Mourinho should be sanctioned for Liverpool-United ref comments - Webb

Howard Webb believes Jose Mourinho should be sanctioned by the Football Association for mind games over the appointment of Anthony Taylor as the referee for Manchester United's draw at Liverpool.

United boss Mourinho has been asked to provide his observations to the FA by the close of business on Friday after responding to a question about Manchester-based Taylor's selection for the Anfield Premier League clash, which ended goalless.

The FA will then consider its response, which is expected next week.

Managers, players and club officials have been prohibited from commenting on officials prior to a match since a new rule was introduced in 2009.
