It ain't over till the fat lady sings!
What a match! For those of you who missed the
Carling Cup final between
Manutd & Spurs, well, SCREW YOU. I had to follow the match via live text and believe you me, it was effing awesome.
In his pre-match press conference, Fergie said he was already preparing for the Newcastle match on Wednesday. Arrogant, cocky, over confident? Hell no!
2 words - MIND GAMES
Fergie got it right again. He undermined the competition and played it down in his priorities. Deep down inside, he knew that it would be downright retarded to let go of a possible quadruple.
The match was tough on Spurs after a game in which both sides were equally matched, denying them a repeat of last year's triumph - but it is a real glory day for United keeper Ben Foster, who will have impressed watching England coach Fabio Capello. United have the Carling Cup in the bag - and can now turn their attentions to the
Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League after an almost perfect weekend.
Manchester United's win opens up another spot in the Uefa Cup for a Premier League side. Losing Carling Cup finalists don't qualify - which will please Harry Redknapp, who isn't such a fan anyway. Good news for the likes of Everton and Arsenal.
Elsewhere, in the Premier League, Liverpool, Arsenal & Villa all dropped points. After all, nobody expected the Liverpudlians to pose any threat to United. Arsenal, well the less said the better. Villa were undone by 2 late goals from Stoke and Chelsea scraped a 2-1 win
.
It is United's title to lose now and the rest of the season is poised to be a thriller!
GLORY GLORY MANUTDAnswers to quiz 6:- Sir Alex Ferguson
- Eric Cantona

- Harry Redknapp

I want the best boy in their town.”2) "When the seagulls follow the trawler, it's because they think sardines will be thrown in to the sea"3) "Sometimes you have beautiful melons but they don’t taste very good and some other melons are a bit ugly and when you open them up, the taste is fantastic."4) "I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars. The rest I just squandered."5) "Samassi Abou don't speak the English too good."ANSWER to QUIZ 5:
