League Cup final Chelsea V Spurs

Looks a cracking match Chelsea should be too strong but Spurs have a decent recent record against the blues in the league cup ( won the two most recent League Cup meetings, beating Chelsea 2-1 after extra-time in the 2008 final and triumphing 5-1 at home in a 2002 semi-final second leg to win 6-3 on aggregate. )
Spurs are disadvantaged that they played away in Europe on Thursday night ..

how goes it?

If you take a magnifying glass and look at the picture carefully you can see Chelsea's name engraved on the trophy already.

I'm going to take a flyer and venture that it will be the only trophy they win this season !! :whistle:

Unibet,888sport and 32red(all under same ownership) are 40/17 that Kyle Walker gets a card.He will be up against Eden Hazard,should be 11/8.
If Stambouli starts,he is to big at 4/1 with same firms,should be 7/4.
Fabregas worth a look as well at 11/4,this ref has booked him a few times before,maybe he had a dodgy paella once

Chelsea players don't defend because they have to defend. They defend because they love it. That's why they win most finals."

Great performance, never under pressure

Had to have a chuckle. Matic the Chelsea player who was banned from playing in the final did a John Terry and appeared in full kit to collect a winners medal and celebrate on the field with the team. Unfortunately for him he has done his ankle when sliding along the grass with the rest of his team and is likely to miss the Champions League match v PSG next week.

I did players bookings.picked 2 from each side and all were carded.
11 bookings and one sending off,I didn't think it was that dirty.

The problem with Italian refs is that when they book a player in the opening 10 minutes then its their duty to book half of the players on the field for the rest of the match.
