We might not, but can't think of a single good reason to say we definitely won't.
I think our toothless display in extra time shows how mentally beaten the team is.

We’ve bottled big games in big moments this season. Spurs and last night were both unmitigated disasters. And both huge bottle jobs.

Will be a minor miracle if they can lift themselves after last night.

Despondency in the stands and on the pitch after that 1st Real goal.

Conceding two late on to go to ET having been in control and seemingly destined for the final is going to give any players a mental beating. And what other big games have we bottled? Atletico away when they were giving us absolute hell? Liverpool away when we came from behind twice? The Spurs game we got a 92nd minute equaliser and then went for the win and got punished. Should have settled for the point perhaps as that would have allowed us to draw one of these final 4 games and still win it on goal difference.

They'll need us to lift them on Sunday but no better way of lifting ourselves other than by winning these final games and the league title.

Short memories. Some of this team were there when we thought we'd beaten Tottenham late in the CL only to have VAR rule it out. What did we do after that? We beat them in the league that weekend 1-0. Then we went to the swamp 4 days later and won 2-0. Then we beat Burnley and Leicester and Brighton and won the league.

They looked as desolate as we felt (and still do feel).

Huge ask now.

The Tottenham game was disgraceful. Played poorly for 90 mins, get out equaliser and then throw it away 30 seconds later.

No killer instinct to finish chances and kill games. Not just yesterday. Palace, Southampton…

Just don’t think we have it in the locker.
 
Think we will do it but it would be a crawl over the line with probably narrow wins we haven't looked great recently even Leeds 4-0 we gave them a lot of clear chances we wouldn't normally except from this team

Winning 3 out of the last 4 titles suggests we most certainly do.

You must have secretly loved last night, champ. Gives you the perfect opportunity to come on here and let everyone know how shit we are and how City completely ruins your whole existence.
 
West Ham getting through tonight could really help us.

The final is a few days after we play them so you'd expect them to rest players against us.
 
We're playing 7th, 8th, 10th & 13th, it's about as mid-table as possible, none of them competing for anything.

Wolves are 15th, West Ham 18th and Villa 19th in the form table too.

All teams always up for it when we play them wolves is the one where it be very difficult
