The fans responsible for sorting the flags at Old Trafford have made one in tribute to legendary England and Manchester United midfielder Nobby Stiles, who died on 30 October.

Stiles remains one of only two Englishman to start in winning World and European Cup winning teams.

It is incredibly sad that, like Stiles, the other, Sir Bobby Charlton, is a dementia suffer.

Tottenham captain Harry Kane to BBC Match of the Day: "It feels pretty good [to be top of the table]. It will feel even better if we are still there at the end of May.

"We know there’s a long way to go but if you go top it shows you are doing the right thing.

"We just have to take confidence from these games into the games coming up.

"We knew they would have more possession than us, we didn’t quite move the ball as much as we wanted. Sometimes when you get a goal early the tendency is to drop off. But we knew would get chances on the counter and we got one to finish the game off nicely."

On his partnership with Son Heung-min: "Sonny has been clinical this season. The first goal was really good.

"Different spells in the game we created good chances, we have a great understanding and when he finishes the chances like he is it is great for Tottenham Hotspur."

Girish: The swag is back, The fire is back, Jose is well and truly back to his best... A Mourinho masterclass!!

@saidmadrid5: Like him or loath him but Mourinho has made a great team with spurs...

Tom Lawrence: City just got Mourinho'd!

Manchester United have won all three Premier League away games this season but have only taken one point from their four home league matches.

They have only failed to win any of their opening five home league games twice before - in 1930-31 and 1972-73.

United are winless in six top-flight home matches since beating Bournemouth on 4 July. Their run could extend to seven games for the first time since February to March 1978.

Tottenham skipper Harry Kane speaking to Sky Sports: "Fantastic performance, we knew it was going to be a tough game.

"We had a game plan to play as a unit. Everyone worked their socks off today. We took our chance, Sonny with a great goal. And then we knew it would open up in the second half

"I knew if I dropped deep then the centre-backs would come with me and Sonny could run in behind. We dropped deep, probably more than we needed to, but we changed that at half-time.

"It’s a season where you’ve got to do all it takes to win games. It’s going to be an up and down year. There’s no better feeling when you win. We’ll enjoy it, but we know we’ve got a long way to go.

"We’re doing well, there’s still parts we can improve on. We’ve got a lot of tough games to go. It’s a more open league. Like any season, whoever can put a good spell together will have a good chance of winning."

Manchester United have not won at home in the Premier League this season but that really has to change on Saturday.

United had a very good win at Everton last time out but, on top of their collapse against Spurs, they have struggled to break teams down at Old Trafford, notably when they lost to Crystal Palace on the opening weekend of the season.

I think this is just the way United are at the moment, and the lack of a crowd certainly doesn't help, but I still expect them to find a way past the Baggies.

If they don't, they have got big problems.

Prediction: 3-0

Manchester City have had 41 shots across their last two Premier League games against Spurs, losing them both without scoring.

Spurs scored with both of their shots on target in this match.

Dave Payn: Call it bus-parking, whatever. Spurs have actually been very good to watch this season but Mourinho knew exactly how to beat City and it seemed to me that he executed the plan perfectly.

Kev mcveigh: For the 6th time in 8 games it looks like Pep '5 subs' isn't even using his allowed 3

Hugo Flaxman: I've been following Spurs for a loooong time and for the first time feel this is a team that has everything. They can turn up & wallop a team, or they can sit back, soak up pressure & hit on the counter. They are composed & focused. Such an unfamiliar experience!

Twelve points from eight games marks Manchester City’s lowest points total at this stage of a Premier League campaign since 2008-09 (10 points).

Their 10 goals scored is their lowest after eight games since 2006-07 (six).

Tottenham Hotspur will finish a day top of the Premier League table for the first time since five days in late August 2014.

It’s the first time they will end a day top of the top-flight at least nine games into a season since 11 January 1985.

Paul Pogba aggravated an injury on international duty in training yesterday so misses out for Manchester United this evening.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hopes the Frenchman will be available for Tuesday's Champions League encounter with Basaksehir, although given he didn't complete yesterday's session that must be open to doubt.

Better start building up to the late game now too. The football really never stops.

We'll bring you Spurs and City quotes ASAP.

Spurs will be top of the Premier League tomorrow morning.

Leicester can overtake them if they beat Liverpool tomorrow. A 10-0 win would send Liverpool top.

Bishnu: I think what city is lacking is an Aguero. No one is ready to take a shot when they are inside the box. Jesus and Sterling are not Aguero, period. Perhaps they need a Messi.
