Today's Games

[Sir David Gray]

Missed what was happening, was the keeper injured, or being substituted

The keeper went down injured twice, Sarri told Caballero to go on, the 4th official was standing with the board ready to go up and then Kepa stood in the penalty box waving his hands around refusing to come off and shouting over to the bench saying he was fine.

Sarri was furious and went up the tunnel as if he was about to leave the stadium but came back.

Going to be so interesting at Chelsea now

[Hermit Crab]

Bye Sarri, bye Chelsea, **** off home.

[Keyser Sauzee]

Sarri will walk

[hibbycraig]

Surely if the 4th official puts the board up he has to come off?

[Sir David Gray]

If I was Sarri I would be asking the board to back me by getting Kepa out the club in the summer or I would resign.

[Hibs90]

Might be a blessing in disguise for Chelsea that.

[GreenCastle]

Sarri will be gone / sacked.

He should have dragged him off.

Poor from the Chelsea GK but makes Sarri look weak and player power rule.

[Hermit Crab]

That Chelsea team will beat Liverpool in the league and hand the title to city.

[hibsbollah]

Sarri will walk

He's just not a good fit for them. He's shown what he can do with a hungry group of players at Napoli, it just seems like there are a few prize bellends at Chelsea that won't play his system

[Hibernia&Alba]

No manager can have a player refusing to be subbed. Keeper made a right James Hunt of Sarri in a cup final. One of them will have to go.

[Lancs Harp]

For those missing Spanish football after it went over to eleven sports, ITV4 are showing the Levante v Real Madrid game at 7.45

Might even see a goal after watching 240 minutes of goalless action provided by United Liverpool City Chelsea.

[Renfrew_Hibby]

If I was Sarri I would be asking the board to back me by getting Kepa out the club in the summer or I would resign.

Hardly going to happen as a) Kepa is a £72M investment and b) they are currently drawing up a list to replace Sarri, they have probably already penciled in on the calendar when the unveiling is going to take place.

[Hermit Crab]

That ultimately could have cost them the cup. Should have saved Sergios kick. Did his injury contribute to that? These questions will be asked.

Sarri has lost the dressimg room now, players will just do what they want as Kepa got away with it.

Sadly Sarri is getting emptied as I'd love to see what would have happened otherwise

[Pretty Boy]

I can see both sides.

I'm a keeper and if I had kept a clean sheet and was then subbed in the last minute of ET then I'd feel pretty humiliated. I daresay I'd make my displeasure known as well. Equally if the manager is making a decision that he believes is best for the team then the player really should respect that however, justifiably, unhappy they feel.

****e must feel like refising to play every week with the bizarre insistence on playing him in a role he is clearly unsuited to but he just seems to get om with it.

The boss is the boss. That should be the last word really.

Although the Ngolo swearfilter situation is a strange one. He played two holding mids at Napoli in Allan and Jorginho so I don't see why he won't play Ngolo and Jorginho together in the same way at Chelsea.

[Hibernia&Alba]

I think you're right, but, if there was any justice in the world, Arrizabalaga's feet wouldn't touch the ground. The man is a disgrace and should be punted.

[heretoday]

That nonsense wouldn't have happened if the likes of Lampard or Terry had been around.

Chelsea just don't have a "big man" in the side. Hazard's too busy thinking about Real Madrid and David Luiz is a clown.

I’ve never seen a keeper get cramp before ? Very odd.

He should have saved Sergios penalty too.

[Onion]

That was cringeworthy to watch, Sarri will now have to go and it leaves the lunatics in charge of the asylum. Who would be a football manager at a big club these days ? They have as much power as the tea lady. In a national cup final, embarrassing for Chelsea.

He played Allan as a box to box midfielder, the same way he is trying to use K/ante. Allan is more rounded, more dynamic, but not the ballwinner K/ante is. K/ante is the best ballwinner around.

