Saturday's draw with Aston Villa in the Premier League was a difficult one to take and all but ended our hopes of qualifying for the Champions League next season.
Look, we weren't at it, were we? To their credit, I must say, Aston Villa did really well in the first half and have been one of the Premier League's in-form sides since Unai Emery took over from Steven Gerrard earlier in the season.
I wasn't impressed with Aston Villa's time-wasting antics over the course of the game and quite frankly I've never seen anything like it in the Premier League before. I thought the referee, John Brooks, struggled to control the game and that showed as Villa were able to eat up plenty of the clock with players like Ashley Young and the goalkeeper, Emi Martinez, delaying restarts when the ball went out of play.
