That must be fastest post match review ever from sky..

Would not be surprised if the Liverpool v Utd game is a dull 0-0! More often than not they aren’t classics that live up to the hype

Quite comfortable but how many times does an opposition player get between two defenders in our box, this has to stop. Was impressed with Rodon although the oppo wasn’t much. Good win and that will do.

As an 8 as well. Less pressing, but more spacial awareness and therefore more ground covered laterally and with communication with others. Wonder goal too, creativity to the max, and he’s now irreplaceable imo.
Also opened up space for Bergwijn in the middle, two of them linked up well couple of times.

Three points and two goals from players other than Kane & Son, including a worldy from Ndombele. An all round impressive performance. I like the way we set up today, not sure whether Mourinho will keep it for Liverpool though.

So are some of you going to give credit for setting up correctly and playing with positive intent for the majority of the game, or is it the "Sheffield are shit, should of been 8-0" line you idiots are going to go with?
I'm sure plenty will focus on the two-minute spell that resulted in conceding a goal...while overlooking that we had been pushing for a third goal and should have been awarded a penalty moments before.

A lacklustre game despite the win. 3 positives in the way Rodon, Reguillon and NDom played. The goal was lost exactly like the one lost to Fulham. Dier having no idea where the ball was. He just jumped and the ball was behind him.

Very good win. I'm going to be very picky and say that I thought Højbjerg didn't have a great game. He gave the ball away a few times and seemed to play with his head down, failing to see good runs from Kane and Son.

He's been our signing of the season, so can't be too critical, but today I thought he was off his usual high standards.

I think that Jose's intention is to maximise those two or three chances per game so I wouldn't be surprised if he's pleased overall with today (apart from conceding).

Judging by how we played this season, it's definitely his intention.

Good. Two big plusses there for me. A goal from a corner, and a goal where neither Kane/Son were involved; that's going to become more and more important. And what a finish!

Some other stuff that worries me, but not tonight. COYS!

I’m not sure I’ve ever heard Roy Keane describe any player as “world class” before today!!

Harry Kane, please step forward.
