    come on sunderland!! loved hearing roy keanes song getting sung at anfield!

    Happy to have the point, disappointed at Utd's performance though


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25,953 ✭✭✭✭kryogen


    i think it was more down to how well spurs played in fairness, they defended from the front, never stopped closing down... very good performance from them, take nothing away from that,they didnt let us play well today, the team selection was a little wrong, but still spurs were the better team because they worked for it

    3-0 is flattering of course but fupp its a win and that what the doctor ordered.
    Crouch will naturally be benched for Chelsea. The formation was bizarre and Lucas suffered badly, Babel must have been bemused even Riise may feel hard done by.

    Yep fair enough really. Can't take anything away from Spurs, they played very well.

    pleased with the great performance from spurs.
    Utd looked pretty ordinary for most of the match, and I think that was down to how spurs played, rather than a bad day at the office for utd.

    Should have taken 3 points, but 1 is better than none. 13 games left, and they are all winable.
    Now, if we can just make sure that chelsea get stuck in traffic on the 24th feb :)

    You won't need that to happen if ye turn in performances like the one today or the CC Semi. Hound Chelsea like that and Berbatov, Keane and Lennon will do the rest.

    2 slight problems with that plan, ones called Drogba and others called Anelka.

    I thought today Spurs played a more tactical game than the last two games against United and Arsenal.They played a solid game for mostly 90 minutes this time out.They tried to play the same way last week against United as they did against Arsenal with a pretty open game but without offering as much.Today they had a gameplan and it worked and United scraped a draw.Kudos to Ramos and Spurs.They earnt a point whereas recent years they would have gotten nothing.

    Think Reading are in trouble now.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,968 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    They have paid the price for spending nothing (well 3 million) in a year.

    I tipped them at the start of the season for it. Second season syndrome and all that.

    Pity I didn't back it myself :(

    steady lads

    theres still derby, fulham, boro, sunderland, wigan and bolton, and King Kev has really got a lot to do to pull newcaslte out of their current form.

    and spurs are only 8 points above the drop zone too :)

    Huge result for Fulham. Hodgson may get them out of it yet. McBride coming back to fitness for them will be a huge plus as he adds a great focal point to their attack.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,692 ✭✭✭✭OPENROAD


    Great result for Fulham today, really hope they stay up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,165 ✭✭✭DEmeant0r


    Jimmy Bullard, what a player! Sets one up and scores another! I'm starting to feel more optimistic about the season now.