Was great entertainment, but out of order from Kepa IMO. The manager has made the decision to sub him, which was on the back of him going down injured a couple of times, so whether he felt fit enough to continue is neither here nor there. His manager has made the decision.

As Hermit Crab said, did Kepa put his ego and the chance to be the hero with little risk before the good of the team? Did his injury a few minutes earlier play a part in not saving Aguero’s penalty?

It seems clear that Kepa will outlast Sarri given he looks on his way out already and given the way they the club are run. However I’d love to see Sarri win and sell Kepa. More likely, I’d rather see Sarri quit on his own volition tonight or in the morning.

[hibsbollah]

Whenever I watched Napoli, it always seemed like the two of them were next to each other, a few metres apart, one being a destroyer, one being a quarterback in front of the back four, but different strokes for different folks.

PossiblY in bigger games but Allan is definitely a more rounded player. K/ante fills a very specific role.

Kepa was claiming he was injured just a few minutes beforehand, Sarri wasn't trying to sub him to humiliate him, he was trying to sub him because he had gone down injured for treatment just a few minutes before a crucial penalty shootout in a cup final.

[Callum_62]

Vinnie Kompany saying willy Cabelero very good at saving pens too

Even if he wasnt injured what if cabelero is just better at pens?

Like when Van Gaal brought on Tim Krul who won them the shoot out

Agreed. Hazard be offski in the summer. Transfer window ban all of next season. Not looking good for Chelsea.

[Keyser Sauzee]

Kepa going down clearly feigning injury couple times before it means he’s brought the change on himself and should have a bit respect and accept the decision. It highlights a much bigger issue for me though in that honesty is almost slipping completely out the game. Kepa was more interested in wasting a little time than being honest and getting on with the game.

It's a team game and keepers aren't immune from being subbed whether it be tactical or otherwise.

Are all out on loan. They will also appeal the ban and be allowed to sign players during appeal. They'll be fine.

Anybody else think Sarri had a go at Caballero in the midst of his rant before walking down the tunnel?? Might just be seeing things but what does he expect Caballero to do?

[The Spaceman]

Feel for Sarri there. Talk about kicking a guy whilst he's down!

Kepa is a clown and should be shown the door for that. Disgraceful behaviour.

Haven’t seen much of Pulisic except the Spurs game in which he wasn’t really in the game. All the other players mentioned are out on loan for a reason, which is they probably ain’t good enough. We’ll see what happens but it’s not great for them just now.

One thing I would change overnight about the professional game is have a timekeeper, maybe the fifth official if the fourth official has too much to do. The ref has too many other things to concentrate on.

I see the women's game has a new rule where subs can leave the field at any point of the sideline, which speeds up the game and reduces the impact of timewasting at substitution.

You go down to the pub and ask for a pint. You get charged the price of a pint, but then the barman pours you only two thirds of a pint.

Or you go into a shop and ask for a four finger KitKat. You pay for it, but the shopkeeper breaks off one finger before passing it to you.

Frustrating eh. So why should we pay £23 for a game of football and only see the ball in play for around 60 minutes.

Bottom of the league below.

Hearts will be at Hampden with..

Celtic
Aberdeen / Huns
Dundee Utd / Inverness

They have a very good chance of a final sadly.

3 of those teams would likely beat them. The other 2 they'd be favourites against.

Aberdeen are a fitter side than Hibs - they also have a better squad.

Celtic stronger than Rangers.

Hibs v Rangers on Friday will be interesting though as last time they battered us and we somehow took a point.

[cabbageandribs1875]

hertz fans will be keeping a close watch out for their SF opponents in the Dundee utd v Caley game, KO 3:30

Is it?

[Hermit Crab]

Aberdeen getting right in about Rangers, thats what we need to do on Friday. Omeonga to start again. :agree:

[Glory Lurker]

Is it?

So much so I probably won't even watch it. Not like you to question hearts' chances :-)

[Billy Whizz]

Be surprised if Morelos lasts the 90 mins today
Booked for diving and committing silly fouls

OK,what possible excuse is there for them being fitter?

