Fixture Focus - Spurs (4 Mar 2012)



Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester United








After the humiliating defeat to a resilient Arsenal last weekend, Spurs will be facing yet another giant. Title aspirations aside, the main aim of going back to the Champions League is still paramount in our current campaign.

Spurs are going into this game with probably a few absentees. Parker is out due to suspension, and Walker, Van der Vaart and Bale are all doubtful for this game. With this, we are having several glaring "holes" in our formation, which means Redknapp may be forced to try out another tactic.

Manchester United are coming in with injury problems of their own, and not as invincible as the seasons before. Cleverley and Valencia are out, but Rooney may make a comeback in the lineup. Also, not discounting their veterans Giggs and Scholes, who made a difference in their game against Norwich last week.

Manchester United is still a team that we had yet to break the duck, after 10 winless games at home. Hope this season, there will be a difference.

COYS!!!!!
