2014/15 Capital One Cup

Agree to disagree then because I really didn't think there was anything in it and clearly the ref didn't either.

Ref was following play from what I can see. I'm sure he would have carded Matic if it was on the ball.

Chelsea huge favourites to qualify now and a massive disappointment for them if they don't.

Yep we should be huge favourites, but it'd easily be as much a disappointment for you guys if you don't win it as this is probably the cup you've got the best chance of winning

Well it's the cup we have the best chance of winning because we are already just 90 mins away from the final.

Chelsea will be favourites in the second leg, they are very hard to beat on their own turf. But you never know, we're a good side. Im confident we can go there and get a result. Chelsea will have to come out and actually play, try an attack.

You don't watch much of Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, hey?

You do get what Chelsea tries to do over 2 legs don't you?

0-0 good enough for Chavski after ET in the second leg. Jose will keep it tight.

0-0 not good enough. Pretty sure away goals dont count. So if it's 0-0 it goes to pens.

Unless im completely wrong.

Away goals don't count after 90 mins but do after 120.

 

[jod23]

Away goals don't count after 90 mins but do after 120.

That's a bizarre rule. So doesnt extra time just really help Chelsea or the team with the home game second.

Strange.

Also if it end 1-1 at Stamford Bridge, goes to extra time and both teams score. Finishing 2-2, we go through? On away goals?

All very weird.

No way we'll play like that at home, we'll be our usual SB selves.

 

[Cruyff14]

Almost certain away goals count. Would defeat the purpose of having two legs, no?

You're half wrong. The correct answer is the post under yours.

Blocked Sterling's run then it looked like they got tangled up on the ground, Sterling trying to stand up to rejoin the attack but restricted by Matic's Undertaker style death hold.

It was Terry.

 

[Jatz]

I was going to say, I thought it was Terry. Assumed everyone else was right when they said Matic.

Skrtel should have come in and whacked Terry with the steel chair!

 

[thecatattack]

2v1 handicap match. Skrtel and Lucas vs Costa.

 

[Jatz]

Not sure the forearm to the face was necessary.

Funny though.

 

[Loonerty]

Funny though.

And to add insult to injury Lucas just gives Costa the Stinkface.

 

[Gak Attack]

Why is he holding the left side of his face anyways?

 

[Rough_Edges]

Chelsea resorting to some interesting tactics to contain Sterling!

Did he end up locking in the figure four leg lock as well?

Meh. Costa is a campaigner. Deserved.

The Fellaini defence.

I'm listening to some US commentator. Absolute ******.

I reckon, how s**t was he. Wasn't sure if I was watching English or American Football.

"go ahead goal". most cringeworthy commentary phrase around used by the yanks.
