“Jose Fonte hasn’t played in a cup final before. Probably never will either.”
Southampton fans are unsurprisingly over the moon tonight as their side beat Liverpool 1-0 at Anfield to secure a place in the EFL Cup final.

The Saints are heading to Wembley after Shane Long’s late goal sealed a 2-0 aggregate win over Klopp’s side, and obviously football fans everywhere were totally gutted for the Reds…

Really can't wait for Liverpool to finish 6th

While Southampton fans were busy celebrating, they also managed to find a little bit of time to do a little ribbing of a recently departed former captain of theirs.
Hope Jose Fonte enjoys his relegation battle instead of a cup final.

Jose Fonte leaving #Southampton to win trophies seems an even more ridiculous statement now 😂😂 #EFLCup #saintsfc

Jose Fonte joined West Ham because he said he wanted a chance to win trophies, but now he’s missing out on a chance to lead his side out at Wembley… and is playing for West Ham.
José Fonte, sack your agent lad. Could've lifted a trophy as captain at Wembley. You'll be lucky to lift a cup of tea in Stratford.

Imagine being Jose Fonte now missing out on a cup final to move to West Ham 🙄😂

Safe to say they’re not exactly gutted for their former skipper…
