"We've come and done it. Everyone in there is buzzing. But now we need to prepare for the weekend."

"To work with our gaffer is amazing. I'm really enjoying right now. Hopefully I can continue that [form]. I want to try to get on the ball and start stuff as much as possible."

"It's been a real joy. We've all worked really hard. Some of the results, we've felt hard done by."

"We're in the competition because we want to try to go and win it. That's the aim. We want to keep the standard in the league as well. Sometimes we haven't been at it."

What a performance! Gutted to have missed that tonight - I even had a parking space booked at the Bridge, but a late emergency work meeting this evening caused me to miss the game.

I’m worried that I may need to stay away for the last 16 game now as well!

"I lost my voice, I lost everything. It was an amazing game. We played amazing football. We deserved to reach the top of the table."

"We could have scored more goals but we are very happy, we are very proud, for the club, for Brighton, for our fans, for our players, for the people who work inside the club."

"This is the best moment in my time [here]."

"The message is Saturday, Arsenal. Second one is I congratulated Adingra. He made a lot of mistakes but I love his attitude, his behaviour. The problem isn't making mistakes, it's after the mistakes if you try again. We are Brighton. We have to push, we have to try again if we make mistakes. I told them I'm really proud."

"We will play two games less. We want to dream. We want to prepare for that game for our best to win another step."

I just cannot get over what I am seeing these days. My elderly grandfather (born London 1894) who first watched Brighton play in the early 1930's (God bless him) took me to watch at the Goldstone early 70's (He died not long after). I was young. I remember the years of being a NS regular (including the grotty bogs down the slope) and extraordinary games and names of the times. Spent time with Melia at his house (saw his girls modelling photos) and I married the year we escaped v Hereford. Nothing however can match what is going on now. I admit I cried at full time. This is the absolute pinnacle of me following Albion (so far). I think I can die a happy man and diagnosed with heart failure that may not be long. Thank you Mr Bloom, thank you de Zerbi, thank you the players over the years for BHAFC (especially now) and thank you fellow supporters for making this one hell of a football following career!

Isn't it the draw for the last 16 too?

It can't be - because they don't know who is in it yet, and have to keep teams from the same associations apart until the quarter-finals.
