Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I enjoyed the game today, was a good win. Considering the players must be low on confidence I thought they put in a good show. There are aspects to our game which I like, some I don't.

Player wise was great to have Vicario back, Spence was briliant, Maddison looked creative and I thought Danso played well too.

Tel struggled abit but I think it will take him time. Was nice to have some half decent options from the bench.

Have beat Man Utd three times this season, how many times in the past have we been able to say that?

Nice to win, and always especially nice to beat that lot again. Felt it was deserved, but could have been much more with more incisive finishing. So many of our shots were weakly hit straight at Onana, yet the goal we scored showed what happened even if a shot in the corner doesn’t go in (pushed out instead of caught).

Spence great again, so good to see someone willing to run with the ball at speed forwards

We retained the ball less (43%) after the subs than we did before it (46-64 min 46%) Utd’s XG doubled in the last 30 mins too.

Whatever our problems were, swapping Maddison and Bergval for Sarr and Kulusevski (and bringing Johnson on too) was very much not the answer.

Yeah, clearly not.... doesn't change that we were completely under the cosh
 
Hopefully that was just an off day for Tel.. How did Son manage to stay on the Pitch until the time he was subbed, was embarrassing seeing him amble around and his demeanour. Looks even worse when you are there and see it off camera. Wilson little cameo at the end was impressive, shame he wasn't brought on sooner.

Still, we took the win against a crap UTD side, the press are asking if we turned a corner.. I really hope so, but don't quite see it on that performance.
 
Good to see Victor Wanyama at half time, even better to see his goal against Liverpool over and over. Came to a point when I was asking for him to come on and show our players how to hit a ball hard and accurately. Think only Pedro can strike a ball from distance.
