Morning Boys
Thanks for getting us started
Again, I am never confident about my lot these days
BTW....Hate the Cock!!
A couple of funny interviews with an impersonator of Jose and Ollie
Good morning, Bob and Dave. I missed the first match , but saw the Hammers vs Foxes . Hammers went three tip through a pair of Lindy goals then the Foxes mounted a light fight , but could only pull it back to 3-2 as the Hammers hung on for another win
Tottenham Hotspur (4-2-3-1) Lloris; Aurier, Dier, Rodon, Reguilon; Ndombele, Hojbjerg; Lo Celso, Lucas Moura, Son; Kane.
Substitutes: Hart, Alderweireld, Tanganga, Winks, Lamela, Sissoko, Alli, Bale, Vinicius.
Manchester United (possible 4-2-3-1) Henderson; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw; McTominay, Fred; Pogba, Fernandes, Rashford; Cavani.
Substitutes: de Gea, Telles, Williams, Tuanzebe, Mata, Matic, van de Beek, Greenwood, Amad.
I think this game will be pretty dull
Toon came from behind to win 1-2 at Turf Moor. It will now be tough to see the Cottagers surviving
I daw the impersonations. He's hilarious and his impersonations are spot on
I hate the COCK too. No need to put every match on today
Hammers fourth, only a point behind the Foxes. it will be quite a battle for those final two CL places during the run-in
Teams out at the Tottenham Stadium
Why can't the COCK just let you keep on the same stream!
A United win would pretty much wrap up second.... a loss would kind of bring them back to the pack
Morning, boys - I hate the Cock too. I'm trying to get the match up and it's giving me an error. Trying....my patience.
Big comeback for the Toon
Bloody online watching..... I now have to hide my phone!!
I have the match on the telly thru Roku but will put the Masters on the telly for the last match of the day.... might not even tune in the Bramell Lane match up
Two minute silence for Prince Phillip.....two minutes is a long time to be silent!
Off we go
COME ON MAN U
COME ON MAN U
COME ON MAN U
Entertain me!!!
We're underway at Shite Fart Lane and I've finally got the link working. Grrr!
Great lines from the impersonator..... Bale's favorite club....5 iron!
Pogba to give us 25%
Moura wins an early corner for the Spuds. Come on, United!
United already had a penalty at OT in their last meeting
Son with a Scholesey style effort - well over the mark.
Lucas Moara has s shot blocked for a corner to Spurs
United trying to keep their away streak going....close to catching Arsenal for second place and then catching Arsenal for top
I am behind you!!
BTW...if it was Scholesy type....it would have been in the back of the net!
I'm here for the match, having watched straight from kickoff, but fighting technical issues
Already passing around at the back....took 30 seconds.... haven't gone anywhere
I read that the Spuds last did a league double vs United in 1990. That streak must not end today
The only United player that ever sprints forward with the ball....taking the space given.....is Bloody Harry Maguire!!!
Spurs man still laying down....get up
Harry Kane's past his peak? Don't be daft Lee. He's top of the Golden Boot and Assists chart.
Dixon thinks Kane is past his date and missed the boat to leave
Quick free kick taken....given away even quicker
Agree with Dixon about brining everyone back for a corner!
Exactly....keep players up the field to make them keep players back....not rocket science
That's a creditable win for West ham but I still don't like them.
Already 10 minutes in....United have done nothing!!
To be fair, neither team has done anything. That's the modern game. They're afraid to lose.
Sunshine still has some silly ideas about the first double vs United since 1990. That's really silly
Come on United.....DO SOMETHING!!!
Pogba loses the ball in the midfield again....how does he lose possession so many times!
He's huge!...Supposed to skillful....Supposed to be World Classs...won the World Cup
Even though both teams that played in the last match are defensive minded they attacked more than these two
Oh - Rash should have hit that first time after the pass from Cavani. He gave Dier a chance to get back.
Pogba heads down a long ball to Thomas Edison Cavani then Rash has a shot blocked by Dier for a corner
Rashford almost in... shot blocked
Finally something!
