As Thiago Silva proclaimed, “it’s time” for Liverpool to win the Carabao Cup, they secured a place in the final against Chelsea at Wembley.
With a 1-1 tie in the second leg of the semi-final match, the Reds were able to beаt Fulham 3-2 on aggregate. The game-winning goal for Jurgen Klopp’s squad came from Luis Diaz.After a 6-2 thrashing of Middlesbrough by Chelsea, the championship game at the national stadium will be a rematch of the 2022 final. Two years ago, following a scoreless draw, Liverpool won the match in a penalty shootout. That same season, Liverpool also won the FA Cup final at Wembley thanks to a penalty shootout victory over Chelsea.
During Silva’s five years with Chelsea, the club has gone to three domestic finals, two of which were defeated by Liverpool. This is the national stadium, and the seasoned defender intends to win it all.
“Now we have another final at Wembley,” Silva said following the west London outfit’s 5-1 second-leg win over Middlesbrough. I believe I lost each of the three times I went there. Now is the time to win, don’t you agree?”
Consideration of a January transfer deadline for Jhon Duran is being given by Chelsea
Villa paid MLS club Chicago Fire £18 million to sign 20-year-old Duran last summer, but Unai Emery has started Ollie Watkins in central striker roles instead, therefore Duran has not played a Premier League game yet this season.
Villa turned down West Ham’s offer of a loan with a buyout clause this week, despite the fact that the Colombian international has two goals in twenty-four games across all competitions.
Mauricio Pochettino’s Chelsea are reportedly “weighing up an offer” for Duran before next Thursday’s transfer deadline, and he is also on Chelsea’s shortlist.Even though Chelsea can’t promise the Villa striker greater playing time, the article states that Duran is eager to get it.
Duran is playing and making an impact, and he is still young, according to Unai Emery, who was asked about his future earlier this month. We are in need of life experiences, and he is providing them to us right now.
Our goal is to have a good roster, so we need a second striker so we can have two players in each position. Those two are Jhon Duran and [Ollie] Watkins.He is becoming more dedicated to our work, and I am enjoying our collaboration.
“The process we are doing with him is it,” they said when they decided to sign him a year ago.
