Manchester United V Spurs Sunday 15th 4pm

Whatsisname

Mata doing a good defensive shift, fair play to him.

Great performance. But there's something missing from the match thread thread today. I just can't pool my finger on it. But I won't complain. Liver and let live as they say.

After number 4, bring on Falcao.

Must stop watching the history channel and get back to the match.....

That Rooney run behind the defense to reach pass from Young, RVP and Falcao can never make those runs, they will but lose out to CB in the race. Rooney is stretching the game very well and Young is playing well from wide positions.

That first half was absolutely fantastic. Spurs literally have not had a sniff.

Yes they are playing bad but to deliberately call them small and irrelevant club ect to try get a reaction is pathetic mate.

Why are you making things up now? When did I call them "small and irrelevant club"?

Your hyperbolic statements and false accusations are pathetic.

RobertKK

If Jones had scored that goal, it could all have been different, thankfully De Gea is world class and Phil Jones is not a world class striker.

Best 45 minutes in the post-Ferguson era?

#HyperboleOrNot

Spurs taking a nice beating

Johner

Great performance by United, Spurs have been horrific as well.

Oh I'm really sorry mate I got u mixed up with that other guy I'm actually sorry it wasn't you at all sorry again

Rooney playing up front is the only position for him.
great 1st half, about feckin time

Of course it's all going to be down to just how brutal Spurs were today, nothing to do with United actually being really fúcking good.

We've taken it for the most part of the season about dull, unimpressive football, and rightfully so, but today's performance is a thing of beauty.

Spurs are shít because we aren't letting them get a moment on the ball. The work-rate from our players today is near the max, great to see it, and finally some penetration in and around the box (wahey!)

This is an example of where I want to see this team go. Love Herrera, love Mata, love Fellaini, love Rooney. Smalling is quite impressive but could get caught out running out from the back. Would give at least €200 cash to know exactly what DDG was thinking in the 5 seconds immediately following Jone's shot on goal.

Whatever about my above post about best performance post-Ferguson, it's definitely in there for the best this season. A bit alarming that Di Maria is nowhere near the 11.

is Di Maria on the bench?

He's suspended from the Arsenal game.

Are people forgetting that Spurs are unbeaten in last 5 V United, and won the last 2 at OT? But of course people moaning Spurs being Spurs...

Laughable.

Its both tbh. Spurs have been dire but most weekends this season united wouldn't have put them to the sword like this. Great win for utd today. No chance spurs can get anything back into it.

You've made it sound as if the celebration was a tactic!

I don't get the surprise with this result
No team has won more home games than United

Stumbled upon by LVG, hand forced by DiMaria suspension.

Daley blind on the left, Carrick in the centre. Great stuff
And matas ball retention is excellent
These three changes have made a massive difference today

Just look at Utd's recent record v Spurs to see the first reason why people are surprised with 3-0 so far. The 2nd example is look at how Utd have been playing against weaker league opposition for the last 2 months.

Less the result, more the performance

Blind looks much better at left back then Shaw

100% that's why mata needs to start.
Proof that he isn't a "luxury" player.

Adamocovic

Herrera has been brilliant defending and in possession!

Kerrydude1981

Mata and Herrera have played some nice stuff today.

So does di Maria start v Liverpool next week?

TheFullDuck

we are cruising but it's still heart in mouth stuff when Jones has the ball

Absolutely not, too important a match for a player so woefully out of sorts. Assuming Liverpool win tomorrow I'd imagine the winner will grab the last CL place.

Now Falcao come on and pop in a goal and the day has been perfect!

ScummyMan

I'd give my left bollock to see Falcao grab a goal

The under 21s on now for some experience

Rafael lives!

Has Falcao had a touch?
