Arne Slot allegedly told Michael Oliver that he would blame the referee if Liverpool didn’t win the Premier League, as part of his foul-mouth assault on the official that saw him earn a red card against Everton last month.

The Dutchman was shown a straight red card by the official after full-time at Goodison Park and the details of what he said to Oliver have since been released by the FA.

They state the referee was approached by Slot in a ‘confrontational and aggressive’ manner, and he used abusive words while shaking Oliver’s hand.



Slot told the referee that he ‘“f**king give them everything” and added he hoped Oliver ‘was proud of that performance’.
