London: Man United boss Jose Mourinho was yesterday charged with misconduct over comments he made about the referee in charge of this month's Liverpool game, the Football Association has announced.
United's Portuguese boss faces a disciplinary hearing after questioning referee Anthony Taylor's suitability to take charge of the October 17 game at Anfield. When those comments were put to Mourinho, the United boss said: "I think Taylor is a very good referee but I think somebody with intention is putting such a pressure on him that I feel that it will be difficult for him to have a good performance."
The FA is a statement said: "Jose Mourinho has been charged with misconduct in respect of comments he made relating to the match referee, prior to the fixture on Monday 17 October 2016. "It is alleged his comments were improper and brought the game into disrepute."
