Be warned, Man United

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino has warned Manchester United his team are back in form after their 3-1 win over CSKA Moscow in the Champions League yesterday morning (Singapore time).

Spurs have scored eight goals in two games after Dele Alli, Harry Kane and an Igor Akinfeev own-goal backed up last Saturday's 5-0 thrashing of Swansea.

The victory over CSKA means Pochettino's men finished third in Group E and will drop into the last 32 of the Europa League.

Tottenham now turn their attention to Sunday's trip to Manchester United and will be confident following two convincing wins and with key players back to full fitness.

They have been boosted by the return of Kane in recent weeks, while Toby Alderweireld came on as a substitute at Wembley and could make his first start in almost eight weeks at Old Trafford.

"We are starting to show our real quality," Pochettino said. "We struggled in the last month and a half because we have some problems, but we have all the squad nearly fit and we are stronger."

Spurs, who had lost their last six consecutive matches at Wembley, got a timely boost with their win over CSKA, as they will continue to play their Europa League home fixtures there.
