I think that was more in the context of who they were up against. They’ll never have a better chance against the bigger clubs in a final than that.

Sure...but I still think bottling is really simplifying it. The 11 Liverpool put out would beat the current Chelsea side more often than not in my opinion. Add to that respective form and the fact that Klopp leaving adds extra motivation I don't see this as bottling it from Chelsea.
Not to mention they took it to extra time. That's not bottling it, that's exceeding expectations I think.
Please ... that 11?
- No Allison, Salah, Nunez, Jota, Trent, Thiago, Szoboszlai, Jones, Matip
- Three teenagers -> Jayden Danns, Bobby Clark and James McConnell
- Liverpool basically finished the game with #62 Kelleher, #42 Clarke, #78 Quansah, #4 VVD, #21 Tsimikas, #53 McConnell, #3 Endo, #2 Gomez, #19 Elliott, #76 Danns, #7 Diaz (If you are being kind, 3 first team players)
- Reminder, Chelsea played Gusto, Chilwell (Chalobah), Enzo, Caicedo, Gallagher (Madueke), Palmer, Sterling (Nkunku), Jackson (Mudryk),
I put the numbers for a reason, basically Chelsea played a Liverpool team that ended the game with 3 first team players, 3 players that literally played in the last PL2 U21 game and some B teamers. And Poch's tactic in extra time against that was to play out for penalties
That's fudging embarrassing and an utter bottle job, that Liverpool 11 should not beat any PL side, none ..

They lost 1-0 in extra time a cup final to a very good team, regardless of injuries. If you think that’s bottling it…then fudge every game must have 1 team bottling it.

I hate the bottling it talk that seems to happen after any team loses, it’s ridiculous.
I very much disagree with your rating of the 2 sides that were put out on the day though. Liverpool were missing an entire 11, basically starting the only 11 senior players he had fit. Chelsea should have won that, even more so with the longer the game went on and the squads available to each manager!

Yeah but Liverpool’s starting XI is still very good. That doesn’t change, no matter how many players they had out and ignoring the players that came off the bench. Chelsea would be spewing they’ve missed a huge opportunity to win a cup final. But they’ve been absolutely awful all season, and consistently lost to worse teams than Liverpool put out. It’s hardly them bottling it. Bottling it would have Chelsea towards the top of the table, doing very well.
Everything has to be a fudging meme or banter these days.
No mate, they lost to a squad wearing the jersey's of a very good team. I repeat -> no Allison, Salah, Nunez, Jota, Trent, Thiago, Szoboszlai, Jones, Matip
I would expect a full strength Fulham, Wolves, Saudi Sportswashing Machine and yes, Chelsea to win that game.
The bottle if you didn't get it, is playing that team, getting away with 90 minutes, when they had to go to ET and Liverpool had to put 3 (under 19) academy kids on while Chelsea got to bring on Chalobah, Mudryk, Nkunku & Madueke, one team decided to still try to win (not Chelsea) while the other played for penalties?

So glad we got rid of bottletino, it was obviously him holding us back, I mean look at what we've achieved since.
The narrative here is hilarious.
He's gone, he's moved on, time some of the supporters did the same.

And why do you care that people want to have fun at the expense of Chelsea? what next, should we not celebrate when Arteta and the Scum bottle brick too?

Caicedo and Fernandez costing near 250m has to be up there as the worst transfer business of all time.

Those quotes to me are a snapshot of why he won’t ever be a truly elite coach. He used the same words when we lost to Chelsea in the fa cup ie he was “proud”. He’s not at Klopp, Pep, Simeone, Ancelotti level. He’s a notch below.

Bottled it in the sense they were up against an injury depleted side with various youngsters and loads of key players out but stopped playing in injury time.

Do you mean Enzo or the recorder? Because I don't think sports players being subject to ribbing is new. It comes with the territory, sticks n stones innit.
