Carragher talking shit again, saying Klopp hasn't won enough trophies and then going on to praise 115 for being the best team in history without even a reference to their cheating

And people still defend this cnut on his discussion thread.

How many fucking league titles do you have, Carra?

We seem to face continuous obstacles this season but our manager and players keep on moving forward like an uncontrollable tidal wave and that can’t be underestimated.

Why is it always us who face these ticketing issues? Probably a combination of nerves and paranoia, but it almost feels like an attempt to unsettle the team before KO.

It's bad organisation at various ground, nothing else.

Nev: Let's hope Chelsea win!
Sky Sports’ Gary Neville:
“It would give Pochettino a huge confidence boost and make people feel Chelsea are on the right track. We’ve seen more from Chelsea in recent weeks that can is a base to take the club forward, they’ve been aggressive and been able to push up the pitch. Thaigo Silva has his limitations now and it causes an issue when you want to play aggressively.
“It feels like a team that Pochettino likes now, obviously they need to add some players to that in the summer. They’ve got a chance today.
“Let’s hope it’s a good game, and let’s hope Chelsea win!”

What is this BULLSHIT?

Think it’s both teams today. Just sounds like poor organisation/planning all round

Carragher is laughable really, bit like most of his 'defending'. Watched the gerrard fa cup final couple of days ago, cant really put into words, thats not even talking about his og.

DTRed · « **Reply #569 on:** February 25, 2024, 02:43:23 pm »

Our defence and midfield today has 6 regular first team starters out of the 7. This makes me think that we'll handle them well. If our front line are on it we could get it done in 90.

Not enjoying the medias idea that we're clear favorites especially considering our injury list.

Hoping the fact we have a team of players that work well together and a Manager who gets them working as a unit is enough to get us through this and beat those plastics in 90 mins.

Would be nice to see Gakpo keep up his habit of scoring in this comp (hope I didn't scud him)

Nervous yeah but we can do this.

The problem is though, digital tickets can't be guaranteed to work when there are such huge numbers involved. I can understand the annoyance about touting its something they need to get rougher on.
