Manchester City appear to aim dig at Chelsea star following Carabao Cup final defeat

Fans are convinced Manchester City aimed a dig at former player Cole Palmer after Chelsea were beaten in extra-time in the final of the Carabao Cup against Liverpool.

The west Londoners were second best for much of the first half at Wembley but had a great opportunity to open the scoring through Palmer only for the youngster to be denied by Caoimhin Kelleher.

Both teams hit the woodwork on multiple occasions in a frantic and end-to-end contest, and Palmer was again involved in a late goal-mouth scramble that Liverpool somehow survived.

Chelsea seemed to have a young and injury-hit Liverpool side on the ropes towards the end of the 90 minutes, but they sat off in extra-time as the Merseysiders re-took control of the contest.
