Here is how the Red Devils rated in their win over Spurs.
GK) David de Gea – 6
Only faced one shot on target from Spurs, and most difficult save was from a Jones back-pass.
RB) Antonio Valencia – 7
Marauding down the right and on a personal note, came back strong after a devastating performance against Arsenal.
CB) Chris Smalling – 7
Van Gaal loves a footballing centre back and Smalling was efficient on the ball and started off the attacks.
CB) Phil Jones – 7
Lead back the back four well and produced a dominant display.
LB) Daley Blind – 8
Sensational display which showed the Dutchman’s versatility and tactical understanding to completely dominate the left-hand side.
