Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was booked during their 2-2 draw with Tottenham.
Klopp defended his actions during the pulsating clash, which saw Andrew Robertson sent off.
He said, “It is always helpful when you play football yourself. When you see the situation back (Diogo Jota's penalty appeal), the VAR is there. Why is he stopping? I don't understand. The draw is fine. We are not crazy enough to think we cannot draw at Tottenham but these situations are crucial.
“I have no idea what his [referee Paul Tierney] problem is with me.
"I was a bit more emotional in the game but he gives me a yellow card but it is not allowed in a situation like this? He comes over and gives me a yellow card but I'd have preferred the right decisions on the pitch.
“We have our complete midfield out, the best centre half in the world… We lose our captain on matchday so you cannot expect to play the best football game of the season. You have to fight and that's what the boys did.
"But just an objective ref who sees the situations and judges them. He told me he thinks he stops on purpose. It is incredible. He had the best spot on the pitch and doesn't give it. You will have to ask him what his problem is with me."