After Hibs massive investment,by our standards in East Mains and, in backroom staff, that is completely unacceptable.
After all Aberdeen do not an East Mains like facility.

I just can't see it at all, much as I'd like to.

[Hermit Crab]

Fulham v Chelsea just about to kick off on Sky Sports Premier League. Kepa back in goals.

[Hermit Crab]

McGinn should have made it 2-0 there.

[Callum_62]

Morelos already committed a couple of fouls since his booking

Lets see how many he can get away with

Well I agree - it shouldn’t happen with the resources we have.

Speaking with a Dundee friend their players were tested recently and we no where near the required level. Their new manager compared to when he was at Ross County and Dundee players have done more to improve levels and recruit fitter players / got rid of unfit players.

It happens for various reasons.

The best teams are usually always the most fit / athletic also.

[Glory Lurker]

Someone tell Morelos that Gary Oldman's character in The Fifth Element wants his haircut back.

[cabbageandribs1875]

HT at todders 1-0




Morelos "can't control himself"

Aberdeen 1-0 Rangers

BBC Sportsound pundit Willie Miller on Sportsound: That must be so frustrating for Steven Gerrard - it's clear for anyone to see that Alfredo Morelos has taken a dive. He can't control himself, anything can happen now.

[Hermit Crab]

0-1 Chelsea, Higuain

Just saw a replay of Morelos having a fly kick at an Aberdeen player off the ball

That's the first time in ages I've seen Chelsea score with a first-time ball across and a direct strike.

Usually, they're poking it about around the edge of the box like Arsenal used to do.

I think Friday could be a really tough one for us

Half of the team looked absolutely knackered yesterday and I am pretty sure that some of the others are playing through injury.

With apparently no-one else due back soon from injury I really don't know how we are going to do for the rest of the season. I suspect its going to be pretty rough if and IMO its still a big if we get in the top 6.

Huge clear out / rebuild required in the summer.

It's also clear that we kept far too many of last seasons under 20's who have no chance of making an impact at first team level as a cheap way of beefing up the reserve team.

If some of these guys couldn't get a sniff of even the bench in this injury hit season then they shouldn't be anywhere near the club

[Montford]

How come that Tory / Unionist MP always seems to get to run the line at the big (Important) Rangers games?? He’s already missed Goldson run the ball over the bye line and given a throw the wrong way.. also flags for every minor Aberdeen infringement

[heretoday]

Empty seats at Pittodrie too.

I agree Friday will be tough and that we will need to play a lot better than last night to get a result.

Is one of Heckys traits not bringing through youngsters? We may see one or two of them given a chance. I dont think Shaw is anywhere near good enough though.

[Hermit Crab]

Shinnie booked! Unbelievable

[Hermit Crab]

**** sake, Aberdeen mis another 2 sitters.

Sheep are going to regret these chances being missed.

I disagree re Shaw.

I think the problem with Shaw is similar to that of a lot of our players and probably reflects our place in the food chain.

I would call them 80% players, they are 80% of a good player 80% of the time.

I am less worried about Shaw though as he still has plenty time to develop.

[calumhibee1]

The Huns have Morelos who is of any real value. Other than that they're being ripped off for the majority of their squad.

Huge difference to Celtic who could probably punt Tierney for 15-20m, McGregor, Boyata, Edouard, Forrest and Ntcham for no far off, or in some cases maybe even more than 10m and have Burke on loan who just recently moved for 15m. Throw in the boy from Dortmund and Weah who will also both be worth a few bob and it's not really comparable to Rangers, is it? When Celtic turn up they win 9 times out of 10. I'd be interested to see what games you thought Celtic have played well in domestically and still got beat?

[Pete]

If there’s one thing I’m learning from the United v ICT match, it’s that neither United or ICT will win the cup.

Both useless.

Mane 2+ shots on target and Van Djik 2+ tackles is 9/1 with skybet. Great value.

Yep, if only the arm was offside then the decision's wrong.
