I have to shamefacedly say i would have taken LVG, De Boer or Koeman, in that order, before Poch at the time.The results definitely went in our favour this weekend. Still don't think I've seen one game United have played this season when they truly deserved to pick up 3 points. The pressure will really be on them to turn it around now and the Glazers must surely be considering LVG's replacement right now. And to think I was hugely disappointed that we brought in Poch as I really wanted LVG.

Whilst we would obviously have still lost, I doubt we'd have got murdered had the ref not decided that jumping was illegal.I just meant we'll get murdered the first time we face one of the big 3. Like when we drew Madrid last time, and like happens to all the English sides in the competition.

Let's not entertain this title challenge until we are 3 points clear at the top on the last day of the season and winning 5-0 in stoppage time please.
And had Lennon been fit to start. Plus when we had the home leg, the referee seemed to be allergic to awarding a penalty and Gomes blundered again.
Couldnt get a ticket for that home leg at first, but after the defeat in the 1st leg a lot of tickets strangely became available. I snapped up 2 right off, firstly..Real Madrid at the Lane???/ No brainer not to be there, but secondly, with that team we had I truly believed we had a chance of turning it around. An early goal and who knows.
And as you rightly say, how we didnt get one early doors, twice Bale got fouled in the box IIRC. Obviously once we had the Gomes mistake the dream was over and I just enjoyed the fact Tottenham Hotspur had played Real Madrid in the QF of the Champions League.
That sounded like me at The Reebok a few years back. We had that run where we had never won a league match there. Then finally and ironically on our last visit there we were 4-1 up, but even at that score with 10 minutes I couldnt enjoy the moment until we were in stoppage time.
Same this season with this Chelsea situation, yes I know its 14pts with 15 to go, but I wont count my chickens unless it is 15 with 5 to go. It comes with the territory I suppose, but I must admit it this last week, and this weekend in particular, I am starting to get a little bit excited...is that wrong?
