The result at White Hart Lane is a shocker considering how the two clubs have started the season. The league is more unpredictable than ever. Or perhaps competitive would be a better word here.

Im just about satisfied, after having gotten into my head that we have no ambition whatsoever. We'll survive but expect nothing special while Ashley is here. Simple as that.

Well said. Spot on about Mapou, Gouffran and Ben Arfa. Liverpool is going to be a huge test. Their free flowing attack with both Sturridge and Suarez in form is going to prove a real tester for the any defensive improvements we may try to make during the next couple of weeks. Although having said dont we already spend the majority of training on defence?

It was Henry-esque

He's having a decent season so far.

Supposed to be highly rated, obviously you can see why now after tonight. Slightly like HBA in the way he runs with the ball too. Sunderland really are shite, Man U didnt even need to move past the second gear to beat them. Then again they were shite before the derby last season too

Santon and Sissoko were the frustrating ones for me today. Both missed plenty of simple passes. Santon caught out of position a fair few times too, as usual. Still funny though how some people have had a dig at Debuchy and not him, because I didnt see Debuchy do much wrong today. Cisse was better on the whole, worked harder and the hold up play was a bit better. Just wish he would find a premiership goal from somewhere. Lucky for us Remy is banging them in at the moment.

Thank heavens for that, I was sure we were going to throw it away. Nervy second half but a deserved win in the end. Can have a peaceful couple of weeks now.

Despite the fact it happens nearly every week, never ceases to amaze me how we suddenly fall apart.

Williamson :lol;

Class half. Brilliant stuff from Remy. And that freekick from Cabaye, so unlucky We need to perform for the whole game for a change though. We've battered them but this isnt over.

No but the rumours are coming in from everywhere including those people on twitter that got the lineup spot on last time well before the official one came out. I agree. Its just so stupid. Whatever little sympathy I've left for Pardew will be gone if he drops HBA.

No HBA then?

Yikes!

The team around you matters with for every player to be honest.

Too bad Ashley was born with a black and white spoon in his mouth

Agree about Dante. Subotic isnt bad either, Hummels takes the spotlight there but I thought he was rescued a fair amount of times by his partner last season.

Ok, I know you said that only so someone would ask you who the best is , so please go ahead

That was awesome from Bayern. And to think the players they didnt even need to play

I thought Debuchy did okay last night to be honest. Agree about Cabaye he's got be in there at all costs. Anita physique is a problem but do you really think Tiote and Sissoko have done more than him recently? I dont. I cant remember if Sissoko made a single correct pass last night. And the only ones from Tiote are either sideways or backwards.

He was, but to me, he along with Gouffran were the only ones who actually seem bothered in the first half.

Sissoko couldnt pass for the life of him. Ben Arfa got shrugged off the ball by Coleman. Coloccini looked like he was playing the first premier league game of his life.Santon the first fooball game of his life. Even Krul seemed to be flapping about aimlessly. Just a complete mess of a performance. Felt a bit for Gouffran and Anita, they were the ones seemed to be trying hard. Anita was way to weak and lacking the final pass on most occasions, but at least he was looking to move forwards. Tiote can go sideways at best.

Sissoko seems to be completely lost. Couldnt find a pass for the life of him yesterday. Not sure why Anita went off and not him.

Well apparently he got them to listen at half time yesterday.
