Former Tottenham player and manager Glenn Hoddle questioned Manchester United's fitness in the latter stages of Saturday's 2-0 defeat at Spurs.
United were well beaten at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with Ange Postecoglou's side scoring both their goals in a dominant second-half performance. Pape Sarr fired home the opener from close-range shortly after the break before Lisandro Martinez stabbed into his own net with seven minutes to go.
Tottenham were able to go through the gears after half-time, with Yves Bissouma and James Maddison running the show. Despite being behind for much of the second half, United barely laid a glove on their opponents and looked short of energy as the game went on.

“The midfield for Tottenham, that’s where I felt Spurs, especially in the second half, really dominated,” Hoddle told Premier League Productions. “Sarr and Bissouma, particularly, that’s where they took over the game.
"They looked a little bit tired did Man United, to me, in that central midfield position. That’s where I feel Spurs have ended up winning the game. They dominated and they had runners off them, then they caused Man United a lot of problems in the second half.”
The comments from Hoddle echo those of former United captain Roy Keane, who slammed Erik ten Hag's side in a series of furious rants after full-time. Keane took particular aim at the midfield pairing of Mason Mount and Bruno Fernandes, questioning whether the team are over-training and suffering as a result.
