Carling Cup final

[JackBuddy]

Sunday...

SAF has confirmed that he will be playing some youngsters such as Gibson and Welbeck... but it will still prove to be a tough challenge for Spurs. However I do have faith in the team (even if we do play Bent and Pavlyuchenko up front). They always put up a fight against the top teams and play with a lot of passion (which is probably why we haven't lost to a 'top 4' side in the league this season).

Anyway, I know you're predictions will probably go towards Man United but I wouldn't rule Spurs out...

Thoughts?

Gomes
Corluka King (if fit) Woodgate AE
Zokora
Lennon O Hara
Modric
Pavlyuchenko

Clearly not our strongest squad without our cup-tied january arrivals, but there is always a chance.

[Immenseman]

2-1 united, close game.

[Twist]

1-0 Spurs, Woodgate to score the winner again.

[busybabes]

Spurs will win. We are putting out a weakened team and Spurs will obiously have a strong team.

It'll be good to see Spurs win it.

[luce]

well i'm going so it better be ******* good and we better win lol i want to see united lift a trophy. Ronaldo and Rooney will be on the bench they have been the whole cup campaign.

[Excellent2]

Don't write off our young and old players. Rooney and Ronaldo don't make our entire squad. It will be a very close game but I can see us winning 1-0.

[JackBuddy]

Meanwhile, Sky Sports viewers will be able to see "Fan-o-Meter" readings during their coverage of the first domestic final of the season.
The readings will be based on a percentage share of the volume based on maximum decibel levels recorded over ten minute periods.*
Haha, that could be interesting.

[Excellent2]

I'd love to see welbeck play and get a goal... that kid is amazing.

[busybabes]

Haha, that could be interesting.
it's pointless though. who would want to see that

[Jack.Lfc]

Liverpool where the loudist fans to go to millenium stadium.

[Geraint]

Man Utd to lose because they're playing youngsters. Their excuse is sorted. Mickey mouse cup blah dee blah dee blah. :rolleyes:

well it's true. we are going to be playing youngsters because we have our eye on bigger and better trophies.

Same i love seeing young people playing and I hope one of them score our winning goal.

And Busy why be so negative?

[Jam]

well it's true. we are going to be playing youngsters because we have our eye on bigger and better trophies.

I don't see how its a 'lower' trophy? Its just the FA Cup without all the Cow pat and lower clubs.

Obviously, but it's still silverware. If you offered any team in England a place in the Carling Cup final 9 times out of 10 they will take it.

[Rarelime]

1-1 at end of normal time, 2-1 united in extra time.

when we win it'll be like wot r u talkin bout!!!

9/10 yeh - the smaller clubs

But you've just got to look at it as an oppurtunity for the big teams to add to their trophy case. I mean with this trophy, United could make the quadrople possible this season which, when you say it, sounds pritty impressive.

[busybabes]

yeah i'd like to win it but I don't want us to put out a strong team. more importnt trophies to win

Arsenal and Chelsea haven't won cups in a while now, considering they are in the 'top 4'. Chelsea fielded a full squad in last year's final, they went for it and wanted to win it.

Chelsea managed a good league run, carling cup final and champions league final pretty well.

[j4k3]

you going Jack?

[JackBuddy]

you going Jack?
I should be so lucky.

told you so.

[Immenseman]

1426: TEAMS Man Utd v Tottenham
Man Utd: Foster, Evra, Ferdinand, Ronaldo, Nani, Scholes, Welbeck, Gibson, O'Shea, Evans, Tevez. Subs to follow.
Tottenham: Gomes, Corluka, Assou-Ekotto, Dawson, King, Lennon, Jenas, Zokora, Modric, Pavlyuchenko, Bent. Subs to follow.

The 49th Carling Cup Final is underway at Wembley. Fantastic opening to the match with the lights, balloons and the tracksuits they were wearing and everything. The word "BELIEVE" spelt out in the United end was brilliant, aswell as the many Spurs flags being waved around in the Tottenham end. Tottenham in the white attacking from left to right in the first half.

[Jack.Lfc]

Man u singing about liverpool in a cup final, great fans.

[leah]

Jeff IS a legend. My idol :love3:.
Ben Foster, I've had a drink with him - what a save from Lennon shot :8.
EDIT: Ronaldo hits the post in the last 30 seconds, Nani can't follow up. It's Extra-time in the Carling Cup Final 2009.

For a little bit of ******** yourself on a plane you could of gone to Wembley and seen your team win some of the many silverware they're going to win this season, a true fan, been part of it but no you won't even go on a plane for your team.

[JackBuddy]

meh, pleased with the performance of the team and individuals such as jenas, lennon and even bent who did not stop running.

Shame O Shea didn't get his 2nd yellow (like he should have) but the same could be said about Ronaldo not getting a penalty. Unluckily for spurs, man u are far more experienced in the penalty department. I just feel that if Defoe hadn't have gone an injured himself and he replaced Pavlyuchenko (who was poor) then we may have clinched something.

[Rarelime]

Good performance, hopefully we can bounce back against Boro midweek. What a shame for Jamie O'Hara, must be devastated again.

Well flying could be a phobia. You can't exactly just choose to ignore a phobia, no matter how much you love football. :S

I bet Boro are rubbing their hands after Spurs have played their 3rd game in 6 days, one of them being 120 minutes.

No King, no Dawson, probably no woodgate, unfit Corluka. Looks like it will be Chimbonda and Gunter with Huddlestone and Corluka as make-shift centre backs :(

[Immenseman]

Boro will win 2-1 :8

[Rarelime]

No King, no Dawson, probably no woodgate, unfit Corluka. Looks like it will be Chimbonda and Gunter with Huddlestone and Corluka as make-shift centre backs :( + no lennon....:( Hopefully Giovani gets a start on the right side, he played well against Shakhtar. **** Bentley.

Bale left? I doubt Modric will be fit.

Mind you, Bale scored a cracking goal against Boro in the Carling Cup last year.

I'm sure it wont be that bad!
Huddlestone, Chimbonda, Gunter and Bale in defence, unless Corluka can play. Bale, Palacios, Huddlestone and Gio (hopefully). Pavlyuchenko and Keane. I don't think Harry will put on Gilberto and throw the game away lol.

Sunday and Sunderland will be our sixth game in 2 weeks... unfair much!? Why don't they arrange these cup games when the fixture list is less busy?!
