What a great second half that was. We're in for a proper test tomorrow.

A very difficult game awaits.......

As much as I would like us to do another Wigan, I would take a dull 1:0 win tomorrow!

wayne, love that,might take that tip, actually...
@ Scott; i'm not hoping for "more of the same" , but rather a solid cleansheet and a few goals for us. 2-0 down at half time isn't a good place to be in.

Wow that was some half time. Im still a bit curious of what Fergie told them in the changing rooms lol. He probably screamed at them.
@ Vishnu Completely agree with you mate. Good defending and one goal would do. Its a tough fixture we are playing at white hart lane. Tottenham wont be a walk in the park, and would hit us on the counter so our defence better be on top form especially Evra. Berba to start alongside Rooney. with Nani, Ando, Fletch and Valencia in midfield. foster in goal and and im not too bothered about the defence selection really. Conceding shoulnt be an option. A draw wouldnt be too bad. But losing is not again an option at all. As long as Fletcher starts i will be optimistic :D

P.s Ronaldo was/is fucking magic. Look at his feet work at 1:47-1:50 and the way he takes two defenders with him to eventually ship the ball perfectly to Rooney. Wow. Rooney had a cracking second half as well, cant help put watch that cunt Tevez how that shit-head can cost something like 25 million is fucking crazy!

I think it's been forgotten that Berbatov upped his game the three times we faced Spurs last season.

He scored against them twice and was involved in the build up for most of our good stuff against Spurs in the 5-2 win. And knocked them out of the FA Cup

In the 0-0 draw at White Hart Lane, he put in a decent shift and went on one magical run which could have yielded a goal had Dawson not put in a wonderful tackle...he's going to be out there to prove a point once again and a motivated and up for it Berbatov is surely great for us?

As for Lennon-Evra, Evra underwent a poor slump in form after coming back from injury last season but this season he's been one of the if not our best player...then again Lennon is on form. We might need Ji Sung Park in to help Pat out and thus actually play Nani down the right for once

Foster
Evra Evans Vidic Brown
Park Anderson Fletcher Nani
Berbatov Rooney

Anderson because of how fresh he is compared to some others. Valencia might be knackered after getting back from Ecuador, I am not sure if Rio is fit...if that is the line up that plays I think Vida or Wazza could end up captain

In the season review berba said that before the game they wathced tottenham-manchester united 3-5 game when we were losing 3-0 at half time and turned the game (btw i love that game) what can motivate better than that

Who the fuck do these arrogant Citeh cunt's think they are? Greedybayour saying City fans are the best , then Hughes sticking his oar in. What a shame I grew up LOVING him but he has turned into a right bluenose. Hope Arsenal fucking stuff the cocky bastards tomorrow and knock them down a peg.

Tough game to be honest. How Evra handles lennon will be the key and how Carrick does in the midfield will influence the game. I honestly hope we play Berba and Rooney and Berba has a massive game because spuds defence as improved as it is, will still being their weak point. I think we can contain the likes of Defoe and without Modric they will lack the creativity in the middle.

Foster needs to have a good game as he's still a weak link for me, and if Nani or Valencia do well we should win this one...not comfortbaly, but i still think we can win 3-1.

I want Berba and Ando (if he plays) to dictate play. It would be lovely to see some spectacular football against an in-form team!

This game showed Ronny at the best.

He is a LEGEND. No debate about that. Yes he acted like a nob during that summer but his ability, goals tally and love for our club and manager make him an offer. Most people forget that, if Real Madrid were no such thing, Ronny would've stayed here for his career I reckon. Maybe he might have ended his career at a portugese club.

Ronaldo. 2nd best player in the world, behind Wazza. I still see him coming back here one day. There is always going to be some hard feelings towards him but I feel it's time to forgive and wish him, but not Madrid, well.

Tevez is a COWARD.

Nervous about today. A draw away to the yids is not bad at all. It's been a draw past 2 years.

What a day it was! I remember going crazy for Ronaldo's goal. At that moment, i thought there was no way this guy would leave us. Oh well. Not a legend, but one of the greats we have seen in the red shirt.

Rooney was the difference that day. He was devastating on the left wing! I just hope we edge them out today. Even 1-0 will do. It's a ground we haven't won at for 3 years. And we used to win there a lot before that.

can see sir alex ferguson doubling up on aaron lennon with both patrice evra and park ji sung on the left, and he'll probably rest antonio valencia on the bench after his long trip.

This will be a really important one. 3 points agains an in-form Assenal and getting another 3 against an in-form Tottenham would be sooooo sweet. I feel this will be harder then Assenal... I will probably have a heart attack if we get another 2-0 down in the first and end up winning 2-5!!!

Goooooooo United!

Morning GHTT

I think i have to agree with wllmhll. Park will probably play on the left. Valencia's Ecuador obligations will always be a problem. Park i think has had more time to rest.

Morning


hurr - I have just seen summat about Citeh paying FORTY SEVEN MILLION for Judas. They are obviously denying it but I sincerely hope they have paid that much. Fucking jokers.


Costas - Hello mate. I too think Park will play on the left with Nani on the right. My only concern is that Giggs AND Scholes may start having been rested. Wouldn't mind the Ginger one starting in the middle with Fletch but Ando needs a game. But then so does Carrick to sort his confidence out. He may be saved for Besiktas.



Was watching Gordon McQueens "Predicted 11" . What do these people talk about? He had Fletch on the right wing and Giggsy up top with Rooney?



Have a feeling we will get all 3 points today.

This would be fabulous, but I say a draw. It all depends how we start the game I think.
