Must make it even harder when he's not playing.

I think id struggle to be in top top form in training in the bloody freezing cold of January and February, and now the snow in March, and I'm born and bred british. Let alone carting my family half way across the world. And Scarpa had a really good season in Brazil so probably put a huge shift in with his club to get them over the line. I'm willing to be patient.

Same, after the international break seems an ideal time to feed him into the side.

Come on lads there are Brazilians who play in Ukraine and Russia for Gods sake.

How much snow have you had half an inch?

He's been here since December, how can he still be tired from playing in Brazil.

Just get him in the bloody team and let him show us what he can do.

Please take with as big a pinch of salt as you wish….but…

The rumour is that Scarpa has fallen victim to a crypto scam along with Mayke a Palmeiras player and they have lost over $2m. He is currently on his way back to Brazil, pic on his instagram at the airport.

Would be delighted to see Scarpa in the No.10 role on Friday, drop Jesse. Danilo in the middle with Ryan and Jonjo, I’m convinced we’d be a completely different team.

In reality I look forward to another pedestrian performance from Remo and Colback, at least Wood isn’t likely to feature. I hate to be so negative, but the last few performances have been absolutely abhorrent to watch - we must shake things up!

Scarpa been scammed.

With quotes from Cooper now explaining this is why he's not been involved recently. Aside from the distress on a personal level for Scarpa which is obviously upsetting for him. Yet another player unavailable for us, our luck continues!

I'm pretty sure I saw somewhere that he was only there for a day to appear in court & that he's back already.
I can't think where I saw it now & I have no idea if he is in any position to play on Friday even if he is back. I hope so.

He was only in Brazil for one day.
He was back in the UK on Tues.
He’ll be on the bench

Felipe absolutely immense last night.

How Scarpa didn't get on the pitch earlier is criminal considering what the rivals for his position offered.

Agree on Felipe

Scarps didnt train most of the week and obviously has other things on his mind. I’m surprised he was even in the squad.
