Carling Cup final post match

[shanks69]

Does anyone agree Carra's lad has no place being there when the trophy is awarded?

other clubs have been doing it for a few years now,at least it was only carra i've seen it in the past were it seemed to be every player doing it.also in the past players take up a baby.

looks like john w henry was wearing a 96badge

I like werner a lot but henry comes across as a gimp.

I just can't see how he can sort that missus of his out on a regular basis. I reckon that lass of his must have a box of tricks bigger than paul daniels in his hayday.

anyway fair play to the glenn roeder lookalike for saving us from financial ruin.

I hope this victory shows the likes of Carroll, Adam, Henderson and Downing what it means to be a Liverpool player. We have the best fans in the world and you have to maintain a standard. They should feel inspired by this.

I'll take poor performance=silverware everytime

Absolutely

I think that people are being overly harsh and thinking that we should have won more comfortably as it was a Championship side we were up against, but there are no easy cup finals and Cardiff were there on merit and it was the game of a lifetime for most of them.

Look at all our cup finals since 2000:
2001 League Cup vs Birmingham - won on penalties
2001 FA Cup vs Arsenal - turned around in last 10 mins
2001 UEFA Cup vs Alaves - won late in extra time
2003 League Cup vs Man Utd - won in normal time
2005 League Cup vs Chelsea - lost in extra time
2005 Champions League vs AC Milan - won on penalties
2006 FA Cup vs West Ham - won on penalties
2007 Champions League vs AC Milan - lost in normal time
2012 League Cup vs Cardiff - won on penalties

Of those 9 finals only 1 has been close to comfortable the Man Utd one in 2003 and we only got the second goal in that game 10 mins before the end. There were some good teams in there who struggled against teams that on paper they should beat, the situation plays a big part in this and some of our players struggled to deal with that. We need to get used to playing in big matches and that is something that (most of) this group of players haven't experienced before.

We we're the better team and won. The end. However the midfield is still a major concern; it doesn't support the attack consistently and doesn't protect the defence.

The Gerrard-Adam partnership doesn't work, I was surprised Kenny went with it to be honest.

Both primarily want to attack but have either been told they also have defensive responsibilities and neither knows when to go or when to stay, so often we end up with either both attacking or neither attacking.

I suspect that Adam should be the one sitting deep most of the time, but for some reason I get the impression that Gerrard doesn't trust him to do it properly
