anybody chelsea contract country good maybe offer
I'm not going to say what the contract is, but it made me shudder. It's a lot of money. We've made him an offer which is probably as good an offer as anybody in this country - maybe other than Chelsea - would make.
maybe pay surely taking
I'm not taking it very seriously. Maybe I'm naive, but surely there's going to be gas, it's just what you have to pay for it.
amount character handled heart huge maybe team
The team showed a huge amount of character and heart out there. Maybe they wouldn't have handled it at other times.
bar couple glad maybe qualify struggling
She was struggling there for a couple of meets, and that's frustrating for her. I'm glad that she can qualify and get that out of the way. Maybe now that she's qualified, she can put that bar a little higher. We'll see what we can do.

We are going through maybe not in the Arsenal way - but we are through.

I'm thrilled with the performance, but disappointed to lose on a technicality. It's a tough way to learn a lesson, but it doesn't take anything away from the way the kids ran.
ability attacking fact grown impressive quality
I know the quality of these boys. All the youngsters have grown in confidence. With our attacking ability and especially -- what for me is the most impressive thing -- the fact we are not conceding goals, I can say we are cautiously optimistic.
forced needs scoring stopped
I know when we stopped them and got a turnover, then forced a three-and-out and were still down 14-10 that there was something wrong. That scoring needs tweaking.
forward half looking pennant race second
I'm looking forward to the second half of September. How could you not want to be in a pennant race with the Yankees?

That helps her 400, to be able to run a good 200 like that. We're excited about her running that. That shows a little versatility, and it's nice to have.
