Man City vs Spurs |
|
18th December. Tottenham win at 2.9 on Betfair. It matters more when there's money on it

I think Ramos will bring out a close to full squad for this match.

A game going into extra time will benefit Arsenal come the Saturday matchup.

So Ramos is like Rafa - likes little cups
As Smurf says - it'll be good for Arsenal if it goes into extra time |

Yawn. It was a cup you used to strive to win once upon a time. I hope extra-time can be avoided for obvious reasons. It could be a very very tough game - we will have to pull out all of the stops to get a result in our favour. Anyone remember the Cup game v City a few years back, when we were 3-0 up...against ten men? I never take anything for granted since then! |

Early goal for Defoe but Zokora's just been sent off
Sopcast stream wasnt working for me so im listening to the radio, sounds like Zokora didnt evn make contact with the player but got the ball, gets sent off for 'intent'  |

Got a stream now - thanks mont!

No worries matey.
The red card was a strange decision to be honest. Zokora went in with both feet but didn't catch the player at all. A yellow card for a sloppy attempt to win the ball would've been fair. The bad part about all this is that Zoks will miss the Arsenal game through suspension which almost eclipses any chance we did have of getting anything from the game. The rest of the players will also be much more fatigued. Ah well, it'll be interesting to see if we can battle it out and keep City at bay for the remaining hour. I have faith. |

Isnt there some rule about a ban starting 7 days after a red card to allow appeals? Might be in fo Scum game then take the three game ban, just as we are getting Keane back from a equally horrible tackle.
So 0-1 at halftime but we are down to ten men having lost Zokora who was playing centerback, only one centerback now with Chimbonda tucked in and Tainio on for Defoe to play RB if im seeing it correctly. We owe Man City a ten man beating so lets hope we can hold on to this one, dont like our chances with this referee tho, very odd display. |

Wait do red cards in the Carling Cup carry on into the EPL?
|
||||||||
|

|
|
Robbo!
 What a save!
Edit: Yes it does smurf, Keane is out of this game cos of his PL sending off so must go other way too. |
||||||||
|

|
|
TWO NIL GET IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YESSSSSSSSSS!
|
||||||||

I'm in heaven mate - this is unbelievable! It's not over yet but if we hang on to this then it'll be an amazing win. Robbo and Berbs have been immense and Steed took the goal very well. Lovely jubbley.
We're showing exactly the kind of resilience that we needed earlier in the season. Let's just hope we can see it through. |

Arsenal could be going into extra time....

Great performance from th lads, to lose our makeshift centerback after 19 mins then to hold on for all that time and knock them off on the break late on to make it two, magic.
Great games from Lennon, Berbs, Kaboul, Robbo, everyone did great IMO. Solid defending at theback with Tainio Chimmy Kaboul Lee , all top draw. Referee should still get his payout from City, he did his best not his fault they couldnt take advantage of it. Another good cameo from Ohara, kid looks good. Semifinals here we come
Oh and Ramos OWNS Sven. |

Great result under the circumstances. It was really nice to see everyone pull together and put absolutely everything into holding onto our lead. Everyone ran themselves into the ground and played fantastically well but I have to give a special mention to Berbatov: he held the ball up well, played some lovely passes and showed some magical skill at times. I've not seen him put more effort into a match since he joined Spurs.
It's also nice to see some of the youngsters get some game-time. O'Hara looks very promising indeed. |

Didn't watch this since I was watching the other matchup. (obviously)
Man City's number 1 priority. BUY A STRIKER!!! But seems like you guys were running around all game like maniacs. You guys are gonna be tired come the second half on Saturday. I'm sure Arsenal will be playing at blistering pace to take advantage of it. |
