Liverpool left-back Andrew Robertson had a major rant at Premier League referee David Coote a few years ago, which perhaps shows where the bad blood started between the club and this particular match official.
Coote has been suspended by PGMOL, as reported by BBC Sport, following yesterday’s big story that showed the referee launching a foul-mouthed tirade against Liverpool and their former manager Jurgen Klopp.
In the video that surfaced, Coote made reference to issues between himself and Klopp from a game against Burnley during lockdown, and it may be that it relates to an incident with Reds left-back Robertson, who can be seen swearing a lot at the referee in the video clip below…
