Sheffield United: Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino says Blades were 'worst opposition' Spurs could have had after Champions League win
Spurs' horrible start to the season continued as they were again sub-standard in stuttering to a 1-1 draw against United, leaving them with just three wins from their opening 12 league games.
Spurs led at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium through Son Heung-min, but George Baldock's 78th-minute leveller earned the Blades, who also had a goal marginally ruled out by VAR, a deserved point.

"This is the worst opponent you can have when you come to play from Wednesday in the Champions League, a very long way.
"I am disappointed because in the moment we broke them down to go and lead 1-0 in the second half, not keeping that advantage or scoring the second goal in that moment when we dominated the game.
"We feel so disappointed, I don't know the word to use. Upset or frustrated, but it is not a happy feeling."
