Sandro really took control of seeing out that last 10 minutes. Tino MOTM though. Shaky start but defensively exceptional today.

I'd say botman considering him just coming back and pocketing Solanke.

McMoist giving the MoTM to the Spurs keeper the absolute wet wipe. Tino all day.

 

Imagine the keeper recieving it at the end of the game. Nice for the kid but kind of patronising if anything.

That second half wasn't pretty, but it was really resilient, strong and fighting performance, and ultimately Dubs didn't have too many saves to make. We now have so many facets to our game, we can play some lovely passing football to dominate possession, we can go direct and spring the counter, or we can sit in deep and soak up pressure. Its great to see.

Why didn’t Longstaff pass to Barnes ffs

 

Was in such a good position for his specialty shot man.

 

The rage that brought out of me. Goes for the more difficult pass and gives it away.

 

My God.

I hate how this team makes us suffer through matches like this man [emoji38]

 

Was all about the result though. Did well to grind out the win. Spurs were good second half. Really tough for them.

 

Thought Willock did great coming in upfront and pressing as Isak had completely stopped doing so.

 

That pass Longstaff gave away that led to that break for them man. Thought they were going to score from that.

 

Absolutely massive result to get all 3 points today. Can just kick back now and enjoy the weekend.

 

Get in!

 

Agreed. Was a little nervy but the result is huge. Sets up Wolves and Bournemouth at home perfectly.

Collected a few balls in the air that were right at him.

You’re not worthy of MOTM if all you do is succeed in not conforming to fears that you’ll single handedly lose the match.

Botman would be bottom of the list of players I'd give MOTM today in all honesty. Very poor first 15 minutes and then did OK for the rest of the game. I really don't think he should have played today.

Pretty poor performance bar half an hour in the first half. But it keeps the run going and if someone suggested back to back wins at Old Trafford and Spurs, only 3-4 weeks ago you would have thought it unlikely. 
 


 

 

 

Yeah fantastic results. :thup: Right in the mix.

 

Thought we could have managed the game/fitness a bit better, and weren't as ruthless as in recent weeks - but can't argue with 6 points on the road against clubs who you would have thought will figure things out to some degree or other by May.

I thought we were immense. Not our best, but stood strong. Nervy, horrible watch but deserved win 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻


Nah. Too passive and basically abandoned any sort of control of midfield and counters were shit. Always wanted too long on the ball. Then the final decision was lacking, again. Which has been a gripe of mine for a while. 
 

Some of that is down to them of course. But we often seem to struggle to regain any momentum when the opposition take charge a bit more. Subs always late and don’t always positively impact the game. Barnes looked lively and Willock gave us legs today, at least.
 

It’s a great result and good that we can win ugly again. Not a walkover like the last 4-5 games. 
 

Not being a moaning cunt for the sake of it :lol: I still enjoyed it and they showed character to defend like they did that half.
