already fallen by the wayside from the third round.

been knocked out by Premier League clubs on 16 occasions (that includes

times, Spurs eight.

* Won the last four with an aggregate of 11-0; and the last 11 at Old
Trafford (all comps), since the 0-2 reverse to Coventry in the third
round of the Carling Cup on 26 September. Not lost nor conceded one
goal in 2008, since West Ham prevailed 2-1 at Upton Park in the Premier
League on 29 December.

last four and are unbeaten in 13 (won 11, drawn two - all Premier League).
* Spurs' last victory was 3-1 at White Hart Lane on 19 May 2001. The
