Tuchel accused Taylor and the Video Assistant Referee Mike Dean of making wrong decisions which ultimately helped Spurs come away from Stamford Bridge with a point as tempers flared and both he and his counterpart Antonio Conte saw red.
Dean had admitted last week that he made a mistake in not asking Taylor to look at an incident where Spurs’ Cristian Romero had pulled Chelsea defender Marc Cucurella’s hair, a decision that left Tuchel fuming.
“It is alleged that the manager’s comments in his post-match press conference constitute improper conduct… they imply bias and/or question the integrity of the match referee, and/or bring the game into disrepute,” the FA said.
The FA added that Tuchel has until Thursday to respond to the charge.
Tuchel had already received a suspended touchline ban and 35,000 pounds ($41,132) fine following his confrontation with Spurs boss Antonio Conte.
