First off, I’d like to address the European exit. We finished 12th last season and were nowhere near ready for a European assault.

Their resistance was softened by the sending off of their keeper at 2-1 and then destroyed by goal-machine Sakho making it 3-1 towards the end. However, any sympathy for their red card is watered down by … Read more
