I wouldn't of fancied our chances with the injuries to our defenders.

Maybe, maybe not, i think they have ran out of steam and a great side will pick them off

I expect we’d have only been missing Dias if we’d have been playing tonight

however I honestly think only having the PL go for focussed our minds and helped us to claw back the points v West Ham and Villa

maybe we wouldn’t have managed that if we’d have had a CL final to distract us. We could have been playing the dippers tonight as our only chance of silverware and to stop them doing a quadruple.

feel sick thinking of it

Me neither seeing how easy West Ham and Villa got behind our defence. Mind you Wolves did the same to them.

Would of been similar to the Cup semi final. We did look tired team during the title run in

Still can't help feeling that we should be there this evening. Madrid barely laid a glove on us in 90 minutes in the Bernabeu. But a suicidal 5 minutes did for us (last sunday in reverse, if you like). If one of those Grealish chances had gone in (and I'm not playing the blame game, before anyone starts).....

That's out very early.

Why though? Gives the opposition time to change their team if they feel like they need to

We weren't looking fresh either. The dips would of pressed us like crazy like they had done in the first half in Cup semi final.

Fully fit Walker and we would have won that game.
