The Red Devils lost 5-0 at home to fierce rivals Liverpool on Sunday and are now winless in four league matches. United have dropped down to seventh spot on the league standings as a result; eight points behind leaders Chelsea as pressure grows on manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. 

"We can say this result was coming," said United left-back Luke Shaw following the loss to Liverpool. "I think in past games where we've won, we haven't been at our best and we know that.

"We felt that inside the dressing room and today we need to reflect and we have to move on from this because it hurts."
 
Shaw believes that the blame shouldn't solely fall on the United coach, but the players too should stand up and take responsibility. 
 
"I think it's ourselves that we need to look at, first and foremost, in the mirror," he added. Are we doing everything right and preparing right for the games ourselves?

"Of course we have the tactics and how the manager wants us to play, but I think at times we're way too easy to play against."
 
Spurs themselves have lost four of their last six matches and fell to a 1-0 defeat at West Ham United last weekend.

United lost 6-1 at home to Spurs last season but bounced back with a 3-1 victory in London, in the reverse fixture.
