Big result for us if Spurs hold on. Solidifies our hold on 15th spot.

Actually feel a little bit for Brighton. From what I have seen from them against us and today, they play really well and end up losing anyway.
Big win for Spurs though.

Not a great performance from us but we got the win which is all that matters. Fantastic to see Bale score.
This ended up being a shitty weak for us. All other rivals won.
Ewwww, Jose has Spurs well ahead of us ffs.
They played well against Chelsea also, but 0 points from them. They just don't have the goalscorers; their general play is really good, though.
They also battered Crystal Palace and still only drew (Palace only had 1 shot to Brighton's 20).
Their fans must be frustrated with this, but if they keep this job I think it'll click for them at one point.
Brighton just lack that go to match winner to step up at key points like we do with Grealish and Palace do with Zaha.
At 1-1 they had the momentum but no Maupay on the pitch who can at least score on occasions. Then they give away cheap goal and it all fizzled out.
They've only won 4 games in about their last 24 matches so simply can't translate enough good performances into 3 points.

Pundits in the Irish studio saying Kane penalty should have been a foul the other way. And the Brighton goal should have been called back. Got to say I agree with both.
Brighton played well and are a decent striker away from being a good team
I think hes doing pretty good, second with the best goal difference in the league.
Potter is a quality coach, he has that team performing well and not seeing the results. Problem is that's not sustainable, if the results dont start to come he will be another casualty of team punching above its weight financially.
Know there are some Utd fans on here who don't like Spurs but gotta respect how they have ground out these last two league wins
I think most of the dislike comes from one certain Spurs poster.
On a different note why did RM sell Reguilon? He looks great every time I have seen him and will only get better. Defensively he has some ways to go but was that the reason they shipped him out? I realise they have Marcelo and Mendy in that spot, but Marcelo is 32 and not getting any younger.
Actually, these games remind me of how much Mourinho has lost his vibe. Although Spurs have won, peak Mourinho would have had his teams a little more dominant in the game, imposing themselves on it.
It's the big games he sat back and countered in.
He's fallen far, far from that winning manager.
We were right not to go for him due to the buyback clause but yeah there is no doubt he has started well
Apparently there is some problem between ZZ and him, he is Real through and through but I don't think Madrid will buy him back with ZZ in charge.
Reguilon looks very talented - he is rapid and has a lovely cross on him. Defensively he is clearly not the finished article but I've been really impressed with him so far and has brought balance to our team as an attacking threat on the left. Whatever is going on between himself and Madrid I hope it continues and we manage to get him on a permanent deal. I'm sure he will go back to Madrid though because he is certainly good enough to be playing there.
I have no problem with us having him on loan - even if it's only for a year he is making a difference to us as a team and that's what we need.
Spurs, Arsenal, City or Liverpool. Much prefer Spurs to win it over any of those sides. Even with Mou in charge.
After Mourinho was sacked here, lot's of his supporters proclaimed 'Mourinho will win a trophy before United win another one'. We don't want that to be proved correct now, especially as Spurs winning their first ever PL
Spurs are not winning the title, and whilst I think their attack is good enough their defence simply is not, having said that they are definitely in the mix for top 4. The attack of Bale Son and Kane has the fire power to get them that CL spot, people acting on here like Bale needs a walker, hip replacement and hearing aid, he is younger than Cavani, Ronaldo, Marcelo, just needs to shake the rust off. Definitely needs to be managed game wise as well, as his injury history suggests. The next few weeks after their next game against West Brom see them play Man City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Palace, Liverpool, Leicester, Wolves. They sit second because they have played Burnley, Brighton, Hammers, us(and we are terrible, we are 15th says it all), Newcastle, Southampton and Everton.After Mourinho was sacked here, lot's of his supporters proclaimed 'Mourinho will win a trophy before United win another one'.

I think Liverpool will get there, even without VVD, City will push them all the way. Still dont see Chelsea, Spurs, or anyone else bridging that gap to Pool and City.
If I am betting, I would bet on Pool keeping the trophy. Spurs don't have the depth and things will start to go down if key players get injured or tired.After Mourinho was sacked here, lot's of his supporters proclaimed 'Mourinho will win a trophy before United win another one'.

Arsenal aren't in any conversation about winning the league, surely. They've basically had a similarly underwhelming start to us, except that they haven't trousered a 6-1, and managed to skimp a win yesterday.
And Tottenham most likely aren't either, as we'll probably see the other side of their tough run of games shortly.
Top bins
When the hell did West Brom sign Ivanovic?
Ola Aina, he was supposed to be a really top prospect in the Chelsea academy. Hope his does well.
That slightly worrying moment when you realise Fulham, who have been utterly woeful this season, are just 3 points behind us in November.
Yeah but some people will still blindly believe that Ole is the right manager
When we drill Istanbul and as good as qualify for the next round on Wednesday, opinion will swing back.
It'll be one of those seasons.
Feck me. The Mou factor has screwed up what should be a safe haven for us. Couldn’t stand the smugness if that twat won the league. Who’s left? Everton? Leicester?!
Not for me because a team who will press us to death is likely to be just around the corner
Yeah looking forward to that and having United fans throw every insult back at you for questioning Ole for the past few months.
Going in circles under Ole and will never be on the right track ever
Doesn't matter what the result is on Wednesday because we are still a complete liability in the leagueYeah looking forward to that and having United fans throw every insult back at you for questioning Ole for the past few months.

Truth is that it will likely be City or Liverpool. The league has settled down a fair bit now.
Fulham are creeping up on us.
They won’t know what hit them, when we meet them and put in 81 crosses.
Leeds should’ve scored. Leicester do score!
The memories of Dan Burn heading away crosses for 90 minutes
How did that happen. 0-1 Leicester.
Now that’s a counter attack
