I thought we did everything but score. Casual jogging? Completely disagree about that. Effort was there, just snatched chances, and WHU defended well

What about create some goal scoring chances? It was way too slow, wasn't until foden and jesus came on to up the tempo that we even started to get into potential scoring positions. Kdb threw a few trademark mini-strops which seemed to be indicating towards not having the movement infront of him he wanted. What chances did we create? The only chances we had were snap shots from outside or barely in the box and the odd bit of individual play
 
I’m more disappointed in the fact that we get to see us play less now we’ve been knocked out.I want to watch us midweek and weekend every week if I can !

Well if he did, fair fucks to him.

Klopp does it every season and he's picked up the champions league and the dipper's first ever premier league title.

you can only judge tonight with what you win at the end of the season. pep will never throw a game and wants to win the toss for the kick off,
we want to win the league cup again but sadly we could not break down west ham that played for pens

I hope Phil learns from that miss. It looked a bit half-arsed tbh.

I have to agree pal. Thought he almost looked OVERCONFIDENT.

With how he's been playing, I can't blame him. Hopefully comes back stronger.
 
Bayern lost 0-5 in the german league cup today , we lost on penalties , it happens.
What worries me is our problem with penalties, if we'll get a penalty shoot-out in the CL at one point we're out of the competition.
 
Disappointing to lose ‘our’ cup but we weren’t quite at it tonight. Neither were they. One of those games we throw in periodically where we just don’t look like scoring.

Hopefully the 4 games we will ‘save’ our legs from will benefit us in the other 3 comps.

The flip side of that is that a few players will get considerably less game time over the coming months.

Dust ourselves off and bounce back on Saturday.
 
5 in a row would of been great, no denial in that, but we’re out of the Micky mouse cup, so concentrate and tighten ship for the league and Europe. FA cup will be a bonus, but see how it goes.
 
Right now there's a gulf in class between Bernardo, Rodri, Foden, Grealish and Jesus and those who replace them.

When all players who are currently in good form are available, we are probably better than last season. But some squad players are not on form and our level drops seriously when they play.

Shit happens, though. Bayern lost 5:0 with most of their stars today.

Ake was good, Palmer as well. Zinch was decent.

This season, we have to concentrate on the PL and the CL. 4 more league cup games might have been at the expense of good results in the PL.
 
Sigh. Things could be worse — we could be rag fans. There's thousands and thousands of them (I'm told…)
By the way, was wondering the other day. When did we last get beaten — at our own gaff — 5-0? Or 6-1?
It must go back years and years and years.
