. Similar accusations of abusive language were also levelled against Hulshoff.

While Slot admitted to the charges, he insisted his words were “if we don’t win the league, I will have you to thank for that”, arguing this was not a direct threat towards Oliver.

However, the FA dismissed this, stating the discrepancy did not significantly alter the nature of the misconduct.

Following a hearing, the FA handed both Slot and Hulshoff two-match touchline bans and fines for their behaviour. The commission highlighted Slot’s position as a role model and emphasized that his actions did not reflect the positive image the sport strives for.

Despite acknowledging his actions were unacceptable, Slot maintained that his frustration stemmed from perceived unfair decisions against Liverpool.

He also requested that the touchline bans be staggered to ensure either he or Hulshoff would be present for each game, a request that was denied.
The commission stated that a three-match ban would have been imposed if not for the pair’s previously clean records.

This leniency means they will be available for this month’s Carabao Cup final.
Hulshoff, while admitting his frustration got the better of him, also insisted that his language was not directed personally at Oliver.

Both Slot and Hulshoff have the right to appeal the commission’s decision. This incident has added another layer of drama to an already intense Premier League title race, with Liverpool currently holding a 13-point lead.
