League Cup Final - Post Match Thread

[eyalluvitt]

Typical City last week, New City this week,

 

[bearcityblu]

Bollocks. He makes himself sound stupid when he comes out with statements like that saying it was 100% offside. He clearly does not know the rules.

 

[OntarioBlue]

Wegner - we controlled them quite well....second goal was offside!

Even though VAR reviewed it and rightly agreed Sane did not interfere.

Wenger really is a bitter, classless knob. Ospina had already committed and was going the wrong way. There was absolutely no way he was getting to the ball regardless of where Sane was standing. Talking of classless, what the f..k is Wilshere's problem. If he concentrated on playing football instead of diving around and whining to the referee he'd be a decent player.

Thierry Henry respects Pep too much to be remotely salty about our win(refreshing in punditry)

Its just posturing,trying to blame anyone but himself.

 

[Bluep*ss]

Nope. He's whining about Sane being in an offside position for Vinnie's goal.

The second ?......

 

[Kompany Car]

What a great team we have and a humble manager who rightly didnt want to take the limelight away from the players. First trophy in the bag for this year, repeat performance (of second half) on Thursday please and then ee can concentrate on the Chumps league. Right time for another celebratory beer. CTID

 

[Eaglechief]

Did someone in the pre match thread predict Bravo would get an assist?

Yes, I think someone mentioned he might get two assists yesterday, can't remember who it was, but well done to that man for being so accurate.

 

[mosssideblue]

Kin hell Ratboy really laid into Arsenal during commentary.

Great result even though we didn't get into 5th gear - saving that for Thursday :)
Happy days

 

[GornikDaze]

They did reshow it live and said in live commentary that VAR had confirmed after review that it was not interfering by Sane. Which it clearly wasn't.

That was my point...

 

[SWP's back]

Pretty much crushed the game....

Aguero was lethal and it was a great finish. So pleased for Vinny - he played well and yet another trophy for him to lift. (i presume he is our most decorated Capt?)

Silva was Motm for me even when below par in the first half.

Though Ilky was poor today...gave the ball away too many times and playing KDB out wide weakened our ball retention. Sane had a very good game but just needs a bit more end product at time and Danilo had a great game defensively. Just a shame he cannot offer as much as Mendy and Walker do. Bravo nearly had a mare but got away with it big time and thankfully he wasn't called upon very much. Arsenal were poor and their fans will be rightly outraged at that performance...but Wiltshire is a dirty cheating little shit.

Hope Ferna is ok as we do need him.

First cup of many hopefully for Pep to keep shoving it down the throats of the media who said/prayed he couldnt hack it here.

All of that and nothing about Bravo’s double save, assist or coming out and snuffing our danger three times....

[bluemurray]

Vinegar Face a.k.a Wenger has just stated that Arsenal 'controlled' the game... errmm ok....

 

[kaz7]

But you said we would lose as Bravo was playing

grow up and enjoy the win

What the fans would have wanted to hear him say is that their players just did not work hard enough today. They gave in. Think he must be gone after this because he might only get a Europa place now thanks to us winning today and adding that extra qualification slot to the league places.

So he might be glad of that (not) offside second goal.

 

[welsh_andy]

Bitterness from rag mates already. It's fucking priceless. It's a trophy plus pl pretty much wrapped up. Can I dream of treble oh fuck yes. Can't wait to watch when finish

 

[mosssideblue]

grow up and enjoy the win

How ironic you telling me to grow up after all the shit you posted this week.

But I will enjoy the win all the same

 

[Peggy's a blue]

I said all along Bravo would be grand ;-)

 

[jimharri]

The second ?......

Yep.

 

[Bluep*ss]

Am I right in thinking that Arsene went up to maybe get a losers Manager medal....but I did not see pep up there.....stayed on the pitch ?
