United will have little trouble against them in the final, a handy 2-0 or so :-(

Unfortunately true. I was hoping for a Liverpool win tonight, to give utd a decent game in the final.

No, you can't excuse poor refereeing because "we should have scored ourselves anyway"

You had 180 min to score a goal.

Give over blaming the ref for not being able to beat your reserve team

You waste your chances you take that chance.

The blame for the failure lies with Liverpool, over two legs the clear, deserved winners have gone through

Can't have any real complaints as something were the best team in both legs, strange how the League Cup is big again and no longer a mickey mouse cup :pac:

Coming across Very bitter. Southampton deserved the win. I doubt their fans think it's a Mickey Mouse cup

180 minutes creating **** all, Southampton well deserved. Hope they can do it now.

Looked like a perfectly good challenge on my screen.

Are we any closer than we were under Houllier, Benitez, Rodgers? Debatable.

Best team first day but liverpool clearly better team tonight. You can't argue that.

Tonight Liverpool had all the ball but did nothing with it, created a couple of chances but Southampton created the better chances again tonight

I have no idea how you construed that post as "bitter".

Bizarre.

Dirty Dingus McGee

Ever since Klopp opened his mouth and said how annoying it must be for Chelsea to go on their best run ever but only be 6 points in front at the top, Liverpool have gone to the dogs.

A coincidence no doubt but managers really shouldn't comment on other teams.

The didn't though you could argue that Liverpool could have had two pens too. Everything an underdog does well we seem to give them double or treble the credit. Liverpool were the better side tonight and should have won the game.

And Southampton were one nil up coming into this game so even having all the ball was inevitable.

Liverpool fans need to look at reality and realise Southampton were quite simply superb over the two legs.

Klopp will surely be sacked if he doesn't get top 4, he has no hope in cups competitions

Have a look in the utd thread.

Well deserved by Southampton. Better team over both legs despite possession stats, which mean f-all if there is no result at the end.
Liverpool are so bad at getting teams to spread themselves, think they have been figured out to an extent. Sorely missing Mane who is a different option and forces movement. We look very lackluster when teams pack the box and play on the break. A lot of sloppiness sneaking in too.

January has been a f**king awful month for Liverpool. Need to shake this loss off and kick ourselves up the arse for the weekend. Gratz to Southampton and Shane Long. Best mate supports them and is already booking tickets to London

Sgt Pepper 64

how did Liverpool lose when they bought all of Southampton's best players?

Created a couple of very decent opportunities that weren't converted

Not sure why I'm even writing a reply, you've no interest in discussion.

But anyway, Liverpool most likely will get top 4, and if they don't it will be a disappointing season. It will still, however, be Klopp's first full season (after joining last year 8 games in and having no pre-season or time to sign players). Just less than two years at the club and falling just short of your goals would not warrant being sacked, not at all.

no he won't. thats very silly. Sure didn't we get to the Europa League and League Cup final last year?

You are implying that Southampton don't deserve to go through and also that they thought this competition was a Mickey Mouse cup prior to the game
Give them credit they deserve
As for your Utd thread rant, Yea no idea I think you are having a added winge for a bonus

Carra says no peno no corner, implying a dive

LuckyGent88

Both carragher and Le tissier say it wasn't a penalty at the end and think they are bang on.

Fully deserved win over the two legs for Southampton. Liverpool didn't really create much bar the sturridge one he put over the bar. For all the possession yee had, there was no cutting edge.

On the replay, it looks like a dive by Origi.

Seems neither Carragher nor Le Tiss thought it was a penalty. Reading here you'd think it was a stonewaller.

What happened in your life for such hatred of Liverpool and not other teams like Man Utd (esp as you a Leeds fan) etc?

I'm not sure the long ball game suits Liverpool.

It's always the way with certain posters here, Liverpool never deserve to lose, there's always some outside influence causing it.

I genuinely didn't think it was penalty in the first place. And Alan Smith was saying that they've got away with it, but every replay i've seen suggests the Southampton player won the ball.

Nice finish from Longy

Oirigi made some meal of that... Looked like he some sort of fit.

nice_guy80

Liverpool need to work on their long ball game

Lovely Bloke

I don't think Origi dived, but he wasn't fouled either. Those are not mutually exclusive outcomes.

BMMachine

should I bring up gloryhunting now or later to save us all a lot of time?
think the mods might have a conniption though!

Same here. I thought it was when I first saw it. Like they said though, Origi's fall just doesn't look right. Anyway; it's nice to see a "smaller" club get to Wembley. Hard to see Hull repeating the dose tomorrow night though.

limnam

Liverpool look they could do with an Andy Carroll type player.

I wonder if klopp has considered Crouchy. He was exactly what was needed tonight.

Lovely Bloke

Klopp complaining about how the other team played. Again.
