Manchester United vs. Tottenham Hotspur: game time, blog, and how to watch online

Wait, didn’t we play Manchester last week?

A week off is a godsend currently for Tottenham Hotspur. Their squad has been decimated by injury, and currently it feels like there is no light at the end of tunnel (beyond those belonging to incoming trains). With barely enough senior players to field an XI against Manchester City last weekend, things are expected to be only slightly better against the red side of Manchester as Spurs head north to taken on Manchester United.

United, on the other hand, have the majority of their squad fit and firing as they sit pretty in fourth place on the Premier League table, flying high after the firing of Ruben Amorim. Michael Carrick has done an admirable job as a caretaker manager; securing a series of results that will have Spurs fans asking what could have been. Instead of going a similar route, Thomas Frank is still running the show in North London, and has steadied the ship somewhat after it looked like it was heading to join the Titanic.

Things are still poised precariously for the Lilywhites, though, and they need to go on a good run to ensure safety – let alone challenge for European spots. Here’s hoping that run can really get going against United.

COYS!

The match thread rules are the same as always. To any visitors coming here for the first time, welcome! We’re glad you’re here! Wipe your feet, mind the gap, and be sure to check out the other pages at this outstanding site. While you’re here, though, we have a few rules and regulations:

• Absolutely no links to illegal streams. They’re bad and they get us in trouble. Violators will be warned or banned.
• We have rules against “relentless negativity.” Nobody likes a Negative Nancy. Don’t knee-jerk and post outlandish or hurtful things just because you’re frustrated.
• Along those lines, outright abuse of players or match officials is also not allowed. It’s fine to say “wow, that was a really bad call,” but it’s NOT okay to direct copious amounts of abuse in the direction of said official over a call you did not like.
• Treat other people in the match thread the way you would want someone else to treat your grandmother. Be nice. This is a community of fans, not an un-moderated message board.
• NO SPIDERS!
• Finally, while we don’t have a rule against profanity, please try and keep the naughty words in check. Also, language that is sexist, racist, transphobic, or homophobic in nature will be swiftly deleted and you will be immediately banned. This is an open, supportive community.
