Good win and performance and fully deserved in my opinion
Mourinho, or any top manager must have laughed at Citys hilarious defending.Great result but we are awful going forward. Our defence is rock-solid but our only attacking tactic appears to be hoofball.
Guardiola must laugh when he watches some of our attempts at combination play.
Do what, completely nullify the attacking threat of one of Englands best teams at present? Or Jose schooling Poch on the tactical side of the game by deploying a long ball system in order to counter Spurs high press stategy?There's only so many times we can do that. If you want to win the PL, it's not going to based off hoof ball. Ridiculous to even use today's goal to justify it.
We've got a really good thing going with Martial and Rashford alternating off the bench. One comes on fresh to terrorise the jaded defenders and this has been the difference in several wins this season.Was my thoughts too. Its uncanny, it's 4 goals in 4 substitute appearances I think they said, and his goals per minute must be crazy. I would like to see him get the consistency over 90minutes but the feeling of him coming on and scoring is hard to match in football.
Not lately though. They negate defending for most parts by keeping the ball and winning it back regularly.Mourinho, or any top manager must have laughed at Citys hilarious defending.
Defending - 10/10
Enjoyment - 0/10
Crowd were chanting Martial name way before that, they wanted him on the pitch but they didnt want Rashford out and he knows that but it seems like in his eyes Rashford and Martial with Lukaku is no go in any situation.He was vindicated though - Martial scored.
He probably doesn’t appreciate the crowd thinking they know better.
The season has only begun, we'll se plenty of it.Not lately though. They negate defending for most parts by keeping the ball and winning it back regularly.
Lads, Its Tottenham![]()
Ive never agreed with that school of thought.If you take your chance and your opponent doesn’t, you deserve to win.
No matter how badly you play.
Ah, I see.Son was knackered. He played the whole game against West Ham. I don't think he could have run any more
Even Madrid couldn't crack them at the Bernabeu.I don’t understand what people were expecting? Spurs have one of the best defensive records in Europe over the last couple of years.
No one is going to pump them by 3 or 4 goals.
Knowing the state of our midfield at the moment, I.e injury state we have to be measured and professional. We cannot play that gung ho nonsense you’re all crying for.
If Fellaini is back next week, I’m confident we can sneak a result at SB.
I have a hard time believing most of these are actually United fans.Jesus Christ, a post match thread and there's a dozen posts about magnificent City... can't believe my eyes.
Everyone we beat is relegation fodder. Didn't you get the memo?Yes who spanked Liverpool 4-1 and it could've been even worse. The same Tottenham who had one chance on goal and put it wide. Great win, fantastic goal from Martial. I would've liked to have seen Mourinho take Herrera off, as he was awful as usual and give Blind or even Mata a chance next to Matic, a bit more creativity in the center of the park. All in all well done, 3 points and up to the next game.
Didn't even start a striker. Pathetic. His win record against the top teams is awful too.Is that acceptable from spurs? Going away to title rivals and only created one decent chance. I expected more from them. Poch should get sacked with that type of safety first mentality.
Have you started watching football yesterday? Mourinho has won leagues playing this way.There's only so many times we can do that. If you want to win the PL, it's not going to based off hoof ball. Ridiculous to even use today's goal to justify it.
I'd have been p'd off.During the week I said I'd be happy with a draw given how Spurs put Liverpool to the sword last week. 3 points keeps up moving forward. Not a hugely entertaining game though.
