But it hasn't really worked.

I was at the Cup game with Villa and he took responsibility for that.

He said it was his fault, basically, for not going with charge, putting Tielemans deeper.

So I think that's going to happen.

He wants the team to be able to play different ways.

You're not going to get that fluency all the time.

They might have to try and get back to that.

But, I mean, I think all the teams, most of the teams below them failed to win, didn't they?

So I think the only danger is that that starts to feel like an anti-climax.

If they go out the two cups, they've got Brentford in the semi-final at Villa.

If they were to go out of those and then suddenly almost finishing fourth feels like it's not this amazing season that they would have dreamt of.

But I think they'll get back on track quite soon.

And like I say, it's a huge cushion and the teams behind them aren't very good.

Yeah, I think there is a question of motivation there in terms of what they focus on and how they approach the rest of the season.

We saw that last season to Pellegrini where they...

It didn't work out with the Real Madrid semi-final.

It felt like there were passengers and it's a really big game.

They need to get that motivation back to sort of contest for these big trophies because they can win the Champions League.

They can win the Cups.

So it's not as if this season is over.
