The euphoria of the victory over Arsenal is still high, even if Arsenal were a poor looking side the victory will live long in our memories.
The manner in which Jimmy Bullard and Danny Murphy controlled the midfield proved that they can be a midfield force together and after the match Jimmy spoke about what it means to him simply to be able to lace those boots on let alone put on a performance that underlined his value to the side.
Speaking after the match, Jimmy remarked,
“I went through horrible times. But now I`m playing again I`m just enjoying every minute.”
“I know how close I was to not making it, so every time I step on to that pitch I just try and enjoy 90 minutes of football.”
“At one point, it was another op or hang-up-your-boots time.”
“It was my decision. I wasn`t sure how it was going to go.”
“But I stuck in there, did the rehab properly when it was bloody hard graft and stuck with the main surgeon, Dr Steadman, who I really cannot thank enough.”
“He got my leg back to where it is, if not stronger.”
“Days like these are special. That`s what you play footie for, to be honest, turning over Arsenal on your own patch.”
Just like Jimmy says – does turning over Arsenal on your own patch give you a warm feeling?
