I do not think the crowd affected us, but the position of being in a big time game may well have affected us.

I've got a Championship game to play and I'm excited about the opportunity of my damn strong football team to play in it.

I'm busy. Thank you very much. Have a great day.

The team is never about the single player. It's not about the injury that keeps a star out of a certain game, and it's not about the coach. It's about the strength, and the abilities of the sum.

The public have neither shame or gratitude.
