Chelsea have been fined £25,000 by the FA for “failing to control their players” in the match against Liverpool two weeks ago.Chelsea were in charge and dominant against the Reds when Reece James received a red card for a handball on the line.Not only were Liverpool being given a penalty for the same offence, but it was also clear that the ball had deflected from the defender’s leg onto his arm. The double punishment seemed harsh, and Blues surrounded the ref to make their complaints.
