It’s Carabao Cup Or Nothing – Klopp

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says victory at Arsenal is proof how much they take seriously the Carabao Cup.

The Reds are into the final against Chelsea after the 2-0 second-leg semifinal win in London.

Afterwards, Klopp denied that the League Cup has never mattered to him during his time at the club.

“No, it is not true,” Klopp said. “The situation is always around what time of the year is it? Who is available? How many games have they played?

“I cannot just pick a team by looking at the full squad on paper and just pick an 11 for the game based on that.
“We have to consider a lot of things and we always did that, but you need a lot of luck in certain times and specific moments.

“We have never had that and we have always had really tricky draws on top of that early on and in games we could not line up a Premier League team [in the Cup] three days before [a Premier League game].

“It hasn’t always been unlucky but it is not always the easiest draw. So it is all good, we want to go for everything.

“It doesn’t mean we have won this already but we will be there at the end of February but unfortunately the opponent will as well.”
