Outstanding from De Gea - how many saves with his feet ?! Also some poor finishing from Spurs when you compare to the way Rashford finished

Kane limping - not good for them , are they now just fighting for a top 4 spot ?

City vs Utd is going to be interesting-

Bad mistake from Trippier that led to goal not much between the teams first half ,Spurs the better team in second half and deserved at least a draw we created a lot of good chances and if it wasn't for De Gea we would have won.

Agree with the poor finishing , if you can save it with your feet it’s to close to you.
Thought united got it spot on tactics wise . Think they caught Spurs out a bit playing so open early on.
Great finish from Rashford top strikers take the one chance they may get.
Result for us and City. Good game though.
Can’t belive I am saying this but thought Mike Dean had a good game!

Better say well done to Utd , what a difference the new manager has made.

One good thing to come out of the result is that Ole should get the job permanently and we keep Poch.

De Gea is like bloody Pat Jennings

I haven't seen the game, have only loosely followed the updates on BBC Sport website. Numerous times they used the "Great Save" graphic for De Gea. Were any of the saves he made world class or were they fairly routine saves that you would expect a PL goalkeeper to make?

There were a few real good ones. Generally they fall into the category of "you'd want a top keeper to save them". That said, he made 11 of them lol

This is Owens take on Spurs finishing

That’s exactly why the phrase ‘just hit the target’ is bollocks. It’s The @premierleague, you need to be brave enough to miss the target to score goals. Spurs too safe with their finishing. Another world class performance from @D_De Gea

Does he have a point ( not normally from him )

Also where is Dembele? Seems that they missed his physical strength in the middle

Pogba lucky that the ref didn’t see his challenge - should have been a red

You’ve got to say Utd have overall improved massively over the last few weeks and today passed a very tough test.

Over the last few weeks people have been saying we’ve played no-one that we shouldn’t have expected to beat,well we have beaten a team most expected us to lose to.

Still a long way to go,defensively still poor,they had too many chances to say we defended well.

Kane battered Jones but I have been saying for a couple of years now,along with Smalling should never wear the shirt again,Obviously it won’t happen until replacements come in,but it will.

Thought the ref had a very good game.

The ref did see his challenge, he booked him for it.

Dembele's been injured just come back to training, great player but struggles to keep up with playing so many games in P/L
