Manchester United 0-3 Tottenham Hotspur: 5 Talking Points

#4 No signings, no problem for Pochettino's men

There was simply no getting past Toby Alderweireld

For all the buzz created around Mourinho not getting to make the signings he wanted, Pochettino remained calm throughout an absolute catastrophe of a transfer window where the Lilywhites failed to sign even one player.

However, that hardly mattered. Toby Alderweireld stepped up to the task and there was absolutely no getting past him. This kind of a performance coming from a player who was nearly cast out of the team and reportedly wanted out in the summer is refreshingly reassuring.

And then there is Lucas Moura. The former PSG winger has found a new lease of life playing as a centre-forward alongside the Hurricane.

It's 9 out of 9 from 3 games for Tottenham and with this win, they've announced themselves as worthy competitors for the Premier League title.
