Andoni Iraola speaks to Sky Sports. “We need fresh legs … a lot of players are waiting for this competition to have their starts, their minutes … they are pushing hard … so I have trust that they can perform well … the bench is always important … we have good options … according to how the game goes, we will decide one way or another … we need to keep winning games … we need to keep going … it does not stop … the level of our opposition is very high … everyone has to play their part … I hope today they do … Chelsea have a very strong starting XI … we have to respect them … we have to be at our very best if we want to beat them … we always practice [penalties] … I don’t know if it is better or worse, I think Fleetwood didn’t practice and they were incredible! … but we always do it!”
A reminder that the draw for the quarter-finals will take place tonight. The tombola is scheduled to begin spinning at around 10.20pm UK time, so we can probably add 10-20 minutes to that, The Man is notorious for dragging his feet at these things. There are already two balls in the spinner: Bradford City and Fleetwood Town, the latter having done a proper number on the reigning champions of England last night.
