Tottenham Hotspur picked up a third win under Tim Sherwood and victory at Old Trafford for the second season running as Emmanuel Adebayor and Christian Eriksen goals sunk Manchester United. A fourth home defeat of the campaign for David Moyes's Red Devils leaves the Premier League champions with little hope of defending their crown. United are now 11 points behind current leaders Arsenal. Danny Welbeck's strike in reply on New Year's Day proved the smallest crumb of comfort. Sherwood made three changes to the Spurs team that won at home to Stoke City last time out for this trip to the Theatre of Dreams. First choice fullbacks Kyle Walker and Danny Rose returned. Box-to-box midfielder Paulinho missed out, however, after damaging ankle ligaments. Etienne Capoue replaced him whilst Kyle Naughton and Zeki Fryers dropped out. Moyes fielded an XI with four alterations from the narrow away win at Norwich. England pair Wayne Rooney and Welbeck returned in attack whilst Antonio Valencia was back from a ban. Teenager Adnan Januzaj replaced 40-year-old Ryan Giggs. Javier Hernandez, Shinji Kagawa and Ashley Young warmed the bench.
