Will FA ban Erling Haaland for swearing on live TV?

Erling Haaland was seen swearing in live tv during Manchester City Premier League celebrations

Erling Haaland is poised to appear in the FA Cup final over Manchester United next month, but opposition fans want him suspended.

The Manchester City attacker was captured on Sky Sports unleashing the f-bomb after addressing midfielder Jack Grealish about just how much he adored him after his team's 1-0 win against Chelsea on the afternoon of Sunday.

Man United supporters have since demanded for the Norwegian forward be banned from the English final on June 3 at Wembley Stadium. It follows after Wayne Rooney was suspended in 2011 for cursing into a recording device.

While Grealish was being questioned on Sky Sports, Haaland grabbed him and exclaimed, "I f*g love you." Rooney was barred from the FA Cup after shouting and glaring down the camera during Man United's 4-2 win over West Ham United.

The England goalscorer had to sit out the semi-final against Manchester City, a match that they were to go on losing because of Yaya Toure's strike.

Man United supporters were eager to turn to social media after Haaland swore:

On said: “So Haaland swears on live tv for no valid reason but the Fa won’t do anything about it. Rooney swore back in 2011 after scoring a crucial goal in the title race and was banned missing the fa cup semi final against City. Haaland here should be banned for 3 games. @FootballAssoc.”

A second posted: "I recall Rooney missing a FA Cup semi final doing the same thing. Shouldn't be any different. Ban is the only correct action here but of course the FA s***houses won't do a thing.”

However, it is known that FA administrative chiefs are sceptical that any punishment is warranted and that no investigation is planned.

Verbal abuse during interviews with the media does not automatically result in prosecution.

Complaints would be brought only if Wembley beaks judged that the conditions and tone of the remarks were serious enough to warrant action, with each instance being evaluated on an individual basis.
