Have to agree with the match report. MU - unfortunately - found their best form and we couldn’t live with it. The ref let them make a mug of him - what else is new? - but we were outclassed, simple as that

I’m very surprised we are not being more harsh with Keane. He was useless and is blatantly not cut out for that position. What with Gio being knackered I would’ve put Krancjar straight into the fold - alright he hasn’t trained with the rest much as yet but he knows the premier league and knows man u and can actually play in that position. What Keane is good at is dropping into space behind and that is exactly what we needed. Harry should’ve played him in that position instead of Crouch or dropped him.

As for moaning about Berbatov’s dive I despise the way he left as much as the next fan, but you just can’t go lunging in from behind on the edge of the area, ok it was to the sort of from the side but we would have been in uproar if the same happened at the other end. I was in no way surprised to see it given and in no way surprised that it resulted in a goal.

It was plain to see that we have a problem defensively at right back. Charlie is good defensively but his pace is laughable (soemone should tell him to take bigger steps when running) and Hutton is great at going forward but was caught out several times in half hour defensively.

On a good note to finish BAE looked awesome from where I was sat.

All the people banging on about Gio, he was playing for Mexico last week so will of been knackered… If Harry had the option he would of rested Palacious as well. Expect to see Gio play a part against chelscum tho.

Cobra i don’t no if your taking the piss but if a goaly is caught taking this heart attack drug then there’s your answer. And stoney yes my grammar is not up to scratch and don’t fucking insult my intelligence iam not against anybody like yourselve stoney having a spliff or sniffing head wrecking charlie but when a team takes energy drugs to win against my team then hi care .If my statement is wrong then why is mister Ferguson objecting to the new drug laws that should already be implemented .These new laws would stop fans like me having to make excuses every time we get beat it would have meant 30 top players would have to tell 5 times a year instead of random some players don’t get tested this is the same tests that athletes have to do.Sol Campbell also voiced is objections and said footballers are a special case and he is right they get away with it .This would stop players like UTD captain running away from testers maybe that’s why Fergie objects . One last thought chelsea new manager one of is players is serving a 2 year ban for taking the latest steroid no bulk but all the power that year for the first time ACMilan finished outside the champions league spot there treatment room was called the laboratory so expect chelsea to run a lot and like malouda and Head case Droga .The only tactics Harry needs to in ploy is help these new laws get implemented and then ma by the top cartel will be broken and teams that are rubbish will be relegated and me and stoney can be proper fans talking tactics and not energy cheats like DAVSPURS ME NO WAY

I want to say: 1. I thought the ref had a fair game. 2. We lost because, despite our early goal, we really weren’t up for it. That’s sad. 3. Our worst spell came when United went down to 10 men. 4. Hutton is a sorry excuse for a human being. I’ve heard others say this and now I’ve been converted. 5. We clearly missed Luka Modric. 6. Crouch gets blown up because he always uses an arm to hold his opponent down when jumping. 7. It might all have been very different if Crouch had scored instead of hitting the crossbar. That’s all.

davspurs youre right, they werent even tired after the match, and definetely a few red faces to go with their shirts, the news will reveal it one day, when football players will suffer for taking these enhancing drugs.

look we lost to the winners of the premier league, get over it, what do you expect when huddlestone hides on the pitch, jenas comes on , has a great 5 mins then does his usual and dissapears, and then we have a defender who lets people walk past him, and that person is hutton, who was absolutely useless, these three players were total liabilities, and not good enough to play for spurs, they kept saying weve only got ten men, well i thought we only had 8 men against their ten, dont worry though harry will have seen this, and will remedy it, and get rid of these players in jan.
chelsea will feel the backlash of our defeat, i dont think theyre as good as utd ,no way.

Hutton cant even pass the ball well. He is a tall lad, but he falls easily and he didnt even cover his own left back position.

Harry should consider Gio on the left and not Keane. Keane on the left? doesnt work at all. I hate it when during counter attack, when the ball gets to him, he is too slow to pass it upfront, and yet he brings it to far left and put on a show near the crowd with his not so impressed ball dribblings.

Hope Harry will do something on the trip to Stamford Bridge. COYS.

I really do not understand Harry. Dos Santos should and must be given a chance!!!!!! Robbie Keane was making a big fool of himself on the left of the wing against MU. And Dos Santos was not even on the bench. We need at least one other exciting player, other than Lennon, on the pitch. Used to be Modric but he is now injured. As such, Dos Santos must be given the chance to impress.

Modric is at fault LOL

I blame Harry… obviously Keane was not working out on the left… why not have Gio on the bench just in case? Why not shift Lennon to the left (away from Evra) and bring in Bentley on the right? All we would need from Bentley is the long ball placed perfectly on Crouch’s head… no need to drive in. With 1 man down, that would have pulled Evra out from near the box and created some gaps for us to attack. Why bring in Kranjcar against United? He’s pretty much only had one training session with the squad.

But I have to give it to Fergie and United… they played really well! They were even better when Berba was off the pitch. That was a delight to see. Let’s not dwell on the loss. Let’s build on the positives instead and mentally be prepared for an even tougher match next week.

COYS!!!!!!!!
