They'll lose on penalties after another 0-0 "thriller"

Given the way we capitulated at Anfield recently, I'd take a boring 0-0 and take my chances in a 50/50 penalty shootout.

At least you won't have Kepa in goal fucking up another final.

I hope you're right mate. I believe in the players we've signed. I think they're for the most part all good pros, talented kids who can be brilliant, some of them already are, but I'd be lying if I said I had the same belief in Poch and this ownership.

A good chance they will bar that Jackson.
I just don't get it with him.
Cue a hatrick on Saturday.lol.

Jackson had less than 50 top flight games to his name when we signed him. I think there's good potential in him. People clown him a lot but he actually puts in a good shift and contributes well in most games he plays. I'd much rather start Jackson over any of the following ..

Mudryk
Sterling
Madueke
Broja

He's definitely one of the players I have full belief in.

I'm sorry but the last finals you played against the dippers were far too tight. This time the scousers will win on penalties in normal time.

Lol on penalties, in normal time? Just exactly how many penalties do you think Jota and Diaz will con out of the ref?

Enough to win the game.

If at first you don't succeed ....

Best of luck in the final, anyway.

I’m here to predict a 4-0 Chelsea win. Van Dijk own goal and Klopp tears at the final whistle and the headlines the next day about what a sad day for football it is that Liverpool lost.

I’d love you to be right, but sadly, I can’t see it.

Gritty performance today at the Etihad and maybe they can string two performances together and give the Dippers a run for the money at Wembley , need to start practising their penalties.

Don't really give a fuck about the Carabao final, needed a gritty performance from them at Anfield and they typically shat the bed.

Perversely i would quite like the first leg of the Dipper quadruple to fall at the first hurdle ,it would be amusing :)

 

[Gorbachev]

They have greatly underachieved this season.

Showed against us and Villa they are a capable top 6 team.

Pochettino has a lot to answer for this season.

Best of luck to Chelsea next weekend.

Thought they were great at breaking but their finishing was shite. They should really have scored four today. That Jackson is a handful though. Had Dias on Toast today.

They won't have much chance to break against Liverpool though which seems to be their biggest threat from their play.
Caicedo and Gallagher will be on yellows within the first 15 minutes too when they play in the Jurgen Klopp Memorial Carabou Cup Trophy Final too which will fuck up their spoiler tactics instantly.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Gallagher is twice the player Enzo is, mostly for his mad pressing.

Funny watching Jackson going mad at Enzo for messing up his shot so badly!

 

[Vialli98]

We played well today. I thought we’d get battered, but I felt we should have won that comfortably in the end. No idea why Poch randomly decides to abandon what was working so well for us and have the team sit so deep the last 15-20 mins. Our threat on the counter was brilliant and we carved City open again and again. Very frustrating result in the end.
