against beating best certainly chelsea fantastic few forward last love minutes moment outfit played setting standards team uphill year
We played well there last year and we were only a few minutes away from beating them. But they are a fantastic outfit and team and are setting the standards for everyone, so it's an uphill job, but one you look forward to. You love to play against the best and at the moment Chelsea certainly is that.
battered courage
We've been battered all week, and at least (the players) have responded. We showed courage to take them on.
reading side wrong
Too often we are reading about him on the wrong side of the newspaper-he should be on the back pages, not the front.
bid opening
The opening bid is laughable. It is so derisory.
best club given led performance since
He's given his best all-round performance since he's come to the club and led from the front.
fit moment okay unsure whether
Fortunately Emile's scans showed that he was okay but we're unsure at the moment whether he'll be fit for Saturday.
best hopefully ok serious slight took
He got a slight strain. It was best that we took him off. Hopefully it's not too serious and he will OK for Chelsea.
falling goes remarkably
He goes into the box, and does very well at falling over. Remarkably well
centre gordon leaving work
When he was leaving Celtic, Gordon Strachan said to me: 'You'll not work with a better centre forward'.
bit resilience
We've got to show a bit more resilience than we did tonight. We are in a relegation scrap.
carry few good hope last talent weeks
He was sensational and we all know what a talent he is. For the last few weeks he has started to play well again, which is very, very good for us and let's hope he can carry on doing that.
fed savage teeth
I do not want to give Robbie Savage any more publicity. I am fed up to the back teeth with him.
chance full hoping join towards training
Butt has a chance and we are hoping he can join in full training towards the end of the week.
best game good groin kenny remarkably sore trained
Kenny got through the game remarkably well because he hasn't trained for the best part of two weeks. He has got a very sore groin which could put him out for a good month.
