Match ****Tottenham Hotspur V Man United Sunday 16th Feb 4:30 pm ****

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Good opening 20mins from us, ironically United should have scored before we actually did.

Since then it’s very much been two bottom half teams trying to find some quality.

We’ve created some good situations but final ball lacking, and most attacks have ended with Son.

Bergvall has been our best player for me, but, I am worried at the ease at which United have picked us apart at times, far too easy.

We look a bit like we once saw a picture of some defending happening but we’ve never actually gone and learnt it ourselves, it’s too chaotic and people just chasing the ball.

Danso I still think looks pretty good.

We need another goal or two, and we should win this because I think we have by far the better team and squad. Whether we do or not is down to us sorting ourselves out for that final bit of quality in the second half.
Hopefully Ange freshens it up pro actively to make sure we stay on top.
 
We need to be 2 up with one minute to go, or 3 up with 5.

We have seen this script too often.

Just do not lose is all I ask.

Right substitutions at the right time, remonstrate, play the referee, do whatever it fcukimg takes.
 
Spence has been very good. Bergval is a much better player when madders plays. Madders easily the best player on the pitch. We have been so much better than them but we do give teams great chances.

Good performance so far and get the second and it’s all over.
Agreed with most of what you've said here...but vehemently disagree with this last part. We need to be 4-5 nil up to end the game.
 
Pleased with Bergvall that half. Passed when he should have, ran with the ball when he needed to and made himself available throughout. Good few tackles put in as well. No Prima Donna about him, or trying too hard for the spectacular. Just solid clever play.


He is clearly a quick learner as in a few of his earlier games in the EL I thought he was trying to do too much when he had the ball
