I think a large part of it was scoring 2 goals early doors, a 3-0 advantage, "We're going to Wembley" ringing around the stadium - our foot came off the gas entirely and we were coasting in neutral from that point on.

In truth though it was comfortable even after their goal - which was a great assist from Willock btw - and even after the red card I wasn't at nail biting nerves, a bit wary but never in doubt for me personally. If Armstrong had put his chance away it would have been different but after that I was confident job was done! Like you say the first 20 mins were probably our best football of the season and the play for the second goal was amazing but don't think Eddie will let them off with that last 70mins performance (probably our worst of the season).

Be interesting to see how the squad reacts now - Wembley in 3.5 weeks - will people be putting their feet in for the 50/50's now? Next few games could be seriously tough especially without Bruno!

We saw Wilson before the WC so I can see him taking it easy!
