Another good result for Manchester United in the Premier League.
After watching the Reds beat Wolves 1-0 on Saturday and climb into fourth place, a part of me thought that 24 hours later we would be back in fifth.
I didn’t expect Tottenham to lose 2-0 against Aston Villa which means United will now stay in fourth place in the league table.
Buendia and Douglas Luiz helped Unai Emery’s side beat Tottenham – who sit fifth, two points behind United having played one more game.
