He wasted little to no time at all in sending out a message, saying criticism he receives only pushes him on.

Assistant coach Mike Phelan praised the fans for the way the crowd got the team over the line and helped them to hold onto the 2-1 lead.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Jesse Lingard also posted messages after the victory.

United were easily the better team and could have won by more goals.

The last few minutes were edgy with Spurs having one late chance but David de Gea was equal to Dele Alli’s effort.

This was a much needed victory heading into Saturday’s game away at Manchester City. The team can go there with a bit of belief.

Given that all the talk before the game was about Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s future, the team responded well.

The players haven’t given up, and nor have the coaching staff. United are in sixth, and can turn this season around still.