It comes from a longish ball....just like the goal on Thursday
DO IT MORE OFTEN
A foul off the corner so a complete waste
United's corner... of course....comes to nothing
N'Dummy gets a case of McTomain poisoning so the ref gives the United player a booking
Stupid push by Maguire..... so insane
Huge screams like a little girl and McTom gets a yellow
Shocker....he's ok
Free kick chance for Spurs.... the go short....stuns me!!
I have a horrible feeling that Liverpool will sneak into the Champions League spots!
Do you lot think there is a still a chance that Fulham might stay up and Newcastle might go down?
In fact, I think Chelsea and Liverpool will make it! Leicester are dropping
Today's score was big for Newcastle
They could have gone into their match inside the drop zone but now they are SIX points clear!
I can't see it, really. They just look unconvincing, even in their win yesterday. The goals have really dried up for the front men. When was the last time that Mane scored? I actually fancy Chelsea's chances of sneaking in.
United try a long ball to Rash...that's what they need to do...apart from passing it better
Do you think Leicester are safe?
I am scared that Liverpool are starting to win....not playing well!
If Spurs win this, they are win with a shot as well!
I don't see the Cottagers staying up. As Dave stated that six point gap will be too much to make up for the Cottagers , who have only won five matches all season and just six matches left to play
Bruno can't keep his control close
He has really been off recently!
a quarter way thru this match.... neither team has done much!
Drives me nuts
Yeah - I think that Leicester will just about stay in the top four. But I think Chelsea are a better side than West Ham. I can't see WH representing England in the CL. They'd probably go out in the qualifying rounds to some Greek outfit.
In terms of the top four We will have a better idea after this match. Pool only three pints out of fourth. I don't think the Foxes will finish in the top four and not necessarily the Hammers . I think Chelsea and Pool will finish in the to four.
Neviller took over from Dixon for England's #2 shirt
Was Dixon in the 96 Euros or was it Neville by then?
It hasn't been much to write home about, has it? But it's a lovely day in WNY and we're due to do some gardening later on and I'm making my spaghetti sauce, so it's all good.
Boring boring United
Boring boring United
You should get started with it now.... you wouldn't miss much!
The CL format changed a couple of seasons ago. All four PL sides now automatically qualify for the group stages, but I agree with you that the Hammers would struggle in the group. Chelsea and Pool will do similar to what they have done this season in the CL
At this point, I'd be happier if Spurs rested Harry Kane and just had him doing some light training every day in preparation for the Euros. It's only a couple of months away now.
I am hoping for Leicester and West Ham for the CL....love to see both Chelsea and Liverpool both miss out
Who cares how they'd do!
Of course, Chelsea are favorites to get into the semis of the CL this season....they still have that route
Doing well here. Almost finished with repairs. The repairmen waiting for a part for our backyard gate to arrive on Tuesday and by then we should be finished. Then cleaning and a garage sale before we put the house up for sale. Getting clsoer
EVERY BLOODY GAME IS THE SAME FROM UNITED
THEY ARE SO BORING!!!!
Even Lee Dixon is admitting that it's been a bore. I may need a long nap after this one.
That's great David
Where in Carolina would you move to?
United just give the ball away in the midfield so many times!!
Agreed. Your spaghetti sauce is far more entertaining than this nonsense on the COCK
Well, the problem is the coefficient. If West Ham flop, it means that the Premier League are at risk of getting fewer slots.
Pogba with a chance to go forward....too slow... comes to nothing
PATHETIC
The thing that annoys me about OGS....he should know how United are supposed to play!
I watched United at Granada on one of the Spanish Language channels on Thursday. Granada an inferior version of this United side. They have a similar style of play
https://twitter.com/stretfordpaddck/status/1380524539004788739?s=10
He should watch this!!!
Hope we can find it over here!
United were pathetic in Spain!!
GOAL! One chance, and a goal. Cavani puts United 0-1 up!
WAY HAY! THOMAS EDISON CAVANI GIVES UNITED THE LAD
Pogba puts in Cavani.... will it count?
Was he onside?
Was there a foul? NEVER A FOUL!!!
Great stuff there from United and a deadly finish.
He's onside....never a foul!!
SHouldn't even be looked at!
