We had enjoyed such a nice tranquil period at Chelsea in terms of off-field events and I was starting to beleive this was becoming the new norm, but then along came Lukakugate.
I really don't know what to make of it tbh, but I feel that the club should have the capacity and know-how to deal with the matter internally without needing to make a public demonstration by dropping Lukaku today.
If it was me in charge I would have played him. He had a decent first half at Anfield mugging off Matip to create an excelent chance for Mount and unsurpisingly struggled when we went down to 10 men, but still pinned VVD to create a wonderful chance for Kovacic to win the game.
In the last two games for us he has been our best player by a country mile.
However, Tuchel and the club obviously see it differently!
Lukaku dropped from the squad!

So Lukaku isn't allowed an opinion and is being punished for his honesty an openness. Honestly, they wont be happy until players are actual robots.

Well firstly, flat trackers are really important for winning trophies.....and secondly he twice mugged off VVD at Anfield, so not sure about his pockets
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mugged a 60% fit VVD is a claim to fame is it now? He still went missing in another big game. We are disappointed he isn't playing.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
60%no player plays at 60% match fitness. Drama queen

Disappointed Lukaku isn't playing personally as would have been in Matip's pocket again like earlier in the season. Will be tougher against Havertz, Pulisic etc.

It has nothing to do with his right to express his opinion. He can make his views known to those that matter in many ways.
Its is about his total lack of maturity, respect and professionalism as to the appropriate way to express his opinion.
He is clearly a very immature person.

A 28 year old who doesn’t know when or how to keep his mouth shut, who had a tantrum when someone said he isn’t world class, who couldn’t face being on Twitter because he was about to play his old club United and because Inter fans didn’t like him.
He’s a tube, feck him.

Also nice to see Liverpool are still changing match officials whenever they feel like it

You can look at that both ways though. A lot of pressure on Tierny if he was offiating today. Personally glad he is not involved.
