Will we retain the Carling Cup?

[van_Pommel]

Simple poll. Just interested to see how many of you thing we'll do it.

Personally I dont think we will. I'd be a hell of a lot more confident if Palacios was available though.

 

[MattyP]

I've gone for the goat.

I don't think we will win but I hope we do. I don't want to jinx anything by voting either for or against us. So goat it was.

Even though they were under Avram Grant i never thought we would beat Chelski so you never know. I think a lot might depend on how they get on tonight at the San Siro

 

[garyhopkins]

I'm just dreaming of Heurelho doing a Tony Parks to shut up all the whining commentators who start talking about his mistakes from the moment he touches the ball...

 

[Evolution]

Gotta back the lads surely!!

It's a cup final after all so you can throw the form book out the window.

COYS!!

 

[Mornstar]

we don't stand a chance

 

[onemorespursfan]

If Spurs can beat Liverpools reserves, Arsenal's reserve and Chelseas first team, why not the Man Utd reserves to make it a clean sweep in the cup competitions over the 'top 4' in 2 years.

 

[jamesc0le]

we will win if we play this midfield

jenas--zokora--modric--lennon


although i would prefer to gamble with the height of the team, drop beni for gio and push jenas to left back or right back (with corluka going left)

Manchester United 1-0 Tottenham Hotspur

Dimitar Berbatov in the 88th minute.

 

[WhiteStripe]

Optimistic slant: We will defend well, keep it tight in midfiled and Zokora will score the winning goal in the 89th minute.

Realistic slant: We will get royally shafted by arguably the best club side in the world.

6 days to a cup final and most Spurs fans are backing the opposition, fair enough lets hope the players feel the same then shall we? then we'll be proved right and have no complaints when we lose.

So what do we think would be an acceptable defeat? 2-0, 4-0? I suppose 5 would be a good cut off for us to start feeling disappointed.

Come on guys we're going to win trust me!

gotta remember that Fergie has "promised" to continue playing the kids that got them to the final in the final :shrug:

press seem to have glossed over this (Just like the Ronaldo kick at the weekend )

so that means probably, Foster, O'Shea, Nani, Gibson, Anderson, Welbeck all featuring at least on the bench.
I would expect Ronaldo (who should be suspended like SWP) Berba, and Rooney to be on the bench depending on whether Rooney starts the Inter game tonight.

I've already backed the Spurs @5's in the hope that when the team sheets are shown our odd will come in :shrug:

Fergie said last week that Gibson will start in the final 'definitely'. Let's hope Wellbeck and some others do too, but he will put the big guns on the bench at least.

 

[ultimateloner]

I think we have a 30% chance of winning and our goals are likely to come from set-piece.

The reason for the pessimism is that unlike Chelsea last year, Man Utd is a much faster side offensively. They've got players who could beat ours 1-on-1 (Tevez, Ronaoldo, Rooney, Berba, Giggs) so it's hard for us to keep tight. Our wingers would have to track back alot.

 

[Welshiespursboyo]

Spurs to win 24.5 - 0

Put a bet on it people, the odds are good at the bookies!

 

[DoublePivot]

We organize and hit on the counter. It's not Spurs style, but fuck it, play whatever stoic system is needed to win the cup. We will benefit from the Mourinho-Alex shit storm that will hit after the game, and they will be distracted. We will win, but it might be on penalties.

 

[alextheyid]

lets hope they get a torrid time of things tonight...a few injuries..perhaps a goal lose 1-0 etc..

 

[mark87]

I dont think we will win it, but then again I didn't think we would beat Chelski last year so.....

 

[spurslenny]

3-0 to utd i'm sorry to say
