You know what? I am totally fine with it. Never like losing games but considering the form they are in, I thought we were relatively comparable in many ways. This is also the first time Ole went for a less defensive line up and we caused them problems. Sure, some of our game changers weren’t quite on it tonight and it’s those fine margins that gets you wins against other top teams but I will take great heart that you couldn’t really tell much difference between the teams and squads and more importantly for me, the style of play.
We’ve still got the league, FA Cup and Europa and I honestly can see us going on to win one of those. No harm in a bit of optimism!
