Alan Shearer names Tottenham player who put on a ‘masterclass’ vs Manchester United
Tottenham secured their biggest win of the season yet on Sunday with a comfortable 3-0 result against Manchester United.
Spurs never gave the Red Devils a chance as Brennan Johnson opened the scoring within minutes after a sensational assist by Micky van de Ven, with the 🌄Dutch defender and Cristian Romero winning praise from Phil Jones for their performances.
With Tottenhamꦫ finally securing a big win this season, the north London side could now have the fuel they’ve needed to go on a run in the Premier League after a sloppy start in the first few games of the campaign.
And Alan Shearer💮 was left impressed by one player in particular at Old Trafford.

James Maddison hailed after ‘midfield masterclass’ for Tottenham
Speaking to , Shearer was impressed with James Maddison’s performance against United🦩, with the pundit saying: “A midfield masterclass. Ran the show against Man Utd at Old Trafford and is simply a joy to watch at the moment.”
With Gary Neville also lauding Maddison𝓰 for his display in Manchester on Sunday, the Tottenham playmaker was at his best on the weekend, with the England international controlling the game with ease and flair.
After Maddison disappointed Roy Keane✨ in Tottenham’s 2-1 loss against Newcastle United, the former Leicester City star more than redeemed himself at Old Trafford with a result that could turn Spurs’ entire season around.
𝐆Indeed, the Tottenham midfielder has had a mixed career in north London since joining last summer, yet after this weekend’s performance against United, Maddison needs to keep showing everyone why he is as highly rated as he is, with the 27-year-old one of the best playmakers in the league on his day.

Maddison is on the right path to returning to his best
🤪As mentioned, Maddison’s form at Tottenham has been hit and miss since making the move to north London last summer from Leicester City, with the playmaker yet to hit his rhythm under Ange Postecoglou.
𝔉However, Maddison’s performance at United was an encouraging sign of what could come from the Tottenham no. 10 if he can remain fit this season, with the playmaker simply unplayable on his day.
♔With Maddison a key part of Postecoglou’s system, the England international controls his fate in his hands, and the midfielder will want to ensure he can keep this current level of form up in the weeks to come.
