The thing is, we needed to play him against Palace and Villa so he could refind some form.
Now it looks like he'll miss Villa, even if he was fit for the final we'll have an unfit and slow(er) Kulu, which is no good to anybody.
I don't think Odobert is the answer, but I hope Ange has a Plan B.
Agree 100% in truth.
Kulusevski needed the minutes, amd arguably better he broke down (if true) before the final than during, where he would deny us a fit alternative, starting or off the bench.
Let's be clear and honest, aside from 3 or 4 players, Maddison being one on current form, anyone being out is not the end of the world, so average to poor they have all been at various times this season.
