Easily the best team in England over the span of the last two seasons (with nothing to show for it)
Who's been better? Chelsea? They were awful two seasons ago.
Leicester? They were awful last season.

The receipt:

Another prestigious trophy for the Spurs trophy cabinet.

Matic playing a solid game thus far and Lukaku scores on his debut. Still plenty of game left, but Im loving what Im seeing

Why did Chelsea sell Matic again?
Think Matic was quite forceful. Something Jose said yesterday suggested it was matics people who told Jose he wanted to come. Otherwise he never would have bothered trying as he thought it was impossible. Still crazy.
 
Matic have long and really terrible drops of form, is 29, and was looking to become a bench player at Chelsea. Selling him to United was annoying, but I am not all that bothered about him leaving. Think United could have done better at that amount of as well. But he wanted to leave, and Chelsea weren't about to make him a starting 11 next season... so eh.
 
Kanté is better and needs someone with more footballing qualities next to him. Our problem is not that we sold Matic, it's that we are apparently not replacing him.

Kind of did with Bakayoko. He is just injured. The problem is selling or loaning out all second bench options (as in Chalobah, Loftus cheek, Baker...)
 
It's only been a game and half mind, but Matic looks back to his (at least near) best. I've been impressed and this coming from a United fan who wasn't impressed by him signing cos I thought he was on the decline.
 
Just answering the very simple question of who's been the best Prem club over the last two seasons, that's all.

They were 2nd or 3rd best in both seasons. Best teams are decided for that season, not averaged across 2 seasons to support the narrative. Every Spurs fan would rather want they win once than bottle up every year after putting pressure on.

United sleeping after dominating and only getting one goal. Trademark Mou United. Watch this finish 1-1. Bet 10 grand on it.

Nice first half from United. West Ham gained a small slice of the game back in the last 10 minutes or so. Need to get a 2nd goal.
