The Manchester United boss kicked a water bottle in frustration after Paul Pogba was booked for diving during the 1-1 draw with West Ham at Old Trafford.
Referee Jonathan Moss sent Mourinho to the stands - his second sending off since joining United as manager in the summer, and his third dismissal in just over a year.
He was sent off last month by Mark Clattenburg during a match with Burnley, and the FA could now come down harder on the Portuguese since they are free to take into account previous incidents within the last 12 months.
He was given one match bans for both of his last two dismissals.

Partly as a result of another touchline feud between Wenger and Mourinho, the FA brought in new behaviour rules in the summer of 2015 to try to reign in the increasingly unseemly scenes between rival bosses, as Mirror Sport's chief football writer John Cross pointed out: https://twitter.com/johncrossmirror/status/803170823502761984 So cool your jets United fans. There is no conspiracy (at least not about this). It's just the rules. Catch up with this week's episode of Football Friday Live:Explore more on these topics:
