    Just finished rewatching the match....... starting from 89 mins.<diva>

    Brilliant from our lads....every single one of them. I know Fraser was in full control, but he must stop teasing the opposition. :) Some fans may have to accept that Puel may have an inkling of how to manage a football club. Sims and Stephens showed what our Academy is about and grabbed their opportunity.

    Bad note....Puel says he doesn't know whether Virgil will be fit in 4 weeks, so he must have a reasonably serious injury. :(
    Fonte...whose sorry now?

    Wow, what a performance.
    I thought we lost a bit of control, second half, as Long wasn't pressing the man, bringing the ball out, as well as JRod had first half.
    This was letting them walk it up to 25yards out, before we started to press.
    Very, VERY, astute tactics by Puel. In both legs, when they had the ball, our midfield fell back to within almost touching distance of the back four, stopping them from dinking the ball through gaps for the runners, reducing opportunities and frequently forcing them wide.
    Can't say that I wasn't nervous, but it worked a treat, especially with Sturridge wasting their two proper chances. (We still wasted more than them, in case they try to say we were lucky).
    Great finish by Long, but an absolute beast of a run, by Sims, carrying the ball 70yards (?), then releasing the perfect pass.
    Should have booked the final day off as holiday, but will now have to check I can get it off!!!

    It's a Shane it's taken us so Long, but it Sims we're Pierre now. Maya it's the start of something special, I mean it's Virgil on the ridiculous - we've been Clasie throughout the whole competition. Can we Puel off the remarkable?

    Les wait and see.

    Ok. Back from the ceiling now. Never been so close to passing out in my life (due to my coughing fit). Also, once I stopped coughing and realised what was happening, I am not embarrassed to say I shed a tear. We only went and did it.

    We can beat Utd. I've no doubt about that. Anyone who wants a little more belief, just check their fixture list. Its hectic to say the least. We can do it.
    The only thing missing from the final is FLT's vision of collecting medals after walking past a sobbing Lovren, but I've seen him cry now, and it wasn't that special.
