Mate, let’s not dress it up. Since the Premier League’s inception, there have been two genuine upsets of that nature. Two. The FA Cup is hardly the great leveller some make it out to be, and if we’re honest, most big clubs don’t end up getting banana-skinned—facts are facts.
Sure, we won, and in the end, that’s all that should matter to any supporter of this club imo, but to pretend that performance wasn’t dreadful would be a disservice to our collective intelligence.
Ultimately, we got the result, and that’s all that matters and I am incredibly happy we did the job. But let’s not kid ourselves about the quality of the display, eh? We’ll all toast to the win, but let’s be real about it.
