yeah, that was always the risk

I think perhaps in the last 20 minutes we could have perhaps tried to risk a bit more. At that stage it was clear that Chelsea weren't at their best and just one goal would probably have been enough to put us through. Now we're back to square one. They can study our weaknesses and one goal probably won't be enough in the return leg.

Perhaps I'm wrong here, but I can't believe we are at the stage yet where the money from the replay is being prioritized over maximizing the chance of progressing in the cup.
