Former Crystal Palace owner Simon Jordan has branded Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp a bully.
The German has been involved in various bust-ups with referees and other officials this season.
The latest came in their 4-3 win over Tottenham at the weekend, the with Reds coach berating referee Paul Tierney and his assistant all game.
“Jurgen Klopp is one of the best managers the Premier League has produced for some time,” he told talkSPORT.
“But he is a bully at times and I think some of the best managers are bullies. I think you would want your manager of your team to be a person who was capable of carrying his weight and pushing themselves around.
“(But) it was unnecessary and unacceptable his little antics running up to the fourth official. Ironically, karma intervened and he pulled a hamstring or whatever but what was more concerning was the allegations he made about the official.
“With all due respect to Klopp, he cannot make those observations he’s made about an official without being accountable for them.
“He’s effectively questioned the integrity of an official and suggested there is bias and that he is a man not professional enough to referee games. He needs to go the whole hog of what he said to him if he’s going to bring it up.”
