Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp cannot wait for the Carabao Cup final this year.
The Reds are set to take on an old rival in Chelsea at Wembley in the coming weeks.
A repeat of the 2022 final that saw the Reds win two cups to round off an intense season, Klopp hopes they can get the better of the Blues again.
He told reporters: [I] didn't think about it, to be honest, because we are far off having four finals. We qualified for one. But we learned that year it makes no sense to plan the next one if you didn't even play the first one. All the competitions are not made that somebody wins all of them. That's just how it is because of the number of games.
I saw now if we win on Sunday, the final is obviously on Sunday the 25th [of February] and then three days later is the next FA Cup round. That's how it is. There's nothing to learn about. The question will come if we do that again and would qualify for three finals [which] again is very unlikely, it's the nature of the thing then everybody will ask what does it mean for next year and stuff like this.
Because after we did that, obviously the after was not great. But that had plenty of reasons and only one of 500 reasons was that we played all the finals and [were] in the league until the last matchday. So, that's not a problem at all. But we don't have to worry about that now. We are just happy that we could qualify for that one and it was a big one.
The response in the dressing room was really cool. It was really nice to see how much it meant to the boys. I didn't question that actually, I just said before the game that it obviously means everything to Fulham and if it means to us as much we have to show it on the pitch, and that's what I saw."
