Losing to Manchester United is no disgrace.
Losing 3-0 is hardly a catastrophe but sometimes, just sometimes you feel that you didn`t help yourselves, especially when the floodgates are partially opened by an error from somebody who is normally so reliable.
After the game, Roy summarised events by remarking,
‘The first goal was a poor one for us to concede, but we were beaten by a better team.’
‘What happened was no disgrace. Manchester United are a very good team with a great chance of winning the Premier League. “
‘Their passing and movement was very good, and they have the individual players to finish in the final third. “
‘Whatever team Sir Alex Ferguson puts out can cause you problems.”
‘I am just pleased we didn’t capitulate. We have to wipe our faces and accept that the dream of coming here and doing something special was just that, a dream.’
You didn`t seriously believe we`d win 5-0 did you Roy?
