The FA have been urged to hit Liverpool with a POINTS DEDUCTION following Jurgen Klopp's post-match comments about referee Paul Tierney.
Klopp exploded on the touchline after Diogo Jota scored a dramatic winner against Tottenham at Anfield last weekend.
He ran in the direction of fourth official John Brooks and celebrated in his face as he pulled his hamstring.

The German boss then accused the match referee of having an agenda against his side in a fiery interview following the result.
An FA charge appears to be on the cards, but CEO of Ref Support UK, Martin Cassidy, wants a harsher punishment for Klopp.
He's suggested the FA hit Liverpool with a POINTS DEDUCTION, claiming a measly fine is nothing.

"Unless the FA start addressing this behaviour with a points deduction it will never change," he said.
"Giving Liverpool a £30,000 fine is nothing. Start giving them points deductions and watch them shut up and behave.
"We believe that will be one of the silver bullets right across football to address right up from grassroots to the Premier League.
"There have been touchline bans for decades, but it's not getting better, it's getting worse."
Cassidy added: "I don't know how he can justify the actions which he's been doing since his days at Dortmund. I don't accept his argument of passion.
"As a Liverpool fan was Bob Paisley, Kenny Dalglish or Bill Shankly not as passionate as Jurgen Klopp? Of course they were but they didn't display the same behaviour as him."

The supposed rivalry between Klopp and Tierney soared when the Liverpool manager hit out at the man in black in his post-match interview.
"We have our history with Tierney, I really don't know what he has against us," he told Sky Sports.
"He has said there [are] no problems but that cannot be true."
What punishment should be handed out to Liverpool and Klopp? Let us know.
