Tottenham V Arsenal (Second Leg)

[slimboydim]

Good Morning All.
8PM Tomorrow, sees the second Leg of this years Carling Cup
Semi Final against A****** at The Lane. 1-1 from the first
game, which we should have won…
My guess is Ramos will play the strongest team possible, while
Wenger will field most of the players who have been used in
this competition so far, with some more established players on
the bench. Although one of the Sunday Papers was speculating
that he may start with more first team regulars.
There isn’t much Team News around yet…

This is an important game for us, and I just hope for once we
realise that we can win. In the first Leg and in the Premier game
there were enough chances for us to take victory. The players
need to understand that they can do it.
Tomorrow after the final whistle I don’t want to be typing about
bad decisions, what could have been, or how unlucky we were.
It is time for those players who have not been giving 100% to stand
up and be counted.
Play how we did second half Saturday, and we will be complaining
as we always do. Give it all like the First Leg, and put away the
chances when they come along, and we can make Wembley…
Would be a fantastic lift to the entire club and great for Ramos in his
first season.

We Can Do This…

What Are Your Views?




Good Luck.

Getting nervous now as the big day day looms large, this game is so very important for so many reasons not least we havnt beaten these ******* for years but I beleive a return to Wembley is key for future success!

I reckon Wenger will load that team with some of his big guns i really do or at least a bench full of em but I firmly believe the boys can do it as long as that midfield and defence of ours stick together and work as a unit!

Wonder who Ramos will go with upfront, personally I want Keane and Berba!

UP THE SPURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Old Yid]

I think we will do it.

I am very nervous (obviously) but i think we actually want it a lot more than they do.

2-1 to the Mighty Yids after a few scares (as usual).

[St.Helens Spurs]

I think the team pretty much picks itself and would expect the same line up as in the first leg. The two positions that require a bit of thought are right back and centre mid. Does he stick with Chimbonda who has been pretty woeful of late or play Stalteri who can be equally dubious. And centre mid does he play O'Hara or Huddlestone? I'm a big fan of Huddlestone I think the bloke is a genious but I think O'Hara will be more suited for this game. He is more athletic and tenacious than Hudd and I think it needs someone who can really get into them and put them under pressure in the midfield.

As for Arsenal I wouldnt expect to see many changes, maybe a couple of big guns on the bench.

We must not lose this game.

If we beat them we are only beating there kids, i'd be happier beating there full team.
A hollow victory as far as i'm concered. :3:

Not as far as I'm concerned. Any win against The Scum is a win. Its their choice who they put out. Let's face it, we couldn't do the job last year so a win tomorrow will be some form of progress too! Not to mention there is a place at Wembley up for grabs.

I cant beleive you wrote that I really cant! So we stuff em tomorow and head off to Wembley your feel "hollow" will you?

Do me a favour!

I wrote it because i don't feel we should make beating them our cup final every year, we should be aiming a bit higher.

[yidno1]

But thats just it we fail every time for the past 9 years to beat em, i was at the Lane that year 1999 when we beat em last and what a feeling that was.

We fail miserableyto beat the top four except Chelsea last year which i was delerious as i bet you were to?

I dont think your looking at the bigger picture here, its not just about beating the scum tomorow night regardless of what team they put out but also to reach Wembley!

[funster]

That's just it though. Tonight isn't our cup final. That's why we have to beat them. So we have a cup final to play in! Any cup semi-final would get me excited. Doesn't matter who we play. The fact that its the Arsehole just adds that extra edge.

[brain_chilled]

I cant see us losing this one. the players will be up for it, the crowd will be behind them, and every neutral wants spurs to win

And still people take the bait! :32:

Nice to see your getting your excuse in early, do I detect a hint of worry?

Seriously though, I dont mind a bit of banter its what forums are for. But dont come on here masquerading as a Spurs fan its seriously sad. Just come clean then we can have a proper crack?

[yidno1]

Right thats it im off to White Hart Lane now, into the Gillpin for some serious boozing lol Next time I come on here I had better be in a good mood!

COME ON YOU SPURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