Number One Son down, holding his face. Jose will want the goal disallowed. Will McTomain be called for a foul on Number One Son?
VAR Check going on now. Nothing in it for me.
Arlo wants McTom to give him another yellow!!
Referee's going to have a look - not good.
I think Lee Dixon wants a second yellow for McTomain. These announcers looking for controversy
Arlo is a nut!!!
He's checking
That is so stupid!
I didn't see anything meriting a booking or disallowed goal
Bloody hell - he's overruled it! I cannot believe it. Ridiculous. That was a good goal.
If this is called back.... it is ridiculous
NO GOAL
ABSOLUTLEY RIDICULOUS!!
I can't believe it!!
It was Son's foul in the first place!
BLOODY HELL! It's disallowed. It was an accidental collision. Then why wasn't it a second booking? It doesn't make sense
Ole is not a happy chappy, and he's right to be angry. That was highway robbery.
IT IS STUNNING!!!
Son fouled him
VAR is ridiculous in terms of how it's being used in the PL> It either needs to be modified by the PL or scrapped
Really poor from Son as well, who went down as if shot.
When he first came to the screen...he should have seen it and said no foul!
I am stunned!
Of course, Arlo is thrilled
Agreed, Bob and Dave. A stunningly ridiculous decision
Arlo still liking it
I was thinking the same. Son was not touched hard enough to be that seriously injured . It's cheating and the ref is being too easily conned
I am so fed up with this sport!!
I can't believe I am saying it but I don't know how much more I can take of it!!
And of course go down the end and score through Son. I'm really fed up now.
DAMN! SO SERIOUSLY INJURED HE GIVES THE SPUS THE LEAD
And now Son gives Spurs the lead
SO PATHETIC
They're going on about the great passing , but what about the missed kick from lindelof when Kane passed to Mora? Then Mora passed to Son for a far post tap in
What's this now - Cavani is angry with Rodon for going down too easily. Gets a yellow card. He's still angry.
Now Cavani gets a yellow
That guy is no where near touched!
This may be of more interest to Bob, but not sure. With that Toon win the Evil Blades could be relegated next weekend. Bob would be pleased
Son is complaining that he didn't foul there!! SERIOUSLY!
Son down again and gets another foul
Lovely - I can't wait to see them relegated. The Gunners need to put the hammer down on them today, right?
It's all boiling over now - Bruno is claiming that Hyppia elbowed him.
Of course several results would have to occur. Evil Blades lose to the Gunners today and Wolves a week from tomorrow. Seagulls get a point vs Toffees tomorrow, and Toon vs the Hammers on Saturday
This ref is wearing white and blue
An LOB blogging trio of stoppage time minutes
A fortnight from now looks more realistic for the Evil Blades, but a week from tomorrow is possible
I am still stunned about the disallowed goal....the sport is ruined!
It was more a foul by Son than it was by McTom. He was grabbing him by the arm
Oh - Bruno had a chance there to chip one over to Cavani - too much of the spicy mustard on the ball.
Terrible cross by Bruno.....wake up!!
In terms of the coefficient one bad season from the Foxes and Hammers wouldn't be enough. Several poor seasons is a different story because I think it's based over a five year period if I'm not mistaken
I totally understand your outrage. It should really be 1-1 on the evidence.
Spuds one up at the half thanks to United being jobbed by the ref
Agreed, bob, but not surprising from a Jose side
That's half-time then. It was all pretty boring for the first half hour. And then it all kicked off. United giving Chris Kavanaugh an escort off the pitch.
They are okaying it in the studio
SO STUPID
Now they are saying the VAR is ruining the game
The second half is underway from SFL 2.0
Off for the second half
United need to come out enraged!!
They haven't
SHOOT THE DAMN BALL RASHFORD
I wonder if Bob is working on the spaghetti sauce, which is far m ore entertaining than the match
Now Fred is in the book
Bookings are a joke!
You look back at the 70s and 80s....players were incensed when getting a card....becuase they were a rarity
These days.... double figure cards in a game is a norm!
