Great 3 points to get. Why can't they play like that every game?

Fully deserved that victory, Spurs were poxed to find themselves level at half time. The not so special one sent back to London pointless. McTominay makes a massive difference to the team. A very frustrating group of Uniteds players who can raise their game against the better sides and lose or draw against mediocre teams.

Mourinho doesn't have a great record at Old Trafford.  ;D

Yeah, you'd wonder.

Very good tempo all night, never let Spurs settle. Rashford was outstanding, off the left is the only place for him.
Doc would listen to any kind of nonsense and change it for you to a kind of wisdom.

Hopefully they keep her lit for City at the weekend!

They'd need to beat Leicester to help Liverpool to their first championship in 30 years as City won't be there

As a non united fan this is everything that's wrong with united. Rashford clearly had a point to prove to Jose and he'll think he's made it tonite. They'll revert to type and spurs will finish ahead of them

One win won't make Utd a better team, Spurs played in the Champions league final and have been top four for many seasons. Why beating Spurs tonight would anyone think they will automatically get better? Utd have been mediocre, that's why they are in that current position. Reverting to type will be at the weekend and most away games! ( bar Liverpool)

The players obviously busted their eye strings to beat Jose which tells you they are a bunch of overpaid coasters

Rashford has been in good form in recent weeks. Wouldn't have a lot to prove as he was one of the players that Jose regularly praised. The opposite to be said about Martial, Pogba or Shaw.

What's the word on Pogba? Is he actually injured or just waiting till the January transfer window?

A little bit of both.

Rashford's tweet after the game would suggest otherwise. He certainly didn't improve under that regime. He was brilliant last night but he needs to develop and take more of the opportunities he creates. He easily could have had 4/5/6 goals last night. I think there's still further improvement in him. Agree with earlier poster who said he's best on the left. I wanted to see him get a good run through the middle, which he did, and it proved to me anyway that he's better in the wide position. Martial is better through the middle. Ideally these lads would have older, experienced winners guiding them through their early year but they've had to be the leaders from nearly day 1. That's (partially) why you get inconsistency. Why they don't try to play at this tempo all the time confuses me though.....as Waddle said last night it's when they're at their best.

The other gobshite then had to stand in the middle of the pitch shaking hands and hugging all the United players. I hope his own players and supporters enjoyed that.  ::)

They were ok in the first half. In the second, bar the peno and Rashford's occasional incursions, they were as ordinary as Spurs, (who had more possession). If that's one of Utd's better performances of the season then it's no wonder why they've languished for so long this season.
