Manchester United boss David Moyes admits missing out on the Capital One Cup final still burns.
Last Wednesday night against Sunderland was his lowest point at the club and one gets the feeling he is glad it is behind him.
"Football is littered with disappointments and, through your career, you'll always look back and see disappointments," he said. "The Sunderland night will always be a big one to me.
"In the back of my mind, even before the Sunderland game, I knew that we probably had the chance of making a good signing in Juan (Mata) but even that didn't make me feel any better.
"We hadn't qualified for the Capital One Cup final which, in truth, we should have done."
