Tottenham Hotspur Vs Manchester United: Match Thread

[C0YS]

wehave to go for the two short ones, we play the ball to feet, for the moment anyway, lets not get caught up in bringing Crouch in, although I think he will have a huge part to play come the second half in this game!

 

[RobinLeonard]

I think we will see Defoe, Crouch and Keane start tomorrow.

How many defenders do they have out? I really, really hope they'll have to play Neville on the right.

 

[WhiteStripe]

cant see nico getting a first prem start ahead of crouch so i think the team will look like

----------crouch----defoe--------
keano----wilson---hudd-----lennon
beni-----king----charli-----jenas
------------gomes---------------

:lol: been drinking?

I get what you are saying, but assuming that we wont have the majority of the ball (with Modric we might have) we will need an out ball. When we get it, with our counter attacking ability, i would love to see Lennon, Defoe and Keane all running off of Crouch. It will create havoc for Man U.

 

[degoose]

i can see crouch and defoe starting with keane starting on the left doing what modric did and cutting inside , i see no reason why changing much of the tactics used and hopefully king will be fit so we can have charlie at right back.

 

[Yid-ol]

if ferdinandisnt fit crouch or pav would cause there back line a problem, as will Defoe and his pace. Think Kranjcar should be LM over keane,keane is a forward not a LM

 

[shelfsideyid]

Call me stupid but I keep getting the score 4-1.........

Just can't shift it.......

Only problem is I don't know who to........

 

[Luka Lennon]

----------Gomes
-Charlie King Bassong Ekotto
Lennon Hudd Palacios Kranjcar
--------Defoe Keano

2-0 us with Defoe and Keano scoring

espn classic showing a few old highlight reels of old games against manure over the course of the morning..

Ive got a feeling that we are going to get smashed today.

I know we can beat them.... But I just think we are going to get ruined :-(

 

[maltahotspur]

I've got a feeling that Harry will start GDS today in place of the unfortunate Luca.

The thing is that GDS is bound to get his chance and I feel that today could be the perfect opportunity for him to slot into the LM position. He has been hitting the headlines on the International stage for Mexico as everyone knows and he is also very high in confidence.

If Harry gives him the nod today, it could well provide GDS with the perfect motivation and tonic to produce a display so good to be remembered for years to come in Spurs history.

Therefore my team will be :

Gomes

Charlie Bassong King BAE

Azza Thudd Wilson GDS

Keane Defoe

 

[Dr Know]

1-0 to us Keane and Defoe to start and Crouch comes on and scores a header from a corner taken by Nicko

Hi everyone,

Im in Split and have looked at the LJs page and cant work out which channel its going to be on. Can anyone help?

Thanks,
Ravo

I know it would be hard to drop someone like defoe espec the form he is in but. He does struggle against the better teams, however on the other hand we are at home where our play suits his game as he has more space, I like the idea of gds aswell!..........so far from all this talk the only real conclusion is that we have got a wealth of options that all bring something different and could all change the game!

 

[chkthfc82]

i reckon will we go 2 nil up then f**k it all up from there as usual and lose 4-2!!!

only againist united, why?

 

[hughy]

I'd love to say it will be another 2-1 win to the spurs but I really can't see it happening! We'll"l be 2-0 down, get back in to it with a Hudd rocket, then lose another goal towards the end. I hope I'm wrong!

 

[sim0n]

HUDD any day.

THudd without question. Palacios/THudd central midfield is 4-0, don't fix it if it ain't broke... :grin:

I guess just put Krancjar in for Modric?

COYS!!!!!!!! :beer:

 

[Leachie]

We have to slip up eventually and I have a feeling today will be that day. We can't win forever!

 

[Bronno]

Well at least I won't have to be terrified that someones going to stick a leg out everytime Ronaldo gets the ball at his feet running into our box.

We're on better form than Man U, the lads seem to be confident, our squad has had less changes over the summer and we're at home.

Spurs win.
