The tie of the FA Cup semi-final is Tottenham taking on Manchester United and with our current form and record, we should be the favourites for the clash. Tottenham have made it to the semifinals for the second straight season but we last lifted the cup in 1991 and have had a terrible time when playing in semis in recent years.
Facing United won’t be as daunting as it has been in recent years and with Jose Mourinho seemingly hitting the self-destruct button, United will struggle to find the goals to defeat us.
Mauricio Pochettino does need a trophy to make this season somewhat successful and hopefully, our performance will lead us not only to the FA Cup but also to a top-four spot come the end of the season.
Twitter was ablaze with reactions to the draw and here are some of the best ones.
Spurs ten unbeaten away from home so if any team ain’t happy about playing us at Wembley in the fa cup then we’r happy to go to your ground or a neutral one & spank u there #COYS

End of the day for Spurs to get any credit from media for winning FA Cup, we would have to beat Man Utd/Chelsea.
Would be nice one and for all to get over the line by beating both and silencing critics who doubt Poch’s ability and our squad’s mentality in big games.#THFC #COYS
