AFCON is more likely to knock them out of the League Cup than truly impact their top 4 chances.
Maybe they can get some more "false positives" and continue to delay their league cup ties too.
Didn't think anyone back here would buy into that drivel. You really think they care enough about the League Cup to engage in some sort of Covid-conspiracy to get the dates moved back, but not back far enough where AFCON will be over? And in the process, voluntarily give up home field advantage for the second leg? Real galaxy brain stuff.
the whole thing is comical. From the notion that a major testing operation would deliver multiple false positives, to Klopp's explanation, to Arsenal fans reactions that there was some deep conspiracy when LFC couldn't care less about the League Cup. Everything about the situation was poor form.
