Match Tottenham v Manchester United - Carabao Cup - Thursday 19th at 8PM

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

May scan through some of the in match comments later today - guess it may be a bit messy at times..,, but omg,, that was another roller coaster of a game. This bloody club !

Nice to catch up with Nutter-Naylor Nutter-Naylor Mrs Perryman Mrs Perryman Spurshaker Spurshaker East Mid Yid East Mid Yid and also good to see 1882 1882 👍

On to the next round and see what that brings us...

COYS.

Always a pleasure mate.

1882 1882 was looking well.
 
Morning. Still struggling to compute last night's game but I woke up with a smile on my face.
This is partly due to dreaming about Deki last night. He was taking part in a televised celebrity house building competition. He was absolutely storming it, and came up with an innovative new way to put up curtain poles.
Wish I could order up Spurs dreams which were less mundane. I think it's my coping mechanism.

Pencil pleat, eyelet or gathered?
 
Well clearly Forster had bet the house on both teams to score, so at least he was able to pick up some dosh for tonight. Otherwise United could have been playing all night and not got a goal. Result, Frazer!!!

Special mention for Archie Gray. Must have broken the record tonight for blocking shots, heading away, and hardly gave any free kicks away. Left back right back centre back.
One of these days he might actually get picked in the midfield.
DJed showing Ange up again for being an idiot and not picking him in matches till the other day, and not in the Europa squad at all. Where we REALLY could do with him.
Well played Dom, again. Great target man, exactly what we needed when Kane left.
Kulu, ought to be captain.
Another match where Spurs do a very good impression of Fred Karno’s army. The neutrals’ darlings
Can’t wait to see those United goals again. I couldn’t bear to look at the screens during the game.
Spot on , can't argue with any of that
 
You should watch the interview and see for yourself, was clearly tounge in cheek but we've been here before, some people can't tell the difference when he's taking the piss and being serious, some of our fans are humourlous droids and pick apart and twist everything he says.

If you don't get his humour now then you never will I suppose.
Ange out are bots?

Whodathunkit?
 
Pensioner mate. Will see what Mr Levy charges us.


Hmm.....Pensioner you say... Sounds like a new opportunity at the Stadium retail outlets.

Nah you stick with Forster

I agree, we haven’t got much choice in the matter as neither Austin or Whiteman are good enough.

What’s concerning is when the camera kept focusing on Forster it looked like his head had gone which is an absolute no no for a keeper.

The combination of our suicidal play out from the back policy, the under hit passes and Forster seemingly not detecting the danger is something that Ange shouldn’t let happen again, especially when one of Forster’s biggest flaws is with the ball at his feet. I just hope Ange doesn’t continue with it as a) teams will target Forster and b) we cannot under any circumstances have Forster lose his head again as there’s no alternatives.
 
The dinosaurs Carragher and Neville will bang on but Forster is the sole reason United got back in that game. He'll know that.

However United were the better team in the first half imo and we have massive issues on our right. Either Porro is the problem or the system or both - but it needs sorting.

Christ I love/hate this team 😂
You can see most teams are now targeting the space in behind Porro ,definitely a cause for concern

Why is it suicidal to play out from the back?
 
Astonishing really spence hasnt played more games and earlier. Good player and prefer him at right back to porro.
I prefer him even more to Udogie at left back. On Sunday Ange will drop him and Udogie will get torn to bits from Salah. Spence is better than Udogie at everything. He’s a better passer,defender,more aggressive,better in the air,works harder,is a threat going forward and has so much more enthusiasm for the game but I guarantee you Udogie starts on Sunday.

Agreed. I noticed how poor Forster was playing out from the back first in the Roma game. He should have license to pop a few balls over the top and mix it up
 
Stayed away from here during the game.

WTaF was that all about?

We really do need to learn how to slow things down and take the sting out of games. The fact i bet not even the most deluded fan on here was feeling safe at 3-0 tells you all you need to know.
