This second Lucas Moura goal vs United underlined their issues at the back, with Lucas Moura in a one on one situation with centre back Chris Smalling, and easily prevailing to help Spurs win 3-0. An example of poor defending from Smalling, and probably an example of why Mourinho wanted defensive reinforcements in the recently concluded summer window- that’s not a defensive error you’d expect from a title challenging team
