Gusto: Chelsea players recognise big Cup winning chance

Chelsea youngster Malo Gusto is relishing taking to the field for the League Cup final.

Gusto has gotten an extended chance in the Blues first team due to Reece James being injured.

Ahead of the Carabao Cup final against Liverpool, Gusto stated the following on the team's chances of success: I have a big chance, and the team as well [has a big chance], to win a trophy early in the season.

I think it can be nice for our mentality to help us become better until the end of the season. It is very important for us to take this opportunity to keep pushing during the season.

The season is not finished. We have to keep working, sticking together, and keep this mentality. Keep pushing to show to the fans that we are Chelsea and we need to win everything. After this game, it's not finished.

We have to win this trophy for us and the fans because they are waiting a lot for this team, but this trophy can be important for everyone for the rest of the season and the club."

Asked if Liverpool is a bigger challenge than they were last month, Gusto added. I think so, yes. Now we know how they play, move and use their players. It was good to play against them five games ago and we are ready.

After that game, we stuck together on the training ground or in defensive or offensive actions [on the pitch]. I think it is just about mentality. That's what we have had in the last three games, and I think that's why we played better, and we have to keep it."
