Four weeks ago this looked like a sure thing.....no extra time and penalties needed for this cup final....How things have changed ;with the every growing injury list this has become a game that is a tough one to call and definitely not a result you can bet everything on. Hopefully Salah and Nunez are ok for this one. Personally I'm going down Sunday morning ...booked in Las Iguanas for a pre match bevvies and food at 11.30....our time slot to go into Wembley is 1.00 - 1.30    after the game we have tables booked in TGI'S for our winners ***** up ...see you there

If Nunez and Salah are available then I'd be more at ease. Read that Szobozlai might be available as well. It's gonna be a long afternoon if none of them play though.

Hope you have a great time over there supersub.

At full strength I'd be fairly confident but given the current injuries within the squad it's a bit of a coin toss . Won't be putting any money on this one but obviously hoping we can take the win.

Was checking out Met Office weather forecast for the game. It's gonna be cold with a high chance of some very heavy rain Sunday afternoon .
Have a great trip Supersub . Remember to wrap up warm mate .    YNWA

Our fans could end up being the difference, hopefully we’ll see lots of scarves and banners down there

I wouldn't say Chelsea are back but they are playing much better since we thrashed them.

Our issue is injuries, as other said If Salah and Nunez play then I'm confident we'll win.

Why do I feel this will be another final against them that ends on penos.

BTW Poch will be desperate to get his first trophy in Epl.

I think a good battle to watch and may be be pivotal is Enzo vs MacAlister. Enzo had his number the first time we played but MacAlister was dominant the last time we played. I see it being a tight match that will probably go to penalties, in which case it would be a tossup. Beside our injury issues, Chelsea has had extra rest and focus for this match, we played on Wednesday and Chelsea played last Saturday. This Liverpool team has grit and determination though, I hope that will be the difference.

This will be a very tough game. Chelsea's determination to get revenge for last years 2 final defeats v's Liverpool's determination to win it for Klopp. A battle royale.

Liverpool make two changes for today's Carabao Cup final with Chelsea at Wembley.

Ibrahima Konate and Andy Robertson return to the starting line-up, replacing Joe Gomez and Jarell Quansah from the team that began the midweek win over Luton Town.

Liverpool: Kelleher, Endo, Van Dijk, Konate, Diaz, Mac Allister, Gakpo, Elliott, Robertson, Gravenberch, Bradley.

Subs: Adrian, Gomez, Tsimikas, Clark, McConnell, Koumas, Danns, Quansah, Nyoni.



Not optimistic guys

Disappointing that a few bigger players aren't available and it will hurt our chances but it is what it is. I'd rather not rush them back for this as we have bigger fish we want to fry!!

Fully expect the lads to go out there and give a good account of themselves and they will have a chance. Our squad has been good enough to get us this far so have to trust them to see it out!!

Cmon the pool 

Going to need some solid performances from the lads.

Determination, synergy, no excuses !!

NIL DESPERANDUM  !!

We are Liverpool THIS MEANS MORE !!

Can't see us winning this unfortunately. Too many players out, plus the revenge factor from the Chavs. Our starting lineup doesn't convince me - Elliott, Gravenberch etc

Wouldn't surprise me if they have been left out as not to risk it as the league is more important.

Vicious foul by Chilwell on Conor
