I hope we can win another cup this year. Atleast the FA or CC and that would really make this season even more sweater if we get the 3rd or 4th place with a silverware in hand Boohoo!! *Drools*

Neither team are gona play their strongest side and I believe that with the squad that we have we can go all the way to the final yet again. I reckon it will be us and City in the final as they are the only top prem team that play their strongest team. We'll still beat em tho. 3-1 Spurs

Just as long we dont turn off like we usually do against them Man utd. Im always pissed at our players turning off 2nd half against them. Its just not natural!

Bentley was absolutely s**t as was Hutton. Sell both in January.

Well they didnt switch off.......

They just didn't feckin turn up. It was so clear that the game didnt matter to them and that they were just there to make an appearance. I don't think 'Arry could really complain seeing as HE himself said that the premier league was more important. I feel sorry for anyone who made the journey up there because after seeing a performance like that I would want my money back! Oh and if anyone from this forum was there, was the atmoshpere really THAT quiet because you could of heard a pin drop.

I am ashamed and really want to cry.

Bale was decent, made some good runs and got really stuck into some challenges. Good to see him play well again, keep him do not sell.

im dissapointed we threw this game away just because we want the top 4 spot. Could have let the fringe players prove themselves for this match.. Sad yet Harry knows what he is doin..

I'm sorry to say but I disagree with you all.

I thought we started very brightly. We had chances but they didn't get finished.  But aside from that Man Utd actually defended really well & were consistantly closing down our players.  They really put in a good performance & all teams should take a look at how well organised they were.   

Bale had a great game. Bentley showed why Lennon is so much better. Lennon scares defenders so they don't go in for the tackle. Bentley doesn't command his position like Lennon hence the defenders had a lot of confidence to get the tackles in.  Added to that I think Lennon should have played right wing & Bentley on the left.  Keane was about the only player who totally didn't turn up.  Jenas & Palacios we average.
