So, so happy for Pep especially. :050:
That is the “he’s yet to win a trophy in this country yet” monkey off his back*
*Stand by for the media “.....but it’s ONLY the League Cup” :040: :040:
Massively important victory for Pep and the players to build and cement their confidence after a tough week and in the face of the upcoming fixtures. Cannot underestimate just how critical it was to secure that victory, Pep’s first trophy and to shake off the doubts from Monday.
No one can say it was lucky, they may decry how garbage Arsenal were but you can only play what is put in front of you. When we won the FA Cup in 2011 we played the defeated finalists Stoke later that same week as well. Time to repeat that double feat :026:
