The veteran tactician has come out and said that the match against Harry Redknapp’s Tottenham is an important one as United’s next big game after that will be the title decider against Manchester City at the Etihad stadium...
Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429
as they failed to capitalize on their two goal advantage in the first half.
They allowed Gunners to come back into the match and eventually lost by a score line of 5-1. Redknapp’s team are finding it difficult to perform against the bigger teams in the league, something that might give heart to United
considering that they are above Tottenham in the present league standings.
United themselves made hard work of Norwich City in their last league match as they required a last minute goal from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ryan-Giggs-c31985 to secure all three points. With a few games left in the season, there is little margin for error for
both the teams which means that the tie at White Hart Lane will be a mouth-watering one due to the nerves and the tension involved.
Sir Alex said in his interview, "It's going to be a massive game [at Spurs. If we can survive that one, then we'll have a big chance of winning the league. I would take it [being two points behind City going into the game at the
Etihad Stadium]. I would rather go there on level points. But if we could go there within striking distance of being top of the league, I'd take it."
He added, "I should have more players available than I've had in the last few weeks because we've had a terrible spell of injuries. But we've done the right thing in the treatment of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Phil-Jones-c29903; we've given them
a break.”
Manchester United will hope that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Rooney-c36736 returns to action for them against Tottenham as they looked jaded without him in their last league match. The Englishman was out of action for United due to a throat and a flu infection.
