League Cup Final Post - Match Thread

Two finals, two shoot-outs two trophies. Fantastic.

I think Jorginho is still running up to take his penalty. Slowest fucker I've ever seen on a pitch

Another bullet dodged, looks poor to me.

The situation with Arrizabalaga has overshadowed our victory.

Fucking wanker!

Another way to look at it though - the keeper thing helped us win it. Kepa - by staying on HAD TO be heroic and save 2 or 3 pens - but he actually put more pressure onto himself! Willy would have save the Ageuro one!

Hopefully it doesn’t include Palace, Leicester or Newcastle....

We couldn't really ask for more than whats in front of us with a few players out, that's the reason we have capable back up, but if you want to throw the towel in fair enough

Been away all weekend and only just got back in the house after a long drive so yet to see the game but get the fuck in you blue boys!

He looked miles off ,then they showed the VAR and he was level that should be a goal

Two things to say on Sergio's disallowed goal

1 -It wasn't a clear and obvious error which is what VAR is supposedly for. In cricketing terms that would have been umpires call, so agreeing with the official was the correct thing to do

2- Did you notice that the VAR line across the pitch jumped backwards when it showed Sergio to be level, to then show him offside?

U

utter disgrace

I'm exhausted,i'm too old for all this tension lol

Me too. Even in 1999 I was too old. And the shite before. How I've not keeled over watching City is beyond me.

Leroy showed why Pep hasn't been starting him, disappointing 50 mins or so and made no impact on the game. Has to do better on weds night.

Just watch the last minute of extra time and the penalties. That’s all there is to see!

 

[aguero93:20]

What’s beautiful is that not only was Kepa being a tit to not come off, he then looks even more of a tit trying to play the mind games and then still not save it because he’s a limp-wristed pussy.

We were almost guaranteed to win the shoot out after that, Sod's law :)

 

[warringtonblue]

No, look at the quality of our squad. Time to show maximum respect to all of our opponents and maximum respect to all of our players.

I don't think Pep ever show anything but the utmost respect for our opponents. I think he sometimes tries to be too clever moving people around but he knows better then me.

 

[dickie davies]

Not a great game today but who cares we won, but what I can't get my head around is a player refusing to come off? I thought manager says substitution they inform ref or 4th official and player has to come off for the player replacing him? I may be wrong but that is how I think it works

The player who is being substituted doesn't have to leave the pitch. It is his decision

Loving winning the league cup again. London is a shit hole i want to go home :-)

 

[wagonman]

Haven't read any of this thread yet (I will though, I promise) but right now I want to revel in the glory of City winning another trophy.

I have no need to read all the folk complaining about this player or that player or the manager's player selection.

Man City's team won the EFL Cup again!

FANTASTIC.

Well done lads... each and EVERY one of you.
