Tottenham v Manchester United [KO 4PM - SSHD1]

Paul Tergat

Great reaction from DDG

RandolphEsq

Panic stations!

Paul Tergat

Weather this storm until half time...

double GG

How did that stay out? Great save

Mars Bar

Took a deflection! That's an unreal save from DDG.

shrewdness

Well done big Dave.

Paul Tergat

DDG is good with his feet, great adjustment

MagicMarker

Jesus, what a save...

IvySlayer

Good man DDG.

kmart6

Great readjustment from DDG

Paul Tergat

FFS clev, should have slipped Welbeck in there rather than the cross

double GG

Might have preferred a free on the edge there.

PhlegmyMoses

Poor save from De Gea. Should have used his hands and parried it out so hard it goes for a goal kick for Spurs.

Al Capwned

Tell ye one things lads, that's as good a stop as he's made for us!

ScummyMan

Unlucky Welbeck, well played.

Max Power

Bloody hell Wellbeck, square it to Kagawa ffs.

double GG

Unlucky Welbz great play, really needed that cut back to Kag.

Mars Bar

Agh, Welbeck!

i think you are wrong in the point you are making here.

Wellbeck should have found Kag there, great build up play though, so close!

double GG

strength!!!!!!!!

Mars Bar

Welbeck really coming into it and making things happen

Paul Tergat

great link up from welbeck and rvp

double GG

Ohhhh Welbz again! unlucky.

Paul Tergat

Not sure about RVP on these corners from the right

double GG

RVP whips in such a dangerous corner, He just whips them in so flat, right on the six yard box. Keeper can't do a whole lot.

The delivery itself is fine but I don't think we attack the out-swinging corner as we do the in-swinging

not prefer him in the box when its on the right?

MagicMarker

Good half of football.

Fully expect Spurs to score so we need to move up a gear. I can see Rooney on early in the 2nd half.

that was my point, probably not made well enough. Out swingers are harder to attack

Have to be happy with the scoreline. Bale being frozen out of the game and Dembele kept at bay. Game plan is working so far.

Lord TSC

I wish Welbeck would figure out a final touch. He keeps doing well to get the ball past players, only to mess up an easy pass to another player.

Happy with the first half. Half way there to another 3 points from a tough game.

Agreed with this. It's not without merit that people get a bit frustrated with him. He is a bit loose with his touch and passing in crucial situations. He's still doing well, mind.

Ha, Henry Winter summing up the first half.

#thfc 0 #mufc 1 ht. Van Persie with a header after Cleverley with a great cross and Spurs with poor marking. Fergie in a Beanie hat.

Paul Tergat

neville making a smart point re: DDG - his hands have to be softer to tip it round the post rather than be too strong and push it back out

Strange to hear Suarez songs being sung

And our defenders have to chase the ball in case he can't hold it or get it around the post. They stand still too much

His name being said sounds like someone spitting Yuck

Frustrating to see us play better but have no attacking edge. Hope we get Holtby in asap.

Al Capwned
