Not sure I'm looking forward to playing Man City in the cup final on this showing. Frightening at times.

Full team I'd fancy us to catch them. Martinez is a massive loss.

Fair play that you're in the team.

If you can't take what I meant from that then I can't help you. Then again this is the same 'man' who refers to Liverpool as Loserpool like an 8 year old in the playground so hardly surprising you're a bit slow on the uptake.

Really? Full teams, and that city team makes wee boys of any other team in the league atm. I have no idea why you'd fancy United over them unless blind luck.

How many 1st team United players would start for City? 
And I don't mean that as a slight on United.

Great stuff.

At this stage with the form that City are in I wouldnt even be concerned about the FA Cup the priority is top 4 and CL.

Problem is the team seem to be running out of legs and bodies at the wrong time of the season. Hopefully the rest from the Thursday nights will help refresh them for a final push to get into that top 4 slot. Make a massive difference for the transfer windows and attracting players, plus that Thursday - Sunday schedule is ridiculous to maintain.

Liverpool seem to be hitting their straps at the right time for a push so it is going to take a good run of wins to hold them out.

Maguire available tonight and doesn't make the bench. Surely that's the end of him, though need him out in the summer and not end up with a Phil Jones scenario paying him a fortune for whatever left on his contract.

How are they going to get rid of a lad with 2 years on his contract and on £8,464,286 yearly contract (about £162K a week)?

Man Utd and Spurs are 2 weak teams. Anything could happen.

EtH subs have been horrendous. Fred's performance is a joke.

[Cunny Funt]

A very controlling and composed first half performance, full value for the 2-0 lead. The opposite in the 2nd half and could well have lost however had Bruno hit the net instead of the crossbar it would likely be game over.

Little or no quality on the bench but they had to be brought on with a lot of the starters having played 120 minutes on Sunday. Fred must have thought he was playing for Tottenham, very good at finding the white jerseys.

At least a point picked up tonight yet still work to be done to secure a top 4 finish and plenty of tough fixtures to play in the remaining 7 games.

[Milltown Row2]

First point against a top 9 team away from home! They need to score 3 goals away from home to win

[NAG1]

I think these games are really giving ETH the opportunity to see the quality of the overall squad and some players are definitely playing themselves out the door.

It was nearly too easy for Utd in the first half so was no surprise when Spurs finally got their act together that the team couldnt get back going again. In saying that should have been a done deal and 3 points.

Did laugh at the United fans singing at Harry Kane.

Filled the togs

Bottled it two Thursday nights in a row

Fantastic season all the same winning the Mi Wadi cup and FA Cup runners up

This is becoming a habit now from ETH... substitutions at the wrong times e.g. Sevilla 1st leg, Newcastle and last nite cost that game..it shows how bad things are when even the commentators are saying how bad Fred was... Malacia not much better...looks out of his depth.. a bench full of non premier league standard layers is killing utd...

I can't blame him on this occasion for the subs, starting to get over run in mid field so the logical choice was to bring Fred on for legs and energy as he was fresh from the weekend. ETH cant be responsible for the performance he turned in when he came on.

He can't keep playing the same 11 all the time, especially with the number of games already in the tank in most of these players. Strengthens his case in the summer I would expect to see more outgoings than players coming in, but hopefully the quality will be better.

All depends on the next few days and the outcome of this bidding process.
