Chelsea (N) - EFL Cup Final, Sun 25th Feb 2024 (3:00pm)

[Razoray]

The 11 that played the 2nd period of ET cost £140m. £75m of that was on Van Dijk. 

I ran out of numbers counting the cost of the Chelsea 11.

What a performance, what a manager.  Going to roam this thread throwing out rep until the gun is empty. 

I am already empty. Ffs.

Happy day. Happy thread.

I was thinking halfway through extra time that even if we went on to lose it would still be a performance to be really proud of. They had so many excuses not to win the game - yet another injury early on when they were already down to the bare bones, every little decision going against them in the game, already having 1 winning goal scandalously ruled out - and yet they just kept going and found a way to win. They rode their luck a bit in the final 10 minutes of normal time, but other than that spell were by far the better team throughout and were fully deserved winners. Everyone was outstanding, but special mentions for Kelleher, Konate and van Dijk. 

 

There are always peaks and troughs in Cup finals and they rode them extremely well.

 

I'm still stunned at the ruled out goal and the lack of a yellow card for Caicedo, but we beat the Ref too so all is well in love and war. 

 

Get in, Redmen. Fuck Chelsea, fuck the refs. 

 

We're fuckin shite.

I was amazed they were going to interview Diaz then I realised they had the Spanish speaking woman to interview him!

[Captain Willard]

The Spanish woman interviewing Diaz in Spanish could have at least brushed her hair. Scruffy fucker.

Kelleher and Virg were incredible today. The kids did well. Elliot never stopped. Diaz kept trying even though it looked like his legs had gone.

 

Ice baths and oxygen tents all round.

 

The game could have went either way, and I feared in extra time their experience and names in the bench would make the difference, but thankfully it was the opposite. We were more composed in ET.

Say hi to Linda from me.

Turned it off finally as I couldnt take Keane or whoever it is on commentary making stupid points, apparently that was never a red but a yellow for sure and we were rattled on 90 minutes. Anyway, fuck that all for now, 10th League cup in the cabinet and all thanks to the kids.

Having foreign journalists, especially one's as lovely as Natalie Gedra, conducting interviews in Spanish/English and then translating into English/Spanish in real time isn't really fair on the likes of Redknapp, Neville or any number of other shite english pundits.

 

Makes them look like they got the gig as a make a wish.

Pics or GTFO.

Jurgen sticking it to the ref, saying he's not up to the standards. Great to hear that. Ref was a joke.

[Tj hooker]

If Alonso is watching that he must surely think that the amount of young talent coming through is insane and ripe for progression under a decent manager

[Megadrive Man]

Just when I thought I couldn't love this team anymore!

 

So fucking proud of all of them
