Chelsea v Liverpool : League Cup semi-final second leg, 27/1 @ 19:45

[Gilly?]

The ref has been pretty poor for both sides. Both teams should be down to 10 and Chelsea should of had a penalty.

 

[silkyman]

Any chance Costa will pick up a ban?

Yeah, I agree.

I'm guessing the ref didn't see the Costa stamps so he could miss the final through a retrospective ban.

 

[Ebeneezer Goode]

Weird choice from Rodgers.

 

[Blitzballer]

Michael Oliver has always been a shit ref

 

[Gilly?]

Racist attack on Sterling!! Fuck you Terry!

 

[Stevencc]

Dat Balotelli tache

 

[Gilly?]

I wish I could but no matter how hard I try I can't hate Balotelli.

 

[Whitechapel]

Two stamps from Costa, 8 more and he'll get a free coffee.

 

[Gilly?]

Did I just see some work rate from Balotelli?

 

[silkyman]

Is it away goals before or after extra time?

 

[Ebeneezer Goode]

Keeping Gerrard on is madness. Can't cover the ground and makes mistake and mistake.

 

[Whitechapel]

Is it away goals before or after extra time?

After.

 

[silkyman]

0-0 then please!

 

[Gilly?]

I'm scared.

 

[Stevencc]

0-0 then please!

They'll still have adequate recovery time - I get your point and any advantage is worth taking in those big games but it's the late kick off on Saturday and they already have home advantage in their favour.

 

[Gilly?]

Set pieces again.

 

[Tilbury]

Yes.

 

[Storzy]

Now Liverpool score and so we can get pens!

 

[Gilly?]

Oh Henderson, you should have done better!

 

[Stevencc]

I don't know how Henderson has managed to head that off target from there.

 

[Ebeneezer Goode]

So shit from Henderson.

 

[Gilly?]

It amazes me Costa is only on a yellow.

Gerrard and Costa, both a pair of tarts.

 

[Stevencc]

Costa is constantly scrapping

 

[Whitechapel]

Costa is a complete disgrace.

 

[shane]

I'm beginning to understand what every other fan felt like when playing against us when we had Suarez.

 

[Gilly?]

Chelsea deserve to have two goals removed for that effort from Ramires.

 

[Storzy]

Deserved win for Chelsea in the end. Liverpool struggled to make an impact after a promising first half.

 

[Tilbury]

Made it far too difficult for ourselves but we're there and that's all that matters.

 

[Stevencc]

Great tie in the end - Chelsea deserved winners but Liverpool were impressive over both legs. Mignolet even performed a passable impression of a good keeper tonight
