Tottenham Hotspur vs. Manchester United

Hope the second half isn't like Norwich away and we don't just sit back.
 
*United dominating that first half and finally getting a well deserved goal....

*Meanwhile, in opposite land
 
Don't like your attitude there! Not the best performance but the goal is hardly undeserved. It is a big boost for us and for sure we won't sit back in second half.

Eh?

How did we 'deserve' anything for that half? Did even have a shot, goal apart?
 
Pathetic performance. I don't care that we're 1-0 up. The attitude of our players has been appalling. Absolutely no urgency or passion, all just walking around like it's a kick about in the park.

Play like that in the second half, and we will lose.

Pipe down. We have being sound enough defensively. We just gotta get control of midfield, or atleast pull our weight there. Easily changable that. Calm it.
 
I don't think they've been anything special themselves tbh. If they had been, they'd be about 3 up. I think we've just been so unbelivably bad we've made them look good.

That's just nonsense, it's possible for an opposition team to be the deciding factor you know? They've done very well.
 
Wonder if we might have to sacrifice Welbeck to secure the midfield battle. Not now, but see how things go for the first ten minutes of the second half, and then consider bringing on somebody to go in CM.

I don't think its really that, the players have been poor, rather than us being outnumbered. We're two slow with the passing and we've been sloppy.

The other thing which I can't understand is the amount of times we play the ball back to the goalie. We play it at the back way too much, invite the pressure till we have to play it back and then inevitably lose it because we don't have any big target men up top.

Don't know why people are saying the Adebayor one should have been given, he clearly moves his arm down towards the ball. He didn't need to and without it he wouldn't have been able to knock it in as easily. It's not like it hit his arm and he could do nothing about it.
 
Not a great half for us there. A bit sloppy at times. We can tighten that though hopefully. Modric getting sucked in centrally as the half went on, think we gotta challege that flank more.

Aye, get on Rafael and exploit the right wing. Modric isn't that good at defending, so Nani and Rafael really should be able to do some damage.

That's football. Take your chances is the name of the game. You cant deserve every goal that you score ffs.
 
Sky pundits saying if a ball hits a defender on the arm on the goal line it's never given as a penalty. What a load of shite. If that ball had gone past Adebayor and hit Evra standing on the line on the arm and stayed out they would be calling for a penalty, and Atkinson would have given it. He fecking controlled it with his arm for feck sake.
 
Jones needs to come off for Rafael.

Also Anderson needed in that midfield.

It has no energy at all.
 
G Nev is trying his best to be neutral...not working at all!!
 
Wouldn't mind giggs coming in to make 3 in midfield, we need to have little bit more possession.
 
I don't think I've ever seen as many people on the internet rooting for a Man Utd win before. Chelsea and Arsenal fans are all rooting for us because they don't like Tottenham this season. Neutrals are mostly rooting for us because it makes the league more exciting.
 
I dont like the attitude, too sloppy, casual and not willing to run. If we keep playing like that, Spurs will turn that game

You don't care that we're 1-0 up against the side currently in third place, in a game that could potentially see us clinch the title? Have a word with yourself, mate.
