BIG CUP O’ TEDIUM
Following Monday morning’s draw for Big Cup Round of 16, the general consensus on social media abominations and elsewhere appeared to be that it was the most boring of its kind ever conducted. While Football Daily would not be so bold as to suggest it wouldn’t have been considerably enlivened if Uefa’s special guest for the occasion had turned up in full Chelsea 2012 kit to help swirl, select and unscrew the little footballs before pairing the teams for the first knockout stage, the blame for any tedium induced cannot realistically be placed at the door of John Terry.
