Atletico are a very good side... they are 2nd in La Liga and we are 6th. It would have been a shock of sorts for us to go through but we did have a great chance to put the game to bed in the first leg but messed up.

I do think though that most sides and fans would love to swap places with us in reality. We have won trophies recently after all, look at all the other teams that haven't done anything in years. I do think the mitigation our complaints are that we pay some of the highest ticket prices in the world so we should expect a level of competitiveness at the top table.
