If UEFA allows members to discriminate against players due to their nationality, what is to stop a member from discriminating against players due to their colour or gender or religion or sexual preference?
Kante not making it would even out Ramsey not playing.
Does anyone else see it really ridiculous that football in general is totally against racism, but Europa League final country can ban certain country's player to not participate? How is this different?
But not as good as switching the venue. This is UEFA being cynically calculating, are you telling me if an Armenian team qualified for the final they should not be allowed to play in it?Because the countries have been at war for like 30 years, it's different from throwing bananas and making monkey noises. It's probably better for Mkhitaryan's safety.
I read up on some of the recent tensions, Armenian hatred is widespread there.
In the 2000’s an Armenian solider was taking part in a NATO peace program in Hungary with soldiers from all over the world. He was murdered in his sleep with an axe by an Azerbaijani participant. He made it clear in his trial it was an ethnic killing. He got sentenced to life in Hungary but got extradited back to Azerbaijan to serve the rest of his sentence.
However when he got back to the country, he received a hero’s welcome at the airport, was pardoned on the spot by the president and promoted from private to major.

F*ck Azerbaijan and f*ck UEFA.
This sh!t will never happen in Africa.
African people don’t mix politics with sports. Two countries could be beefing but if one of them has a superstar, the other nation will root for him just as hard as his own nation. That’s how we get down in the greatest continent on the planet.
All politicians should be dumped in the desert with no water or food.

"Naïve and obtuse." Yeah sure, it's fun to be contrarian. Stick out in a crowd and all that. Some things are right, some things are wrong. There is no grey about one of our players being treated like a dog and denied access to a final. You're happy with that, cool. But that's what it is, there is no moral justification for it however much not white and black it may be or not be.I'm not gonna start defending UEFA's decisions.
I'm just sick of everyone acting like things are black and white, its a grey world. Don't say **** like "omg if they discriminate against someones nation why would't they with race and gender?". Like stop being naive & obtuse and do some research.

This parrot wants Arsenal to have every chance of winning a trophy. You clearly couldn't give a ****.I'd rather be a contrarian than a parrot that's just repeating what other people are saying without looking at the nuance or doing any research myself. You're doing what conservatives would call 'virtue signalling', trying to show how morally correct you are while ignoring the perspective.

Haha
I already do that. This is just lil some, some for me. It is a dream to watch Arsenal in a European final.
I am still searching for the match ticket.
Is this a reliable website?

That's the best answer you could have given, that you don't care if he plays or not because he's unlikely to make the difference. Still doesn't affect the principle which is cast-iron, no discrimination against players. But you should have called me Horatio as you seem to be playing Iago yourself!The worlds bigger than football, Iago. Plus not like Mkhitaryan is gonna make much of a difference anyway.
There's a link to the murder weapon there as well.
Brutal stuff.
