Ben had a good game today, Spurs unlucky they were up against De Gea. Agree with that, he was solid. De Gea was another level!

De Gea was another level!
If just four of those efforts were either side of him he wouldn't have stood a chance - woeful finishing IMO.
Spurs should have won about 5-1 i reckon.

Why is it always "straight at the keeper" rather rhan the keeper having good positioning? Thankfully, Ben Foster raised this issue in a tweet that was discussed on MOTD2 last night. They showed Lloris' positioning for United's goal compared to De Gea's positioning for a shot by Kane that was "straight at him". It wasn't a perfect example to discuss as there were other clear differences between the opportunities, but at least Foster brought attention to this. Good positioning makes a shot look poor. Poor positioning (see our own Wayne Hennessey) makes poor shot look like screamers. Also don't forget that while De Gea made 11 saves in the second half, Lloris also made 7, a couple of which were exceptional, so it's not as if United scored their one and only chance and fluked a win.

Went down with an injury fairly early, replaced by Danny Rose. Hopefully nothing serious.
Gone to penalties now. Ampadu on the bench but didn't feature.

What’s the latest on Ben’s injury? I’m hoping Poch has just been keeping him fresh for the champions league ties.

Another massive plus especially as we may be short at centre half.

I went to this game last night, it was ok its very impressive but it has done nothing for the area god its a shitheap and getting away from the area is a nightmare on public transport the ground is a bit soulless much prefer Selhurst. We thought we were playing Spurs,s neighbours there ground has no atmosphere as well probably full of Piers types. Im all for Wales playing a friendly at Spurs though....

We should never play home games outside of Waled I was hoping the FAW would count it as an away fixture and we could fill our boots with points to be exclusive members of the closed shop.

It's a flip of the coin as to who I'd prefer to join them, just hope it isn't the Gunners (for a change at least).

Old Trafford anyone? Anfield anyone? Or.. the Ethiad? I can just see Giggs squirming at the thought....(sorry, couldn't resist!).

Congrats to Davies on helping Spurs reach the CL semi finals. Yes. Clouds and silver lining ... With the shocker Danny Rose had today, I'd be surprised if he ever starts a game again ahead of Ben ;-)

Why does he start premiership games and not champions League ?

Because the manager and most Spurs fans think Rose is better
