I have a feeling we can beat you. But I have that feeling most weeks, until I start watching us!

Same here. It's hard to reconcile the Utd performances and results with how good we look on paper and in theory. I look at the opposition and think 'We have better players in almost every position', and then we draw.

That's half the equation right.

You've shaded it to be fair.

Enjoying this so far, good game. 1-0 though, our most dangerous scoreline..

[Alpinestars]

Some dreadful defending.

[ORD]

Can someone teach Pogba to finish? It's getting dull how often he produces very save-able shots.

[Alpinestars]

Have to say Spurs are a bunch of dirty bds.

Getting frustrated by the time wasting.

[franki68]

Or infuriated by the lack of opportunities you have created.

Hope the Armenian has just twisted his ankle and nothing more serious .

[Alpinestars]

Big win.

No. Just plain dirty. As soon as any man got past yours, the first thought is to bring him down. Poor.

[Daz68]

Fantastic result. Looking good as a team now.

Our players got booked for the fouls. They all do it.

Finally the draw streak is broken. Needed that today, however we got it. Thought Harry was immense, Rojo looked pretty good too. Only the second time Spuds haven't scored in the league this season, that's a good result for us. Sod's law there had to be a negative- hopefully Mikhi's injury isn't so bad and the stretcher was precautionary just to immobilise the ankle.

Fellaini got a good reception, I know the history of course but really don't like to hear that at our players during the game .

[ORD]

Fellaini shouldn't play for Utd. I don't mind booing him, to be honest. He's not a Utd player.

Great performance. Should have been 2 or 3, really.

Such a shame about Micky - he looked absolutely World Class. He is what we have been missing.

...as well as a central midfielder



...and a centre back



...and a centre forward



...and a right back.

... but yes, he's brought a little creativity to the table and it's a breath of fresh air.

Disgraceful booing him. Good on Maureen for showing who's boss. He's not a great player but certainly not our worst in a lot of games. Had he come on instead of Rashford and played like Rash, he'd have got slaughtered.

Rashford has struggled of late, very noticeably again today. Looks like he is feeling the pressure now, that youthful naivety seems to have deserted him. Still think he is going on to great things, would probably help if he was played in his natural position.

Two wins on the spin now, and the fixture list for the rest of December doesn't look too bad either. Time for a good run hopefully.

Probably because Rashford is a striker not a winger, he will be world class in a couple of years!

Good game today with loads of positives, Mikhi looks different class and it's good news that it looks like just one game out with his injury. Phil Jones was great today, hopefully he can stay fit and have a good run of games! Jury is still out on Zlatan, no doubt he's still top quality but again today he just lacked that something.
