Tottenham Vs Manchester United: Match Thread

[YiddoInPoland]

Info graphics from spurs at the moment are nice to look at but make terrible reading, the last lot showed our 9 goals in the league stat and this new lot just show how terrible we have been against united in the PL

big game tomorrow, not sure how it will go to be honest especially with no discript football of late, anyway COYS

Match odds

Tottenham 7/4
Draw 5/2
Man Utd 13/8

I personally thought the bookies would have had Man United stronger favorites for this

 

[ohtottenham!]

Hope we don't play our revolutionary onside trap tomorrow.

Can't help but get excited by this game. I know we've been less exciting to watch than a slow motion video of grey paint drying, but if any game is going to see an upturn in our performances, it's this one.

I can live with a defeat. There's no shame in being beaten by United. I just want to see some spirit, some belief, and a sense of urgency.

Chiriches and Kaboul at CB please.



I know it'll never happen, but let a drunk man dream.

Yep. The fans need to be up for it from the start, but the team needs to come out guns blazing too otherwise it will dampen the atmosphere.

It's why I don't fully agree with AVB's criticism of the crowd. It's very difficult to maintain a positive and passionate atmosphere when the team you're cheering on are taking a slow and steady approach all the time.

I want AVB to come out wearing this and riding a horse. I want his last words to be. On my command. Unleash hell!!!

If RVP's out we might lose 2-0, if he plays we'll get battered.

Oh Shizzzzzzzzzzzzzle! LETS DO THIS! LETS GO FUCKING MENTAL, LETS GO FUCKING MENTAL!

 

[WiganSpur]

Come on you fucking Spurs, we need some intensity, tempo & aggression for once. We need to bring the fear factor back to WHL.

 

[Macspur261]

I'm hoping for a fast start out of the blocks and a performance that says we want to win this game.
If that happens and we lose a 5 goal thriller I'd still back AVB.

If its lennon, siggy townsend and defoe as the front 4, i doubt there will be much cheering.

FACT! Just 4% of Tottenham's shots have been inside the penalty box. #THFC

Here is a fact to cheer everybody up

Including penalties!

Hopefully that will put to bed the bollocks about how we're creating more chances than any other team. We might take wild shots to nothing from 25 yards every time we get the opportunity, but that's not the same as carving our clear chances.

 

[DiscoD1882]

Oh. It was all so positive in here for a while. Who let in the pessimist!?!? Come on! Own up!

Now that's more like it. All this shit about us having the most shots in the League and people trying to present it like we're creating the most in the league.

Completely underlines what I thought, loads of long range shots due to frustration with our inability to break teams down.

I don't even think I blame the players too much to be honest. You could put Xavi, Iniesta and Alonso in this team and it would not make a difference.

I pray to God we win tomorrow, for AVB's sake, because if we play badly and lose, well I know what I would want to happen. If we win, it could be a turning point but only if we go on a unbeaten run and keep it going, like after the Everton game last season (which was at a very similar time)
