Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel fined $23,000 for referee criticism
Tuchel admitted a Football Association charge of improper conduct following his comments about Taylor after Chelsea's stormy 2-2 draw with Tottenham in the Premier League in August. "An independent regulatory commission has ordered Chelsea's Thomas Tuchel to be fined £20,000 and warned about his future conduct for breaching FA Rule E3.1 during a post-match press conference on Sunday, August 14 2022," an FA statement said. "The manager admitted that his comments after their Premier League match against Tottenham constitute improper conduct as they imply bias, question the integrity of the match referee, and bring the game into disrepute." Tuchel was furious after two key decisions by Taylor went against Chelsea and led to Tottenham goals in the London derby.
