Tottenham humiliate Manchester United as Bruno Fernandes sent off
This is the nadir of Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United tenure. A slipshod shambolic mess that Tottenham exploited gleefully, pinging the ball about and punching through their storied hosts as if in a men-v-kids knockabout.
The manager claims to have a plan and on this showing it seems to be based on waving the opposition past on a figurative red carpet as Spurs ran through United endlessly. Towards the end, at 2-0 down, a 10-man United rallied, as Casemiro raided and Alejandro Garnacho darted in: this merely showed what Ten Hag’s charges might have done if they were not an embarrassment to their famous shirt.
