Liverpool suffered a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Galatasaray, and former player Phil Thompson now thinks his ex-side have been put at a disadvantage following a call from the referee in the 90th minute.Ibrahima Konate had a goal ruled out by VAR earlier in the second half, with UEFA releasing a statement on the disallowed effort on March 11.However, it was not Konate’s effort that Thompson was disappointed by, but instead the fact that Davinson Sanchez was shown a yellow card in the 90th minute and is now suspended for the next game. Is it time for Liverpool to move on from Ibrahima Konate?

Would you be too disappointed to see him leave this summer?Credit: Burak Basturk/Middle East Images/AFP/Getty Images Phil Thompson wanted Davinson Sanchez to play second leg at AnfieldLiverpool fans probably remember Sanchez from his time at Tottenham Hotspur, where he put in some questionable displays.He once again looked shaky in the first-leg tie on March 10, and Thompson is ‘gutted’ he won’t feature at Anfield next week.Speaking to The Official Liverpool FC Podcast, he said: “I’m disappointed, you know, Sanchez got booked late on, misses the game, I’m gutted. “I’m gutted, he’s a liability, Sanchez, as he proved at Spurs when he was there, he takes too many risks, he’s a liability.

I’d rather have him on the pitch. I’m just thinking, he’s gonna miss the second leg, I’d rather have him there.”Liverpool players at risk of Champions League banAs per UEFA’s current rules, a player will be suspended if they pick up three yellow cards in the competition, as Sanchez has done.Those bookings do not reset until after the quarter-final stage, which means Liverpool could still lose players in the coming match weeks.However, only two Reds players are close to a one-game ban right now, with Conor Bradley, who is out for the remainder of the season anyway, one of them.The second is Curtis Jones, who hasn’t been a consistent starter this term, but is one of the only options Slot currently has to cover Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch at the base of midfield.Join Our NewsletterReceive a digest of our best Liverpool content each week direct to your mailbox
