So it makes a lot of sense as to why Chelsea have gone in for her.
Yeah, and I think it's reflective of how well they've been, how well they've played this season.
They have, by a country mile, been the best team in the league and deservedly so now getting the double.
I think, you know, you look at other teams that have sort of dropped off, they've just kept going.
And yes, there's no European football, but this team is a very, very good team.
And the club did really well in the summer when they brought in
Andre to bring in a host of players as well they'd had injury issues and this has been a really good season for them and I think they definitely deserved it like Tom said yeah Brighton played really well that first 30 minutes but I think that's the difference between a team like Brighton and a team like Manchester City is that when they then got their first rule chance at the game they buried it and were 1-0 up and I think that's probably what
Brighton are going to look to try and replicate in the season is just being able to take those chances because especially with how that first half went if you're Man City you're thinking we're not going to get a lot of these chances you know they were being stopped from being hitting them on the break they were really forcing them into into tight spaces and losing possession and I must have said sort of in the team like right what do we do we just have to take chances and that's probably the maturity that comes with being in these like in these
games being in these finals obviously it was Brighton's first one so these will come with time but like Tom said it's really good foundations and they're a really good team it's just Man City are a better team at the minute.
I think the foundations are really, really strong.
Like, this is a really good team.
Like Tom said, they're really well coached.
Darren knows what he wants.
And the communication between the way they want to play and what they're executing is really clear.
You knew exactly what the game plan was in those first 30 minutes.
I do think, you know, bar, you know, Kirby, Kankovic, I don't know how many other of those players have been in a situation like being at Wembley in the FA Cup final.
And that is a whole thing in itself to try and handle individually.
Being on that stage, being at the pitch, being there for the occasion.
Mentally, that's just another thing to overcome.
You look at sort of Man United's first time and they went to the Final Spurs.
