Liverpool head coach Arne Slot is facing a touchline ban after accepting a Football Association (FA) charge following his Merseyside derby red card. The club and Slot’s assistant Sipke Hulshoff also accepted separate charges prior to Wednesday’s deadline.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot is sweating on the length of a touchline that will be imposed by the FA following his red card in the recent fiery-tempered Merseyside derby.

Arne Slot gave an honest assessment of Liverpool’s shock defeat at Plymouth in the FA Cup on Sunday. The Dutch coach saw his side lose 1-0 away at the team who currently sit bottom of the Championship. Slot made several changes to his usual starting lineup and left several stars at home for the trip to Devon.
