The Carabao Cup has often been dismissed as an inferior piece of silverware.
In fairness, it is the least valuable of the three on offer in English football, though that shouldn’t take away from the magnitude of the performance Liverpool delivered on Sunday.
Ravaged by injuries – crucially missing Mo Salah, Dominik Szoboszlai and Darwin Nunez – the Merseysiders pulled off an unlikely victory in extra-time against an expensively assembled Chelsea side.
Despite that, some commentators, Piers Morgan included, took time to mock the achievement and Jurgen Klopp’s emotions.

Completely missed the point, Piers
With all due respect, Piers – you’ve completely and utterly missed the point.
If Jurgen Klopp praises our Carabao Cup final performance as ‘the most special trophy’ he’s ever won – it’s not to claim the trophy is superior to the league or Champions League.
But how on earth can you not get emotional at the fact we managed to pull off such an improbable victory that saw five players aged 20 or under play a role?
How can you not tear up at the sight of Conor Bradley showing all the gusto of a senior starter? How can you not weep with joy at the sight of an 18-year-old Jayden Danns striking fear into the hearts of the Chelsea backline?
If none of that matters, then football simply isn’t for you.
Stop giving this waste of breath the time of day. Piers simply likes the sound of his own voice and never has anything relevant to say. Stop printing his idiotic statements.
Sour grape commentator with no sense of sportsmanship and obviously bitter and sore loser
Morgan’s brain and mouth don’t connect. A sign of a great man.
I didn’t realise they had found a brain in Morgan. He is, probably , the lowest form of slimeball but I do sympathise with him after all he has to live with himself 24 hours a day. to me, even for him that’s cruel and unusual punishment
Who is he?
He doesnt command the respect and loyalty of the people around him thats why he does not and will not know the meaning of true loyalty and true grit like what was shown by the players to Mr Klopp to achieve the feat… go put a sock in it morgan…
Piers Morgan – a legend in his own tea cup. Total sphincter.
He doesnt know anything about football
It sounds like sour grapes. If he can’t accept the victory especially the challenge that the youngsters overcame then he should shut up do everyone a favour and retire.
Piers oh Piers oh Piers. You supervised me as well as a seasoned journalist. Not comprehending the actual meaning of Klopp’s comments. You should stick to stories about the Sussexes. You doing a great job there
Any time I hear or see Morgan I wanna throw up
Morgan, you’re not pretty enough to be this stupid and I don’t have the time or the crayons to explain it to you!
