Unlucky for the sending off, felt dirty agreeing with Gray on that but Vidic almost sold the jerseys trying to pinch Van De Vaart's top.

 

Lots of huffing and puffing but not much real goal threat, defences and keepers did very well on both sides.

 

I don't know about Gray's view on the red.  I still think he was reflecting on what he thought was a harsh first yellow card, as that second foul brings about a yellow card everytime nowadays it seems.  Seen many a yellow if the guy is away and you run across the back of him accidentally clipping him.  Think his first was a yellow too, but then Crouch should have had one soon after.  Lack of consistency key as always.

 

Think the red card did Spurs no favours at all.  Manchester United settled for a point after it and soaked up pretty much anything with ease.  I thought Spurs played well, but Crouch was no use and should have been off at HT.  If Bale had had his crossing boots on, could have been different too.  The wait goes on...

Poor performance but extremely unlucky with the sending off I think, but if you give Mike Dean an ounce he'll take a pound.

 

Vidic and Modric were absolutely superb.

 

Don't agree, I thought it was a good game which lacked a bit of goal mouth action at times. An early goal would have possibly sparked more of the same but some cracking play in the middle of the park and the defences were outstanding.  Spurs were the better side on the day, United again have Vidic to thank for a point in my opinion.

 

Whilst there were a few moments of nice interplay all they were few and far between.  Couldnt believe how little bale charged at rafael after his initial booking.  All in i thought it a pretty drab match

Bale, generally, doesn't do it against United.  They tend to show him inside a lot which is not what he wants to do.

Crouch is a pretty poor player too much of the time. He has his moments where he looks like a cracking player but they're few and far between.

Aye crouch is piss poor, lee miller turns up more than he does!  There was a couple of times that bale had rafael for pace in the first half and when he got booked I thought it was gonna get a bit tasty between them but he did absolutely hee haw in the second half.

LOL, I love being wrong!! The hivs defence is absolutely appalling!!

 

Christ, he could have played keepy-up, sat on the ball, had a cigar, then a cup of tea, and still had time before a tackle came in.

 

Nae messing fae the Ayr fans, "You're shit and you know you are!"
