Terrace Talk: Quietening down noisy Londoners all over again

One hopes the TV lip-reader was right: “When you’ve won the Premier League, let me know.” That, allegedly, is what Ashley Young said to Spurs’ Alli during a set-to on Saturday. In the “show-us-yer-medals” culture that is English football, there is no effective rejoinder to that. 

So, well done Ashley, who was also United’s man of the match in many Red eyes.

“When you’ve won the Premier League, let me know” also happens to be what many of us would have liked to say to Pochettino, too. The hype about the cute media-darling Spurs boss had been both deafening and nauseating in the run-up to the Old Trafford clash, but most Reds I know were pretty confident about United’s chances... well, once they’d heard about Kane’s injury, that is.
