Confirmed: Full Chelsea squad revealed for Liverpool clash as Thomas Tuchel faces Romelu Lukaku worry

 Thomas Tuchel will be looking to 

win his fourth trophy as Chelsea manager

 when he picks his side to face Liverpool

 in the FA Cup final on Saturday afternoon

. Since arriving at Stamford Bridge

 he has already claimed the Champions

 League, UEFA Super Cup and FIFA

 Club World Cup but the FA Cup

 has so far eluded him.



The menacing figure of Jurgen Klopp's 


Liverpool stands in their way, however


. The Reds are still in contention to win


 four trophies this season and pull off


 a historic quadruple but each meeting 


between the two teams this season 


have been hotly contested and this


 one will be no different.



Chelsea were hit by an unwanted 


distraction ahead of kick-off, however


, when Romelu Lukaku's agent spoke 


to the press about his client's future. 


It is something that will not have gone


 down well with the coaching staff 


but Tuchel was calm about the situation


, also addressing whether Kai Havertz 


could join the Belgian in attack.



"I was only made aware of it five 


or 10 minutes ago, actually," he told 


his pre-match press conference on Friday


. "It's what sometimes happens in football


. The attention is so high that sometimes


 it attracts situations that you don't want


 to have before big matches. It's the 


way it is. For me, it is not a distraction


 and hopefully, for everybody that 


works on the team and the team 


itself, it is not."



Tuchel was asked whether Lukaku 


and Havertz could both start against Liverpool


: "Yes, we can also play both, although


 they lacked a bit of the feeling of being


 a perfect fit together. It's very likely 


that it is one of the two, but we will not


 give the line-up today. Listen, Romelu


 has played lately and scored lately. 


He did everything to stay on the pitch. 


Will be our final call in the morning."



Goalkeepers: Edouard Mendy, 


Kepa Arrizabalaga, Marcus Bettinelli


Defenders: Trevoh Chalobah, Malang


 Sarr, Thiago Silva, Marcos Alonso, 


Reece James, Cesar Azpilicueta, Antonio


 Rudiger, Andreas Christensen



Midfielders: Saul Niguez, Ruben 


Loftus-Cheek, Mason Mount, Mateo 


Kovacic, Ross Barkley, N'Golo Kante



Forwards: Kenedy, Kai Havertz, 


Hakim Ziyech, Christian Pulisic, 


Romelu Lukaku, Timo Werner

  England and Manchester United  striker Mason Greenwood is currently  out on bail, but remains under ongoing  police investigation, based on charges  related to  the   “rape and assault  of a young woman”  and  “ suspicion of sexual assault and threats  to kill”. The  dramatic  story  broke across  the  globe when one-time girlfriend  Harriet Robson was seen to have  shared a post on Instagram at the  end of  January , which revealed bruises  and cuts on her body with a caption  stating:  “To everyone who wants  to know what Mason Greenwood  actually does to me”.  The series  of disturbing images clearly indicate  a case of domestic abuse, while  an audio clip seemingly implicates  Greenwood in abusive and threatening  behaviour. Below is how the case  against Greenwood has  unfolded: 30  January : Pictures, an au...

Confirmed:Fernandes and Telles dropped,Manchester United best suitable line up to beat Chelsea (3-4-2-1)

Image
  Chelsea won’t be an easy  opposition with the last three  meetings ending in draws, but  many United stars are playing  for their futures. With a huge rebuild expected this  summer, a number of players have  a point to prove to incoming head  coach Erik ten Hag. Formation:  3-4-2-1 Predicted Line-up: David de Gea has been one of the  stand-out performers for United this  campaign. He came up with a couple  of crucial saves against the Gunners , but was not sufficient to pick up  points. There are no doubts over  his position between the sticks. Ralf Rangnick may try to match  the Blues’ three-at-the-back formation,  something that has been done by  several clubs against them. In  this case, Harry Maguire could  be reinstated into the heart of the  defence alongside Raphael  Varane and Victor Lindelof. Diogo Dalot started nervously  against the Gunners with a couple  of de...
