Mauricio Pochettino is widely tipped to be Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's permanent replacement at Manchester United. Tottenham would have had to look very hard for a silver lining in the clouds over Wembley as Manchester United inflicted a defeat that casts fresh doubt on their Premier League title credentials. Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford scored the winner during the first half at WembleySo might this continued renaissance under Solskjaer at least mean this loss gives Spurs increased hope United will look elsewhere rather than in the direction of north London? Pochettino and Spurs may suddenly face a dilemma in the remaining weeks of the transfer window if Kane's next health bulletin is a pessimistic one. They will have been clutching at straws as they left Wembley on Sunday night - the fact Solskjaer's latest success at their expense may yet strengthen his case to become permanent Manchester United might have been the best they could do.
