A lot of Spurs fans angry today at teddy sherringham touting Kane for a move to Man U.

Understanding hitting back with why would he join a poorer quality side unlikely to be in the champions league etc, the 90s long gone when United would pick off Spurs best players .

Agree with that Spurs have better players in every position than united apart from goalkeeper maybe

I think Martial is an outstanding prospect; probably being asked to do too much this season, because of injuries etc

Spurs give me the impression they are going to be in the mix at the top of the premier league for a good few years.
I think next season both Spurs and Liverpool will finish above Man City, Chelsea, Man Utd, Arsenal and...................Leicester.

Don't think Liverpool will be anywhere near the top 4 they won't be able to get the real top players signing for them.

I like the idea of new teams being added to the list of Premier League winners. That;s why I say I wouldn't mind if Spurs pip Leicester to the title this year, but actually I think I'd be gutted if Leicester don't win it from here. I'm a neutral supporter with a soft spot for the underdogs and Leicester are much more of an underdog than Spurs.

Klopp, is going to have to do a lot of work in the transfer market in my view. Liverpool's squad is one of the weakest I can recall for them. Aside from Sturridge and possibly Coutinho, I'm not sure they have a single player on their books that would be of interest to any of the top teams in the premier league.

Lucky escape and Pochettino is one to hold on to.
Yes, very much so. If we can hold on to him at least until the new stadium, we could really start to go places.

I rate Emre Can and (to a lesser extent) Sakho and Clyne and would take them if I was the boss of a top club and they were available.

(While waiting for a goal or two, desperately needed, to liven up Spurs v United)

I see those players as mid-table premier league, nothing special and not better than those already on the books at Arsenal, City, Chelsea, United, Spurs ...

Typical piece of magic from Martial, but for once not the finish it deserved

Not a great game this man united organisation against the bigger teams has been good this season and they have got a few results as they haven't had to dictate these game.

But when they have to attack games against smaller sides they lack real quality of years gone by to break a lot of these type,of sides down

This is the worst United team I've seen since the 80's, I can't believe they've spent so much assembling it.

Disagree, United have some awful players, City do too.

Great ball in from Lamela, all Alderweireld had to do was make a simple run to meet it.

Spurs in cruise control now.

Dele Alli looks the real deal, we have had plenty of "Wonderkids" in the past but they have always been flawed in one way or another,, this lad seems really composed on and off the pitch, he comes across as a really nice lad with his head on his shoulders, lets hope fame and money in the future doesnt ruin him

Good grief, you could drive a bus through the gaps in the Man Utd defence.

For all the LVG methods, this Spurs team looks fitter and stronger than United
