The magic of the cup at work. Van Gaal put out a strong United side so this was an excellent result - financially important for a club like Cambridge United who now get another money maker at Old Trafford.
After the 3rd round win over Bunley (a repeat of the 1962 final) today we face Leicester City (a repeat of the 1961 final). The "experts" are predicting a draw (with Leicester to win the replay) - lets hope they are wrong.....

Liverpool had some trouble today.
Even worse for Chelsea, Manchester City and Tottenham.

Spurs were totally predictable [8|].
Man City was a major surprise but looks like their arrogant decision to get back from the Middle East 24-hours before the match backfired.
But Chelsea?? At home, 2-0 up.... just unbelievable.

Yes, they scored the expected number of goals: 2... But they swallowed 4!

Who was it that made the pass to Eriksen when he scored his second goal?

I take it you approve a Spurs player. [X(][;)]
That was a very nice pass.
A very nice played and well fought match. [:)]

They played really well - not from a great football perspective - but from a never say die perspective. I suspect had it gone to extra-time we would have folded under the pressure - as usual.

I've noticed that Tottenham has played plenty of games the last two months. Will the schedule be as tight for the next couple of weeks or will the players be able to recuperate before the League Cup Final?

No - it actually starts ramping up as the Europa League returns. Spurs have to play in the EL on the Thursday then the League Cup final on the Sunday...... I think Chelsea play on the Tuesday before.
Spurs have played circa 40 games ths season already.
