I awoke this morning, not gutted, but seriously disappointed at the result last night. I lamented going out of the competition in that manner; play a team off the park, don't take our chances, get punished for it. But, I realised that if we went out we were always going to go out like that...

... Or they defend in numbers ...Or counter attack with speed ;)

The upside is the squad will be so motivated to bounce back from tonight. I think we will murder Chelsea. 4-1 City.

Two hours later and I'm still not that arsed. Does this mean I am, in actual fact, a Rag??!!! I just don't think I'll ever love this competition.

It will be a shame if he does go.

Lol!! This geezer Frankie Lad is late to the party! All the hard-core booze has been downed 25 years ago by us lot!!! its just the soft drinks that are left :D

Nah! His eye for a pass has always been his yardage. Once his creativity and speed of thought desserts him its curtains at the top level. Look at Modric. Running is for other players. Using the ball efficiently is what made Kev the best of his generation.

I made peace with losing after the final whistle. I'm not a pessimist, but I've been here before. Dominate, goes to pens, you lose. There is a belief that rises in a human when they have weathered a storm. Madrid had that. I'm not a chumps lover, so I can leave this result at the door. I think...
