Player Ratings – Manchester United 2 – 0 Tottenham Hotspur

Kuszczak – 7 - rarely tested, but made some decent saves when called upon and commanded his area well. Floored Brown with a punch.

Neville – 6 – Did nothing badly wrong, but didn’t contribute much to the attack. Found to be short of pace by Lennon a couple of times.

Brown – 7 - Dominating aerial performance by Brown who is filling in very well for Ferdinand.

Vidic – 8 - Excellent! Made a number of perfect tackles to thwart Tottenham attacks and commanded the back line well.

De Laet – 7 On top of his defensive duties and got forward whenever he could. Made some penetrating runs with the ball.

Obertan – 6 - Not quite as impressive as his early appearances for United.

Gibson – 8 Two fantastic goals from outside the box. The second in particular was very well taken, leaving the ‘keeper no chance.

Anderson – 8 - Put himself all over the pitch, tackling, hustling, passing and generally dominating the midfield.

Park- 5 - Contributed very little except work-rate.

Berbatov – 6 - Quiet day for the Bulgarian coming back from injury. Clearly isn’t match fit yet.

Welbeck – 7 - Held the ball up well and played some good one touch football. Needs to work on his end product in the final third though.
