Well done Spurs fans.

Cant argue. You deserved bit luck against us for change.

davycc

great win for the Spurs!! nail-biting stuff but delighted

Well done Spurs, great performance.

Utd's defence needs serious work

Mikeyt086

Can't believe Van Persie's chance was the last one. A terrible miss on reflection.

Ah well. Game was supposed to be over at half time. Hopefully we will learn a less from that first half and play more like we did in the 2nd for the next few games.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSss!

Well done agent AVB

A victory for football, justice for John Terry and wonderful, wonderful day!

Great entertainment that!

So it's time to play some Jive Bunny

Hopefully, this will signal the end of Giggs starting and De Gea will be put back in goal. Oh, and even though he scored, Nani needs to be ****ed out of it

Nani actually has no brain.

I've said it so many times, the guy has ability but is completly clueless. Makes wrong decisions so many times, and he's not improving in that regard. He's a FIFA Street footballer.

everdead.ie

Wow so that's what it's like to win at Old Trafford!

In fairness United should of had a peno but just a great performance from the team dissapointing to have to dig in so much second half but great win great game!

ahnowbrowncow

Starting giggs was a big mistake, Utd were a different team when rooney came on

Will I Amnt

F**king hell, what a game.
Why does it take for us to get in a mess to start playing well?
That second half was the best we have been in a long time.
Really thought we would get the equaliser.

Deserved win for Spurs. Dominated the first half and defended well for the majority of the second half. Fair play.

Quandary

Great game, well played Spurs, they did what they had to do.

The blame for the loss lies squarely at Fergie's feet for fielding such a poorly picked first 11.

Hopefully this loss will teach him not to start Giggs anymore.

Scholes was incredible in the 2nd half. I can't ever remember seeing him look as tired as he did in the last 10 mins of this game though!

This is disgraceful stuff from Spurs. Parking the bus is not working for them. On another day, United get a goal from one of the plethora of chances - chance that were missed, not prevented - and they are left reeling.

Disgraceful my hole. We scored 3 goals ffs. Yeah, we were kept in our end for the last 30 minutes, but it's Utd at home, and they we constantly pressing.

Either way, fair play to Utd for making it bloody difficult. Really entertaining, but i need a lie down now

WEll done Spurs, won the game in the first 30 minutes.

Some serious positive to take frmo our part, the tempo we played that second half was absolutely breath taking. Hopefully we can have more of that, but definitly a disappointing loss

wnolan1992

Spurs well deserved winners.

United didn't deserve anything from that game IMO. Second half was positive, but at the same time we shouldn't have to go two goals down at OT to start f*cking playing football!

gandalf

I feel dirty I was cheering for Spurs! How united didn't win that is beyond me. Great match to watch for a non supporter of either team

PhlegmyMoses

Spurs are incredibly lucky here. AVB did not announce his arrival, as the commentator said, United should have scored at least one in the last 30 mins. Gifted the opening half by an awful team choice from Fergie.

Fergie deserves the defeat, though. Ridiculous team to start. Giggs may need to pull a Neville at this stage and take himself out of the equation. He is offering nothing other than giving Fergie hope that he can still play at the highest level.

At least the 2nd half performance was somewhat a positive to take from the game.

I kinda get what you mean but did you see that third goal conceded.

It's fair to say Utd were shambolic defensively and I'm not just talking about the defence.

Also think it was a mistake to take Kagawa off. I would have taken RVP off. Kagawa was exactly what was needed to try and pick the lock of the Spurs defence.

Fergie ****ed up with the team picked but even with the starting eleven some of those players need to take a serious look at themselves. Shockingly lacklustre.

A defeat was coming no doubt. I'm wondering is there some complacency in the squad? The lack of energy and application so far this season has been awful.

Ye deserved the win, no question. Nice to see supporters from London teams here and not trolling everyone when there is a bad result for United (or other teams).

Thats one of the longest records broken - last spurs victory was 23 years ago

Thanks Fergie!

Justice for John Terry?

WTF you on about?

You've gotta love football

Ashbourne hoop

Only caught the last 15 mins so can't really comment on the game. DeGea should be in goal imo, he's a much better keeper than Lindegard. While Lindegard is decent and makes good saves, DeGea makes unbelievable world class saves.

flyswatter

Just about held on to that lead, United were great in the second half but good resilience shown.

On another note, Giggs looks near enough finished judging by today.

Of course it's disgraceful. They were incredibly lucky not to concede any of those chances. Parking the bus does not work, at all. The amount of times a Spurs player had a chance to take the ball forwards and relieve pressure and none of them took responsibility.

I'm not trying to rain on your parade here. I just dislike seeing teams parking the bus because it achieves nothing. Luck and poor finishing kept Spurs in the game this evening, not that second half performance.

BorneTobyWilde

Man united defense looks very weak when its attacked,
leaking alot of goals,

Turtyturd

Shocked that Spurs managed to hang on, normally collapse against United in the 2nd half.

Happy for AVB, hopefully he gets a decent chance away from that shambles of a club.

Prick!

As a Utd fan if Spurs didn't park the bus I'd be happy, there'd be more space to exploit. In saying that, Spurs did the right thing.

Just put him on ignore and don't quote him. Easy. When Chelsea are losing, remove the ignore and have a great laugh as he completely loses the plot, blames everyone bar his team, accuses the ref of all sorts.

Maybe, just maybe, Fergie should keep his big mouth shut before offering an opinion on other teams players, especially when he has the biggest wife shagger of all on his own team

crazy-ass game of football, my ashtray is overflowing.

SAF needs to cop-on with the team selections. Encouraging second half in some ways, but there's no balance or direction in the team.

It's more a reflection on the midfield tbh.
Add to that our injury crisis in defence and it's not really fair to blame it on the defenders.

The thing is, they were playing perfectly well until they dropped deeper and deeper. When I made the comment that was quoted, there was still 10 mins of the game left and I believed United would score. So it's not like I was bitter about their solid defending. I just thought it was idiotic in the extreme.

I could actually BE 50 you know, or I could have just lied!

Anyway delighted to wind up Utd fans who are\were so quick to slag off Terry whenever the chance presents itself. Of course nothing to do with them at all

Top of the League to ya!
