The Premier League does not tolerate criticism of its officiating teams.
Details: According to renowned and reliable journalist and insider Ben Jacobs on his X social media page, Fulham’s 48-year-old Portuguese head coach Marco Silva has been found guilty of improper remarks directed at referee Matt Donohue and the VAR officials following the match against West Ham in Premier League Matchweek 29.

An independent regulatory commission has decided to fine Silva £90,000 and hand him a one-match touchline ban.
This means Marco Silva will not be able to lead his team in their clash against Liverpool this Saturday.
At the moment, Fulham sit ninth in the Premier League table, with 44 points from 31 matches.
Reminder: Fulham forward Raúl Jiménez has converted all 14 Premier League penalties. Who holds the record?
