That's how I see it. The Gerrard wankfest would be irritating if they win anything, but I can always just turn the telly off. If Chelsea match and overtake our trophy total, chances are we'll never be above them in said pecking order again. One of my saddest non-Villa moments in football remains seeing those Lotto Chavs fluke the European Cup.

I thought there could easily have been a couple of sendings off in the Chelsea game. At least one from each side but at least the ref was consistent. I would like to join the Costa love in. He 'puts a shift in' doesn't he?

I really wouldn't like a player who stamps on other players legs in Villa's squad.

Diego Costa has been charged for violent conduct after an alleged stamp following the Capital One Cup semi-final with Liverpool on Tuesday.

The Chelsea striker, 26, faces a three-match ban for his challenge on defender Emre Can during the 1-0 victory.

The Spaniard could miss Saturday's league match with Manchester City at Stamford Bridge if he is found guilty.

He has until 18:00 GMT on Thursday to respond to the Football Association's charge.

He is being charged for the first of two alleged stamps that were not seen by referee Michael Oliver.

He also appeared to stand on central defender Martin Skrtel in the Liverpool penalty box in the second half.

The first-half incident involving Can took place close to the technical area and prompted an angry response from the Liverpool player.

Reds manager Brendan Rodgers said at his post-match press conference: "He could easily hurdle over the young player and he directs his studs right on to his ankle, which could've been nasty."

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho said after the game that he feels the Brazil-born Spain international is being targeted unfairly.

The Blues, who won 2-1 on aggregate, will face the winners of Wednesday's second semi-final involving Tottenham or Sheffield United, in the final at Wembley on Sunday, 1 March.

For some reason the goalkeeper didn't bother moving. Let's just cancel the League Cup this year.

He didn't have much chance, it couldn't have been any more in the top corner.

Yes that free kick just about shaved both bar and post...almost impossible to save.

Yes horrible final where you just can not take sides but one has to win. Also if Chelski win they go ahead of us and if Spuds they equal us.

One of them will lose and their fans will be miserable. That's the only thing to cling to.

It went across him. Keepers should save those. Had it been a left foot one swinging back in to the far left corner, I'd agree.
