Arne Slot was proven a yellow card for the second Premier League sport in a row, and he has defined how his feedback about Arsenal have been misinterpreted by the fourth official.
The Liverpool boss is shortly coming to the realisation of why Premier League officers drove his predecessor to madness, with extra head-scratching selections on the Emirates.
Nevertheless it was Arsenal‘s efficiency that set Slot’s second yellow card in as many video games in movement, and his clarification of occasions in his post-match press convention was fairly entertaining.
“The place final time I mentioned, ‘I fully deserved the yellow card’, this time I don’t suppose I did,” Slot began.
“I mentioned after so many occasions that they have been on the ground, which may occur in soccer, I don’t blame them for that, however they at all times fell down after that they had ball possession and that took the vitality out of the sport.
“I mentioned to Ibou, ‘It is a f***ing joke’, and the fourth official thought I mentioned it to him, ‘You’re a f***ing joke’, which is certainly not what I mentioned.
“However I received a yellow for that so now I’ve two, so I’ve to watch out now.”
The reply led to rumbles of laughter from members of the press, with Slot delivering the decision along with his traditional stoic tone – although there was slightly smile thrown in there.
The Dutchman had some extent, although. Arsenal use breaks in play to take the sting out of the sport, and so they have an uncommon variety of gamers who persistently go down with cramp – a medical thriller!
Slot clearly wanted to vent his frustrations, however the fourth official might have taken that one slightly too personally.
