What a depressing game. Hard to see how we are going to bring in the quality we need. We're not good enough on all fronts but we have seen that we can pull it together for spells and the likes of Mig, Skrtel, Can, Hendo, Sterling, Cout, Lucas, Lallana and Sturridge should be held onto.
Young players like Moreno, Markovic and Ibe might step up, but that does mean we need to replace a LOT of others - Johnson, Gerrard, Lovren, Allen, Borini, Lambert. With Sterling and Hendersons contract to linger, and everyone bound to throw money at Coutinho, we're not looking at a pleasant summer.

No they didn't. It would have been unfair if somehow we got to the finals over them. Villa deserved the win - their tactics were spot on, they had more energy, more desire, and out fought us in every area of the pitch. With a better final pass in the final third, they could have thrashed us.

Makes sense surely? Sometimes the pressure gets too much. This is one thing that has happened throughout football over the years. Nothing wrong with that.
