Description
Penalty shootout with Liverpool, anyone?!
Matt Davies-Adams has two of The Athletic's finest alongside him - Dom Fifield and Simon Johnson - to reflect on the emphatic 6-2 aggregate win over Boro to confirm Chelsea's safe passage to the League Cup final.
We hear from Liam on the final whistle and celebrate the hugely influential return of Ben Chilwell and continued mastery of Cole Palmer.
The cup football just keeps on coming, with Aston Villa in town for Friday night's FA Cup 4th Round tie.
Also success for CFCW - who confirmed top spot in Group D and a place in the quarterfinals of the Champions League with a 2-1 win over Real Madrid.
Plus - a chance to hear from Cobham kid Harvey Vale - who's thriving at Bristol Rovers and sat down with Simon to discuss his special relationship with Alfie Gilchrist.
We'll be back on Monday to hopefully toast to more success - before looking ahead to the tricky trip to Anfield in a dress rehearsal of the latest showdown between these two old rivals at Wembley.
