A former Premier League referee has questioned the decision to have Anthony Taylor take charge of Liverpool’s clash against Manchester City.
The decision to appoint Taylor for last weekend’s match was met with plenty of dismay from Liverpool fans. The Reds eventually drew the game 2-2 at the Etihad Stadium, with goals from Diogo Jota and Sadio Mane.
At the time of the appointment, plenty of Liverpool fans were quick to point out Taylor’s local connections to Manchester. The referee is from Wythenshawe which is just a few miles south from the Etihad.
