Thiago Alcantara

Talking of surprises, I was wondering whether Klopp would opt for his traditional front three for the final but having seen Bobby’a atrocious return to the team, that’s definitely not happening.

That’s good news. Any degree of hamstring injury would have meant he was out.

Achilles is hardly a minor issue though. Generally they are not to be risked, at all.

Fingers crossed though, obviously.

Yeah but the report says it isn’t a serious injury.
So maybe it’s inflamed rather than a tear? Any kind of strain and surely he’d be ruled out already.

Again, looking at his mobility hoisting kids up onto shoulders, squatting down in the above pic it looks like it is minor. However that still doesnt guarantee he will be fit.

Would make a HUGE difference if he makes it.

It's all a pre-orchestrated ruse to throw Madrid off guessing our starting XI.

This thought is giving me hope.

That’s a little more encouraging!

Makes the Spain squad.

Saw another picture where he appeared to have strapping on his ankle.

[Buzzo]

This is him at FT. Not sure he could do sit like this with a pulled Hammy. Klopp also mentioned he seemed to have his kid on his shoulders - again not easy to do with a serious injury.

So could be mild, but that might still rule him out.

Do players deliberately hit the ball into the ground like that?

Imagine it'd difficult to pull off but makes it harder for the keeper to save

i very much doubt it. That was a scuff and a half....but went in, so all good