Obiwan can't volley it into a dangerous spot
Another stupid foul
That Shaw was a nice long diagonal to Obi Wan, but his volleyed cross was useless. Fumbled by Lloris then gathered
I would have if I was him
I don't like the fact that it seems like every little minor foul is a card . It's ridiculous and destroying the game
COME on United...... at least look as if you want to score
OH! Near post shot from Cavani off a Pogba pass wide from a couple yards out.. Off of Joe Rodon for a corner
Poor corner cleared by Harry Kane then a useless pass from Fred who needs to be subbed
Another wasted corner from United
It landed in a dangerous place but no red shirt there!
Know Little Joe, he's going to have Spurs sit on this 1-0 lead
United can't pass the ball to each other!
McTom with a shot saved
Nice save by Lloris from a nice long range strike from McTomain . That's more like it
Now United have a corner. They need to make these count. Corner from Bruno cleared, but United keep possession
Next season....Maybe Pogba will play well away from home....their away kits have blue in it.... he'll think he is playing for France
WAY HAY! FRED , OF ALL PEOPLE TIES IT UP FOR UNITED. FIRST PREM GOAL SINCE SEPTEMBER 2017
GOAL.... Fred scores off the rebound from a Cavani shot....surely it will be called back
WELL ON
One touch passing and Fred put through Thomas Edison Cavani. His shot was saved by Lloris and Fred put away the rebound to tie it up
Was that against Wolves? I was in Naples, Florida for that game
Bob can stay with his sauce and garden!
COME ON UNITED! LET'S WIN THIS.
Pogba runs forward....SHOOT!
Horrible cut back pass from Bruno. United could have had another scoring chance
Good save by Hendo off of a Son shot
Great kick save after Aurier had a shot well blocked
Cissy on for Lo Celso
My link went for a minute
LM went down like a little girl...nothing called
I just read your comment. You may have been in Naples for that last Fred goal. Not sure if it was against Wolves, but any goal from him is a collector's item and to think I was calling for him to be subbed. That's probably why I'm not a manager
LOL! I'm back from starting the sauce and a bite to eat and happy to see that United are level.
Oh - great save by Lloris there from Bruno's shot.
Dixon thinks Rash is hurt
Great shot by Bruno....great save...DAMN IT
OH! Thought Bruno gave United the lead. Lloris did well to turn it around
Look what happens when you shoot!!
Corner to United....chance gone then!
Pogba Shaw does head well wide off the corner
Weak header from Pogba
Welcome back, Bob. Dave wants you in the garden, LOL!
The two numpties trying to be Morcambe and Wise comedy duo
Just shut up
Or into the sauce
I'll be in the garden soon enough, boys.
I've been thinking that but for Lloris Spurs would be about where Wolves and Saints are in the table. Do you all agree?
USELESS cross by Obiwan.....does he ever practice them?
They're not even fit to clean Morecambe and Wise's boots, or for thjat matter, laundry
I don't rate Lloris much
What the hell was Pogba trying there!
TURN AND SHOOT!
Luke Shaw gets a yellow card for a professional foul.
There Shaw is a booking as Obi Wan blocks for a Spurs corner
Is there any chance that Spurs could still get into Europe?
I agree that Lloris is not Shilts or Jennings , but better than any keeper we have. Who would be a good keeper for United to sign this Summer? Neuer? any thoughts?
That pass by Fred... to Pogba.... he had FIVE men around him
STUPID!!
They could still get CL
United totally dominant now; Spurs are embarrassing at home.
EVERY FOUL IS A YELLOW CARD
FIVE at least
Spurs is seventh if this result holds, so an excellent chance of being in the EL again. Another shot at the EL is beating Citeh in the LC final in a fortnight. They're five points behind a CL spot, so that's a slim possibility
Well, there is no chance of that, IMHO. But what about the Europa League. What number of teams qualify - fifth and sixth? Fifth, sixth and seventh?
Like for lie as Mason Greenwood is on for Rash
Greenwood coming on for Rashford now - another disappointing outing for him.
On comes Greenwood for Rashford
I got a goal from Fred today but Rash got me 3 points, Kane has half a point!
Where is Stuart Dallas when you need him!
Oh - Spurs try to break through Kane. He eventually gets it back and tries one at the near post. Good save, Henderson.
