Sun's up in Istanbul and I'm sooooo excited. Before the QPR game was the most nervous I've been before a game and generally I'm pretty calm these days. Last week I was a bit nervous about possibly losing to that lot, rather than excited.
But I'm watching not just the best team in our history but one of the best in football history. I said to people before Wembley that if we turn up, as we did against Bayern and Madrid, that no team can live with us. We didn't really turn up at Wembley but we were still too good for them. I'll probably have some nerves closer to kick off but mainly I'm going to have a great day with my 20k+ fellow blues here in Istanbul.
