The So, I guess we'll get to matches in chronological order but shortly after defeat to athletic Belbao in Europe it's it's been a

mixed week hasn't it especially after that fine win at Tottenham at the

weekend. I've had a brilliant week myself and I'm not going to let United

ruin it even though they're trying really hard and I'm not going to let United ruin it even though they're trying really hard.

And I think specifically Fergi is trying really hard to ruin it by not caring about the Europa League,

which in fairness is a perfectly reasonable position to take.

Let's talk Spares and we can get on to have a rant about Bilbara in a bit, but

but Spers you see in many ways they are connected because they're quite similar games and

performances I thought from United at spurs for long periods their home side was on

top more possession way more shots on goal than United more territory than United more Absolutely fantastic three points that that all cliches aside could win united the title that's how important that game was

You said comfortable you said three one you were absolutely right except for the bit where you said comfortable.

Yeah, well that was a bit of bluster, wasn't it?

So it definitely wasn't a comfortable 3-1 win.

If, I mean that sounds ridiculous, doesn't it?

But I mean if you took exactly the same stats and just turn the scores around it would be hard to argue with it.

Yeah, that's absolutely the case.

Brilliant incisive and clinical finishing the real difference in that game.

United's finishing was really excellent and Ashley Young made a huge contribution despite not necessarily playing brilliantly for the 90 minutes.

He didn't have a very good game I thought, yeah, but two absolutely outstanding finishes, one on the

volley and then a curler into the top corner and I knew he's got the talent to do it, but it was a bit frustrating,

he felt very rusty and not quite with it for a long period of that game.

And in fact the whole side did, I mean you talked about clinical finishing.
