Manchester United vs Tottenham, 5 Key Talking Points

#4 Tottenham may not be the Harry Kane team, but they sorely miss their talisman

Mauricio Pochettino looks on as Lukaku gets into another battle with his compatriot Vertonghen

Mauricio Pochettino got furious when told that Pep Guardiola had casually referred to his team as "the Harry Kane team", remarking in return that he'd never ever called Guardiola's Barcelona team "the Lionel Messi team" - and he had ever right to get riled up by the comment.

He's worked Spurs into a fantastic outfit, defensively sound, impressive in midfield and deadly in attack... but at times, Pochettino does look like he lacks a clear plan B when Kane is unavailable. Today, he played a dynamic front duo with Alli and Son flitting in and out of the central striker position but none of that troubled United in the least. Llorente's introduction, belated as it was, made Spurs look a better outfit - but a better plan B is a must for a manager who is aiming for higher things than merely "putting the pressure on"

P.S. he woll really want to improve his record vs Mourinho, won't he?
