Tottenham Hotspur secured a much-needed, confidence boosting win against struggling Manchester United on Sunday afternoon with James Maddison's contribution boosting the squad - but some Spurs fans in the football.london comments section are mixed about the performances, with highs and lows to pick apart.

The return of Maddison and Guglielmo Vicario was a welcome relief to the short-handed Spurs, while Maddison tapped home 13 minutes into the first half to secure the win. United created chances worthy of an equaliser, but failed to capitalise on those moments and ended up being leapfrogged by Spurs in the Premier League standings.

Spurs have won two on the bounce, with signs that the worst may be coming to an end for Ange Postecoglou. Speaking after the match, the Australian said: "I think the important thing is that we did win. It was an important game for us and an important week. We needed to put in a performance to get us the result and I think we did that. That - coupled with the fact that we've got some significant players back - and they got through the game.

"They got through unscathed and really contributed, it was important for us. It signals a little bit of an opportunity for us to push on from here."

Reader Marlon1 says "Djed Spence exudes confidence, class, reliability and drive. What a potential star and should definitely be considered for England. Madders decent and I like [Mathys] Tel's attitude, maybe too slight for a No.9, but definitely a potential asset for us going forward. Son's [Heung-min] form is VERY worrying.

Commenter Spursla adds: "Son's form is getting better. He played way better. He needs rest. There's a reason why he's played the way he is, as his presence on the pitch provides the other team with concern. [Dejan] Kulusevski definitely needs rest, he already doesn't have pace to play RW but today was 'wow'. As for Spence, I'd take Spence and [Destiny] Udogie over [Pedro] Porro any day."

Spurssince1960 writes: "Djed was great, ran and tackled his heart out, as he has done for many games. Son had a better game and fought hard, [Kevin] Danso took a few too many chances playing out from the back. [Lucas] Bergvall had a decent first half, as did [Rodrigo] Bentancur - but both then faded as the game went on. Ben Davies deserves more credit the way he calms and reads the game. Tel will get better."

It was another player, though, that would have received Christo.Cy's flowers: "The big difference with previous games was Vicario. At last he is back! Before his injury we were fifth in the league - and I think Vic is not getting credit he deserves. He was excellent last night, saved us in many occasions, providing stability etc."

Davmid says: "It was an important victory and that should relieve some of the negativity around the club at the moment. I do think we have problems up front. We're certainly missing [Dominic] Solanke's ability to hold the ball up and his poacher instinct. Tel is young and inexperienced, but he has a lot of energy. I think he will improve. Both Sonny and Deki look tired and both need a rest. Perhaps another week without a midweek match will help."
