He was taking 30 seconds to book a player. He was needing a rest. It was ridiculous.

We are very focused this time and our preparation has been better. We maybe made one or two mistakes last time, but not this time.

If Chelsea drop points, the cat's out in the open. And you know what cats are like - sometimes they don't come home.

The lads really ran their socks into the ground.

I do believe in fate.

Sometimes you're not sure about a player. Sometimes you doubt. Sometimes you have to guess. Sometimes you just know.

At the last minute, from what I can gather, either Emmanuel Adebayor or his agent phoned us after they had agreed a deal with City and then did the same with Chelsea. He was desperate to get to either Chelsea or us.
