this is the biggest game of the season. the Carling Cup is our best chance for a UEFA spot. since we are due a bit of luck, and God is a Spurs fan, I say 3-1 good guys.

What interest me is the players that OUR manager will pick. With King, Keane, Berba, Steed, Lennon, Daws, Hudd, Jenas and O'hara - i reckon with confidence, we will win, no matter who they field. Its completing the starting 11 that we need to see. Is he going to play Tainio, Chimbonda or Stalteri at right back? Chimb doesn't seem interested. Stalteri is not strong and good enough while Tainio dod a good job there against Man City.
Who will he play in goal? I can see sooner or later he gonna have to give Robinson a crack again. Will it be against Arse or Man U?
Anyhow, we will win and keep a clean sheet. We are working on that and have improved lately.
2-0 to Spurs and Berba and Keane to score.
Hudd in the middle of the park with Jenas. Steed and Aaron on the wings. King and Daws in the heart of defence, with Lee and Tainio.

Hang on, are you saying we'll lose 2-1 even if Arsenal put out the same team they did at Emirates? Surely not

I'm not sure the team makes as big a difference as you seem to think. It's more whether we can get past this Arsenal (or should I say Top 4) mental block we have. It really is all in our hands, but unfortunately I just see us bottling it again, or being really unlucky. Tends to be the form

To be honest, if we dont win its an embarrassment. Are we saying that we are this far behind the scum now that we think were on par with their ressies?

Obviously I really really really want us to win but I can see my heart is going to be broken again. I can see us winning with about 1 minute to go, them scoring to take it to extra time and then scoring again :cry: But on the other hand I feel it is our time, we will win a cup this season & what better way of winning, knocking Arsenal out in the process! COYS!

I am getting really pissed with all this
"wan*er just wants to send the kiddies out business"

He wants to win, he'll have top players on the bench and when his younger internationals struggle, if they do struggle, he'll up the anti just like he did last time this year and last year.

You see if you believe his bullshit, if we win well we only beat the kids, and if we lose, well bloody heck look how good those kids are. typical arse bullshit.

I forgot - £10 we win 2-1 or 3-1

By the way anyone know of a parking spot near the ground - I can use that does not cost a tenner?


The fact that you can only put 3 subs on means even if Arsenal bring 3 quality players on from the bench then there will still be 7/8 reserve players on the pitch against our full first team.

So if we do win then it will be against a reserve team. If Wenger wanted to win this trophy he would put out his 1st team and we would lose. Thats a fact. Check out how crap we've done in the league against them.

The fact is that he ain't bothered with this cup which is good news for us. We can get through by beating their reserves. If we win then we've beaten their 2nd team and thats that

Gallas back is a huge disadvantage he is very good at both ends of the pitch but if ledley marks him he won't get a sniff.

Ramos has 2 big decisions to make.

1. Does he play Stalteri or Chimbonda at right back?
2. Does he partner O'Hara, KP, Tainio or the Hudd with Jenas?

Getting these two decisions right could be cruical

The other 9 should be straight forward
