Carling Cup Final, Man United vs Spurs

LuckyLloyd

Players have slipped a couple of times now - either the surface is particularly slick or some of them have chosen the wrong studs for some reason...

LuckyLloyd

Modric doing a passable impression of Modric at the European Championships thus far...

That_Guy

Spurs knocking at the door now. Funny how a game can change. Lennon is a one man team. Modric getting into some decent positions.

A7X

O'shea isnt havin the merry west of matches

That_Guy

Ball seems to be holding up. Surface doesn't seem to be the best.

Chong

Anyone think there is something up with our defense at the moment, they dont seem to be on the same wavelength.

That_Guy

Chance.

LuckyLloyd

Lennon MotM thus far - Pav should have done a lot better with that delivery

That_Guy

Corluka lucky there.

What was that from Nani :S

Poor cross from Zokora.

A7X

he was tryin to just put it in there for sumone to run across the goal and smack in.
I think he curled it too much

Kiith

Ahh Zakora. Bad cross that time.

That_Guy

Some good defending by Spurs at the moment. Keeping United out fairly well at the moment. I think Spurs will be the happiest at half time. Having started the game on the backfoot and now taking the game to United.

Which one?

Suprised Spurs have lasted this long without conceding with their useless defence

very disappointed half for utd

attacking wise

Mark Lawrenson on 5Live: "Evra has been as good as anybody this season, but Aaron Lennon is having him for toast"

SuprSi

Decent enough game so far. I think Spurs came into it much more as the game goes on and now it depends on what's said at half time. If Lennon could pick out a man there would probably have been a goal, but it's always been his weak point. Assou-Ekotto is playing very well and marshalling Ronaldo very well. If I were Ferguson, I'd stick Ronaldo onto the left wing as Corluka is much slower than Assou-Ekotto and he would probably have more luck out there. But I'm not Ferguson, I'm a Spurs fan and I hope he doesn't do it!!

Theresalwaysone

Gibson getting run over in the middle. I think thats where United are looking particularly weak atm and its giving Modric all the time he wants to pick a pass.

Bit of a yawn fest so far TBH

Evra is not at the races at all today Lennon is skining him every time. Think bringing on Park to give him a hand on that side mighnt be a bad idea.

that's a fair assessment but Nani isn't helping Evra out at all

Nalz

United well on top for the first 10 mins but its been all Spurs since, Scholes and Gibson havent got to grips with the midfield, Lennon causing alot of problems.

Dawson also having a good game. No real great chance from either side. Not a great game. All long range shots or overhit crosses.

Definitely a good idea. Park for nani and Giggs for welbeck??

You sure you got the right channel flicked on? This has been a decent open game played at a good pace and with incident at both ends. Above average contest imo.

Id definitly have Park on for Nani to help Evra out. Id give Wellbeck abit more time, looks like he has the beating of Dawson/King pace wise.

That_Guy

Same again second half please. Love if it went to penalties.

Boggles

Nani to score, 1st 15 minutes of second half.

Not in this match he won't.

put some money on it he's 11-1

not too bad actually

put your 2.50 on it;)

PHB

I'd bring on Anderson for Scholes personally. We need a bit of fight in the middle.

Maybe Park on for Nani, I think we could do with a bit more intelligent movement up front. That said, I don't think Nani has been that bad.

all the empty sets at the far side, disgrace.

PHB

It's what happens when you have block booking tickets.
Not a single one of those seats go to the teams fans, they all go to the Wembely club or whatever it is called.

That_Guy

Rooney wearing a suit.... Didn't know Nike make suits like that.

_blank_

it's in the wrong place anyway.

Rooney doesn't look sick

LuckyLloyd

Swing and a miss no.2 for Ronaldo

Chong

FFS shoulda scored that himself.

LuckyLloyd

Good passage of play there - but, is this ref allergic to giving out yellow cards? Gibson should definitely have been booked.

PHB

Zokora, O'Shea and Gibson should all have been booked by now.

Wow, Gibson showed some bloody impressive pace catching up with Lennon. I didn't realise he had that sort of pace.

Chong

Row Z for Pav.

That_Guy

Bad decision by Ronaldo.

Worst free kick ever.
