Spurs have played within themselves. It's quite funny to watch the truthfulness of the 'lads, it's Tottenham' mantra play out in front of our eyes again.

We need a second. I would be betting that Spurs will score.
If we dont get a second, 1-1 would be a good bet.
What? He hasn't put a foot wrong the whole game.
Do we ever kill games off though? I just expect the worst nowedays.
Sums it up for me. Maybe a bit of jet lag, but what a goal. Spurs are a bit meh as well, maybe underestimating us.
Not knee jerk at allCarrick is so composed and reminds me of a bit of Scholes still. What are we going to do when he retires really? Neither Pogba or Herrera is as good as him.
Martial looks clearly out of form but is trying his best.
Pogba is good attacking wise but defensively the guy is lost.
Mkhi has been a beast today.
For Mourinho, Our defense still looks suspect. None of our back 4 is really good enough. and I really hope he doesn't bring Fellaini on in the Second half to defend our lead.Need that second goal ASAP.
The game, hunt for top 4 and rest of season really are all finely balanced.
Could be but I think Rooney will be on for him after around 65-70.We batter Spurs today and get the 3 points,I feel we might actually turn a corner.
Great game so far.
Pogba, really?Everyone hailing Rojo today, but the minute he makes one wrong foot he is back to utter dross
I missed our entire first half. How have we been? How's Pogba, Martial etc?We'll get tired soon enough, we'll never win this comfortably. Not that that's a big claim, to be honest.We need to go after a second goal. Would like to see mata get at least 30 mins, for martial.I liked what we showed the minutes before and after the Goal. The last 10 minutes we have been too defensive again. We really Need to get a second.
Mkhi fantastic. Pogba very good as well. Martial is fighting but still lacking form.
He's played really well this season for sure, and he's played well today too. However, he's made some bad decisions, maybe I was overreacting from seeing him where Darmian should have been.
They are different positions. If you asked Pogba to do what Carrick does it'd take most of his game away.
Just you.
Mou will never bring on Mata unless we need a goal to win.
Yeah it's baffling, pace seems to be the answer to everything.
cheers, I'll rewatch later then
Yep, I think this is Pogbas best game yet with us.So glad to reach the half time break still one up. Tricky game as we knew it would be. No way were we going to be able to control and dominate Spurs but at least we are again making the better chances and restricting their chances. We know Darmian is a weak spot, and they know it too, nothing new there. Every time I think Martial is back, he takes one step back again.
Herrera and Mhki have been really great.
I mentioned it first!Not the best performance so far from United, but getting the result. Why can't we have both?Fellaini to equalise. We just can't finish the game off, can't we? we play some lovely stuff, but just can't punish TottenhamMatch day thread is such a miserable place.
It's been a great match so far.The dreaded Mourinho half time team talk. Hopefully his cowardice doesn't rub off on the team for once.
He's finding it difficult because as soon as he receives it Spurs are doubling up on him. The fact that Darmian is not overlapping or making any attacking runs makes this problem even worse.
Not for me. Too many times over the years we have been burnt by false hopes.
If we beat someone like stoke away or west brom away it would signal that we might be turning the corner. We are always fine at home (other than the citeh mishap) and have been unlucky in many many matches.
Today would be a good start though.Martial should be loaned out to the Championship or something - awful player for 6 months.Great game, Id leave the team as is and bring Rooney on for Martial around 60.Very good from us so far. We played in Ukraine 60 hours ago remember.Carragher talking sense about Mkhi/Jose
He's been pretty good, but he dithered in the box and played a poor ball out midway through the half.
This. Walker's pace is making Martial think too much. No, Rashford isn't much faster than Martial, but he's fresh.
Martial is overthinking because of Walker.
I saw that, no nonsense transition football.Oh my god, someone take my temperature, I don't think I'm very well...I just agreed with something Jamie Carragher has said.
He mentioned that possibly Mkhitaryan has been managed well, and that Jose deserves a bit of credit for bringing out his form.
I think you need to stop smoking weed or whatever.
I know right, I feel a bit sick sitting here agreeing with every word he just said.- Status
