My main worry is turning around the Porto game. If we don’t do that then it would be difficult to look at this season with much joy.
I think we will, the last time we played Porto we had a deficit from the away leg. They were better than they are now and we were worse than we are now. And we won 5-0 in the second leg

Losing any game is frustrating and disappointing. Especially the manner in which we did. And yeah I get that we have a habit of exiting at the last 16 but I’m reasonably confident



Though results like Porto away don’t give me great faith that we will go much further than the quarters


I think we are in an age where the difference a coach makes is marginal. We didn’t beat Liverpool because Arteta is better than Klopp. We beat them because take away up front, we have a better team than them. I think we’d finish above them if not for the fact that they have the easiest fixtures remaining
