Unbelievable but that’s exactly what it’s all about. So chuffed for the lads! So pleased I’m off today, totally lost me voice. Gutted it’s international week now, I just wanna see the lads bringing the silverware back on an open top bus!

Before the game I said to my mates that all I wanted was two things.

1. For us to ****ing get in to them and turn up and put a performance in

2. Regardless off the scoreline, good clean goals…none of this VAR ****, penalties given when they shouldn’t be etc

It was all of that and so much more. A proper old fashioned cup final. We outplayed probably one of the best teams in Europe at the moment, a team that have been pretty much untouchable this season in the league. We beat them fair and square, fully deserved our victory. The best team won and won well which sometimes is never the case. Unbelievable that other than the 3 yellow cards in added time for time wasting, there were no other yellow cards during the game. We absolutely ****ing bossed that. Joelinton was ****ing immense, he’s an absolute beast, there’s nobody else like him in the league!

It’s a cup final. We have a great chance of an upset and we can’t be pragmatic.

We best PSG recently and they battered Liverpool. I know it’s a while back.

But I feel we need to literally go 120% energy levels and give it everything. If it’s not good enough then so be it.

I would hate for us to do a Man City performance and just fade to black.

Pretty much went exactly how I said it needed to. 120% was given.

Yep. Thought that was the best we had played in a long time. Not slick football but we just bossed them over the whole pitch and particularly in midfield. It was the perfect way to play them and they went from a team who have been imperious in the league to one who didn't know what had hit them.

I had a brief wobble at the start of the 2nd half when I thought I wasn't going to be able to watch us protect a 1-0 lead for 45mins but once we got the 2nd I just enjoyed it until they got the late goal, and then watched the final few minutes out nervously.
