Arne Slot has reignited the flames ahead of the Merseyside derby by refusing to promise he won’t land himself in trouble when Liverpool takes on Everton later.

The Reds can take another huge step toward the Premier League title as they host their city rival at Anfield.

James Tarkowski scored in the final minute of stoppage time to secure a point for the Toffees, with Curtis Jones, Abdoulaye Doucoure, Slot and his assistant Sipke Hulshoff all being shown a red card after the final whistle.

Slot showed remorse for his angry confrontation with referee Michael Oliver after the game, although the Liverpool boss isn’t ruling out a repeat when the two sides meet again later.

“I said I hope that I will act differently next time,” Slot told Sky Sports ahead of the latest derby.

“Now, there was a lot of noise about that, so was that a failure or is it an unbelievable accomplishment if you’re not good enough to win the FA Cup, the League Cup and the Champions League that you’re 12 points clear at the moment in the Premier League?

“It’s always the balance you want to find, so we know what we are doing, we know it was probably not realistic to expect winning a quadruple or a treble in this country, in this moment, with the team we are having at the moment.

“I find it an unbelievable accomplishment from these players that, in a league like this, nine games before the end, we are 12 points clear.”
