- Romelu Lukaku at that point spurned another brilliant possibility at the United opener in the following 15 minutes, when he terminated wide of an open net after a poor back pass from Danny Rose enabled the Belgium global to round Hugo Lloris.
- Luke Shaw was alongside set up Lukaku, pursuing down a long ball and reducing to the previous Chelsea player just to see him scrape his first-time endeavour at the goal keeper.
If only there had been some way Manchester United might have been able to predict that José Mourinho’s appointment would result in two years of supernaturally boring football followed by everything going tits up.
But no. There was absolutely no way of knowing this would happen.

- Manchester United kept on molding the better of the odds with Fred twisting wide of the far post after a perfect stepover and Paul Pogba constraining a spare from Lloris with a low line drive from outside the penalty region.
- Tottenham came to form as the principal half wore on, yet the last move was absent for the guests as Christian Eriksen constrained a De Gea spare before simply passing up a shameless pass into the region from Alli.
One thing is for certain: Manchester United are in crisis mode. The club can brief what they want, but results speak louder and some players look like they have totally given up playing for Mourinho.
