Manchester United vs Tottenham Hotspur player ratings

Tottenham ensured Manchester United’s woeful start to the season got even worse on Monday night to increase the pressure on Jose Mourinho.

Two goals in two second-half minutes from Harry Kane and Lucas Moura stunned Old Trafford before the Brazilian added the third.

Mourinho lined up with a back three, none of whom had featured yet this season, including midfielder Ander Herrera – an experiment that clearly failed.

Here’s how the teams rated:

Manchester United

David De Gea: Could perhaps have done more for Kane’s opener but did everything else he could to keep United in it. Let down by those in front of him, again 6/10

Antonio Valencia: Difficult night for the United captain on the right flank. Did nothing of note – good or bad 5/10

Luke Shaw: One of the few positives to United’s poor start to the season. Continued fine form up and down left flank. Looks likely to return to the England squad 7/10

Chris Smalling: Excellent tackle to dispossess Dele Alli when running back towards his own goal but then skinned by Moura for the third 5/10

Phil Jones: Lucky not to give a penalty away for a shove on Lucas Moura and then questionable marking for Kane’s opener. Went off injured for equally bad Lindelof 4/10

Ander Herrera: Played in a back three and was caught out several times with some sloppy defensive positioning early on. Hooked after 55 minutes and shouldn’t play there again 3/10

Fred: Nearly handed United the perfect start and then created another shooting opportunity after some wonderful footwork but as the game progressed 6/10

Nemanja Matic: Hasn’t quite dovetailed as nicely with Fred in midfield as Mourinho will have hoped 6/10

Paul Pogba: Relatively anonymous and could well come in for criticism for failing to grab game by the scruff of the neck 6/10

Jesse Lingard: Lively presence accompanying Lukaku up front and looks to be continuing good form from World Cup 7/10

Romelu Lukaku: Missed an open goal with the score at 0-0 and still looks to be getting up to pace after the World Cup 6/10

Tottenham

Hugo Lloris: An easy enough return following his arrest for drink driving. Had relatively little do 6/10

Kieran Trippier: Shaw more eye-catching on that wing but the England star is always dangerous with his delivery and set up several chances for teammates 6/10

Toby Alderweireld: Made a crucial block to prevent Jesse Lingard from scoring. A solid presence at the back 7/10

Jan Vertonghen: Paired well with compatriot Alderweireld 7/10

Danny Rose: Horrible blunder to put Lukaku in on goal and looks likely to lose his place in the England squad to Shaw 5/10

Mousa Dembele: Quietly went about his work as Spurs tore United apart 7/10

Eric Dier: Solid enough in midfield 7/10

Dele Alli: A constant threat going forward and should have got his name on the scoresheet. Looks to be getting back to his best 8/10

Christian Eriksen: Found plenty of spaces between United’s five defenders and four midfielders. How the home faithful must wish he played in red 8/10

Lucas Moura: Excellent once again and took his two goals extremely well. Son Heung-min faces a real fight to re-gain his place in the team when he returns 9/10

Harry Kane: A towering header to break the deadlock and linked up well with Moura, Alli and Eriksen. Should have had a couple 7/10
