Arne Slot did not sworn to lose his patience again and admitted that emotions have become better in the Merseyside Derby after the FA published the written reasons for the two-game prohibition of the Liverpool head coach on Tuesday.
Slot is accused of telling referee Michael Oliver 'I will blame you if we do not win the competition' during an X-rated tirade after the draw in Everton last month. The manager disputed that he used this dirty language, but accepted the indictment.
But the Reds boss wants to put the incident behind him and said on Tuesday: 'The moment it happened, I was pretty emotional for everything that happened in the last seven or eight minutes and maybe the entire game.
'I chose to go on the field instead of staying calm, staying inside and then talking to Michael. Now I no longer have the same emotions, so I think I should give a better example than I would then and don't go back into the situation.
'It is clear what I wrote and what Michael wrote (in the report). Michael has been quite a lot in the news lately and I don't think it helps if I add something to it now that I have my emotions under control. '
In the verdict, the apology of the FA noticed and how he had shown repentance and thus reduced his ban to two games instead of three. He has already served one of those competitions and will also be outside the Saturday competition with Southampton.
Instead, lock claimed that he said: “If we don't win the competition, I will thank you for that,” but he did not challenge that he said it was a 'f ** king shame' for the assistant referee. Slot's assistant Sipke Hulshoff is also accused of using error language on various points he accepted.
In his first approach to Oliver, with his two approaches reportedly a minute apart, it was revealed that the referee told the referee that he “had given everything (Everton) everything” and that he hoped that Oliver was “proud of that performance.”
He also established that his X-rated tirade was not personal abuse towards civil servants and, instead, was more generally a product of his frustration in the way of the game, which allowed Liverpool a equalizer of 98th minutes.
Referee Oliver will not be involved this weekend in Premier League matches and a week a week of initially missing the straight red card for Millwall goalkeeper Liam Roberts, so Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta needed 25 stitches.
PGMOL Sinsiders say they regularly rotate referees and that includes officials occasionally skip competition rounds, although his absence in the last list of agreements yesterday inevitably led to speculation after the controversial FA Cup collision in Selhurst Park.
In the meantime, Liverpool has been compared to a team of 'fighter jets' by Paris Saint-Germain boss Luis Enrique prior to the two teams that are in a delightful collision in the Parc des Princes in the Parc des Princes on Wednesday evening.
“They have three fighter jets and it is not easy to stop these fighter jets,” said the Spaniard, who won the Champions League as Barcelona Boss and PSG a force – 22 undefeated.
'We are confronted with the team that played the best football in the group stage. They were the most consistent side. Arne Slot did great.
“He has created an almost perfect team, knows how to defend, how to press and attack by holding the ball or accelerating.”
Finally, this went against and said: 'It is a nice compliment to get, but the best team in Europe has to win the Champions League … We are far away from that, starting with a very difficult game here and then all the difficult ones that come up because we have seen the draw.
'I think the best team in Europe is still Real Madrid at the moment because they won this competition last season. Someone else can say something else, but for us we have to win first before we can say it. '
Liverpool sweats on the suitability of forward Cody Gakpo after he had a knock in training on Monday. The Dutchman did not train on Tuesday morning, but was part of the traveling party who boarded the flight to Paris.
