While both clubs were missing footballers because of injuries, Liverpool’s head coach was forced to field a few academy graduates and ended the match for the trophy with 3 teenagers on the pitch — the highest number in a League Cup Final since 2007.

In the extra time, Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville called Chelsea players “billion-pound bottlejobs” as the new owner spent over 1 billion pounds for new players since the Blues were taken over during the summer of 2022.

The Blues’ head coach revealed today that he spoke with the owners, and they still back him. “Yes, yes, yes. They revealed their support. And then, after the match, Todd also sent me an encouraging message: yes.

“We are in contact. I said hello when I saw them at the venue, and after, during the night, I met Behdad, and yes, we are in constant discussion.”
