Same. It's not exactly like United fielded a team of youngsters either.

I thought there was VAR in the league cup, I would have expected them to bring up Cesc's handball

They review it and only notify the ref if they think he's missed something iirc

It wasn't a handball

It's the (English Football) League Cup. It's a knockout competition between all 92 teams in the top four tiers of the football league (the ones considered "professional" clubs i.e. their players are full time footballers).

The Premier League is the top tier, league competition.

Thanks for that. Do lower clubs get a chance to rise up through this? Still trying to get my head around relegation.

He's booked two of ours and none of Chelsea despite a couple of naughty tackles and an obvious elbow on Mane. No consistency.

Not through the cups, you just get a shiny trophy at the end and qualification into next year's Europa League (the lower European Cup competition).

This is completely separate to the league system (other than the teams in it).

No. You only get promoted through a sufficiently high finish in league competition. The Cups are separate trophy opportunities.

Just sometimes as a Chelsea fan, people still ask me "Aren't you annoyed you lost Sturridge?"

I think I'll just keep that video handy in future.

Is that really a thing people still ask when he's barely played a game in two+ years?

There is no way someone is saying that about Sturridge seriously in 2018.

It's a lot rarer these days yeah. But to be fair, Chelsea have Morata so it's still a good question.
