We got a telling-off at halftime and were much better in the second half. Our main aim before the game was to get a good start and keep their confidence low, but they got a lift and we didn't get out of first gear at all.

It has been good to see the fans cheering us on -- it gives us that extra lift.

It would be great for him to win it in consecutive seasons after doing so well at Porto. We've got a long way to go but we've got a chance. If anyone can do it, it's our manager.

If we keep winning and the others keep winning it's got to be so frustrating not catching us. We had that a few years ago with Arsenal.

We've got a great record, 10 on the spin now with Man U losing (Saturday) as well but Liverpool are looking good and they've got two games in hand. We just need to keep plugging away and keep winning.

He is a fantastic player -- he scored a great goal the other night and is going to be a threat. I hope, having played against him a couple of times, I'll know a bit about him and be able to stop him.

Often it feels like we are at a home match when we have so many fans there. The singing, the cheering helps the players.

If he comes, the manager knows a lot about him and his character and will know he can fit in. Everybody can see he's got great ability.

We got a bit of a telling off at halftime. We came out and we were much, much better in the second half.
