You just know if it was the other way around no one would have mentioned it.What did you expect? Just look at the half time punditry on BT SPORTS they couldn't wait to discredit Eriksen's goal because Kane's big toe was in the Utd half a millisecond before the ball was kicked!
As well as the best centre forward in world football, Tottenham possess one other trump card: at peak performance, only Manchester City have a higher ceiling. The home games against City and Chelsea last season and the home victories over Liverpool, Real Madrid and United this campaign showed as much. There are games when everything clicks and opposition teams cannot touch them. There are valid arguments about Tottenham’s consistency and stomach for the fight in April and May, but that doesn’t change the fact that, on their day, this team can teach anyone a lesson.
Bale couldn't win a free towards the end of his time here, hope Alli doesn't end up like that, cuz it was BS Bale getting the shit kicked outta him and it not being called up.Maybe Delles reputation .....
Maybe because only Sanchez was up for it. If I were him, I'd be thinking the old Polish saying: I've swapped an axe for a stick.Man Utd starting front 4 last night. Lukaku, Sanchez, Lindegard and Martial.
Now, that's some pace right there. Meant for absolutely feck all.
Pace will give you options which is all good, but it will not be the answer alone.
Shout out to Eric dier as well. He abused and hounded anybody who came within 5 metres of him
Didnt even know Matic was on the pitchJose underestimated us and had a touch of arrogance in his team selection - to only have Pogba and Matic in midfield was suicide but he honestly thought they were good enough to match Dier and Dembele who absolutely bullied them off the park all game.
He gave a freekick to Utd a few minutes later for the same type of challenge from one of our players (can't remember who think it was Dier). Very weak ref, usually is poor when he refs us.Just watching match again, at the pen now, shocking call from Mariner, through player 1st to get ball, pen every day of the week, that happened other side no doubt he would have blew.

Clean sheets for 6 days and on the 7th day they shit the bed.United hadn't conceded a goal in any of their previous 6.
Clean sheets since Boxing Day. 4 PL 2 FAC

This is what Eric Dier does well when he is at his best. He dominated those around him, forcing them to move the ball quickly and make a mistake as if they held onto it for too long he was going to clatter them.
Really controlled aggression too, you can't play against it as he is never at risk of getting sent off so you know that every time you get the ball you are in for it. Must be pretty intimidating.
