It was not vintage i agree with that… but if Ronnie and Wayne could cooperate like they did, tevez could make those runs, and berba keeps feeding thoe throughs, we’d have on of the most if not the best, attacking line up in the world…. We need an experienced right back… dont get me wrong i love rafael and o shea has done a good job there… but looking at evra, vida and rio… theres this gut feeling the right is penetrable…. Wayne should play on the left more often… he might not like it but its where he does the most damage… on the flanks…

As for the penalty, yeah i think Gomes got a touch… but if carrick had went through he would have scored, he might have touched the ball but not strong enough and still left it in carricks path which would have led to a goal….

so any thoughts on those Kaka and Benzema rumors?

At half time I was not feeling great about this (that was an understatement by the way). 2-0 down to a team we had had two 0-0 draws with. What a recovery. I think we would have won even without the pen. We would have found a goal from somewhere and Spurs would still have collapsed.

But how much more nerve-shredding can this season get??

COME ON YOU REDS!

When we are bad we are really really bad. And we were for 45 minutes. The third goal was more likely to come from Spurs. So were they cheated, as some of their more backboneless fans urge? Let’s not forget that this is a club which last won the League 48 years ago. Since then it’s been won by Ipswich, Derby County, Nottingham Forest and Leeds (remember them?).

My first thought was – No Pen. But then, on the second or third slomo replay it was quite clear that Carrick nicked the ball past Gomez. Did Gomez get a touch? I’m not absolutely sure but I think he didn’t. So I disagree with our website host, excellent though his insights usually are. Penalty. Brilliant decision from a top notch referee. But now nice for United to be playing against a team which obligingly collapses when something goes against them, leaving their supporters to whinge. If we Mancs were like that we’d have gone home at half time.
