Tuchel said he wants to be considered but he felt he wasnt fit enough after his latest injury, so he is available but not selected.

...and serving the 2nd of a 3 match ban on Sunday.
with Halls injury our entire left side is gone....I fully expect Salah to fill his boots.

Ah I thought he was injured
Isak is back though - think it’s going to be a tight affair

That’s a bad rule imo.
No player should miss a final because of a red card.
Just ban him for the next two.

Or just don't get sent off?

What if he headbutted someone? Would this still be the case, or would you base it on the reason for the red?

Agree. Scholes and Keane missed a Champions league final because of accumulated yellow cards. Another nonsense

In forty years of watching footy I have never seen a proper headbutt.
But yes there probably has to be exceptions.
We need a menu of offences that stop you playing in the cup final.

Sorry but it’s the right rule , if you get sent off or accumulate yellow cards then fulfill the right ban - it doesn’t matter if the next game is a final - the players are aware of the rules

Sorry I don’t agree.
Imo the ban should apply in the comp you earned it. Get a red card in the league, miss 3 league games. Red card in the fa cup, miss 3 cup games etc. They shouldn't cross over.

Isak wont be a threat....he has been very leggy the last couple of games.

Duncan Ferguson, 12 weeks in Jail for a headbutt.In forty years of watching footy I have never seen a proper headbutt.

Funny that Gordan didn’t even realise he’d miss the final

Agree .
Especially when one uses VAR to send someone off
The other dosnt use it at all in some rounds!
