Yup, still gutted. Worst part is that it doesn't really feel like it happened. Friday night football sucks.
Top draw quality in the depth of squad, a good wide player and an altetnative to Kane.
great season but unfortunetly its another situation where the game is in our hands. win it and we are 1 point behind the leaders and we inevitably lose the game.
Agree but I think this is the only season where we've been really good enough to win something.We last won silverware in February of 2008 and the earliest we can do that now is March 2018. That really is shocking given the personnel we have had in that time, moreso when mediocre sides like United will most likely have 3 trophies in the last 2 seasons to their name.

If we keep doing what we are doing then we will get ourselves to these semi finals and finals. Eventually we will win something but of course the worry is losing this combination of players and manager.
Funny how our worst performance since the Liverpool game came after a week where the speculation in the media about the future of a few of our players has reached fever pitch. In paticular Walker and Toby both of whom had there worst games in a while.
Unbelievably I'm getting "bottled it" messages from Everton, Man Utd and Liverpool fans. Are these idiots for real? Can the modern football fan not understand reality anymore?
Are we back to blaming the media again? Costa and Hazard are being linked to moves away why isn't his effecting their results?
We have been good enough to with something since 2005. Wigan and Portsmouth have won FA Cups in that time, Swansea, Birmingham have won league cups, Sevilla has won 5 Europa leagues. No one is demanding league titles but the continued excuses with the cups simply do not wash. If we continue to do what we are doing we will continue to win nothing, that is the very issue here.
He hates us - and I do mean I have seen him being interviewed and using the word hate in regard to us. But never allows it to get in the way of doing his job. He gives us credit when it is due and if he hears nonsense being spoken about us, he calls it as it is.
See what I mean about the media etc calling it a failure. So angry this morning.By who? We had a bad October / November for points, and a couple of months ago were 13 points behind Chelsea, who have had no European games and no injuries. Yet tonight we could close to within 1 point. I think we have done very well, we have got CL two seasons on the trot, got more points than anyone over the last two seasons and have generally been regarded as the best team in that time. We also have the youngest team.
No-one in their right mind would regard that as a failure. That's not to say we aren't a bit disappointed not to have actually won a trophy or the title, but it's not the same thing as being a failure.
