Former PGMOL chief Keith Hackett has hinted that the Premier League might consider introducing points sanctions for managers' behavior, following Arne Slot's clash with Michael Oliver.

Liverpool manager Slot expressed his displeasure at referee Oliver's decision to allow James Tarkowski's late equalizer for Everton in the Merseyside Derby back in February.

The Dutchman was shown a red card after the final whistle at Goodison Park and subsequently received a two-match ban, which he will serve during his team's next league game against Southampton.

"It happened a lot and the emotions got the better of me," Slot admitted of his behavior.

The last time they used that sanction for an on-field mass confrontation was in the game between Manchester United v Arsenal (in the 1990s) where I was the man in the middle."



However, despite Hackett's conjecture, there's no whisper from the Premier League corridors to suggest point penalties for such infractions are looming.

Slot wasn't the only person to be punished after the Merseyside Derby, which left Curtis Jones out of action due to a red card ban along with Everton’s Abdoulaye Doucoure

Slot's second-in-command Sipke Hulshoff also found himself out of commission, missing Liverpool's subsequent league clash - the one where John Heitinga steered the Reds to a clear-cut 2-0 win against Newcastle.

A morale-boosting victory, indeed, thanks to goals from Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister, giving the Reds plenty to be chipper about before they square off for the Carabao Cup silverware against the same team.

Despite the sideline reshuffle, Slot's time away from domestic dugout duty is far from over

He's set to make his managerial return in the Champions League next, but he'll sit out once more for Saturday's skirmish with Southampton
