We all see the game differently which is what makes it a great talking point but despite 30mins of dominance you couldn’t have argued  if HT it was 2-2. Mainoo’s introduction swung the game completely with them having the best of the last 15 and large parts of the second half.

 

First half xG was 0.27-1.92, IMO 2-2 would have been incredibly harsh. Also believe we could have created something in the second half too if it was needed.

You say tons. I say we missed only 2 so that’s only 4 chances all game. Man Utd had as many but didn’t take them.

 

Yes we dominated them in midfield for 30mins but didn’t cut them up as it’s been perceived.

 

Houjland (spelling) Casimero 1st half. Maguire post and Leno free header 2nd. 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4 big chances is a lot though, we had more opportunities aswell. Our xg was 2.26, and that's pretty high, but ofcourse we didn't underperform it that much.

 

Scoring 2 was fine, but if we miss those 2 chances in another game it's going to be crucial. And Arsenal fan of messaged me and just said "Isak and Tonali should have scored" when giving his opinion on the game. That was his main takeaway. If Man Utd had come back somehow, we'd be looking back at those chances.

Harsh but could’ve happened as their chances were big ones just before the break. Fell we lost our way after Tonali miss a bit. Possibly though I thought we tired last 30mins. One thing Spurs have over us today apart from home advantage is fresher legs you’d think.

I wasn't expecting to see Botman starting. It doesn't show much faith in Kelly. However, I'm sure Eddie will have weighed it all carefully.

 

Kiss of death time - Spurs have a good attack but a weak defence so I'm expecting a high-scoring game, with us coming out on top.
