Call it whatever but if we were to draw inter, Benfica and Villarreal in the K.O. stages we would have been lucky if we'd been 2 nil down with a minute of normal time left and won we would have been lucky.There’s no such thing as “luck”. Luck is a fiction of the human imagination.
Luck is what the superstitious or weak minded blame for something in hindsight when they don’t understand or can’t admit that it’s their own fault or that someone else is just better.
Everything happens by the coincidence of preparation meeting opportunity, or lack of preparation or mistakes meaning you miss an opportunity.
There’s also no such things as “meant to be”.
Monaco began with poor recruitment in preparation for Pep coming and poor defending on the night.
Liverpool came during a period where we fucking shat ourselves every time we went to Anfield because of a weak mentality.
Spurs away was down to leaving out Kompany and deBruyne in the away leg.
Lyon was down to playing 5-2-3 and being swamped in midfield.
Chelsea was down to a collective weak mentality.
Last night was down to not playing out the end of the game smartly enough.
In all of those games we missed a lot of chances as well. And that’s been a hindrance to us even when we had a record breaking strikeforce.
Luck plays a big part in cup competitions, if we are to win the league then luck won't be involved we'll have deserved it.
