David de Gea says it was a performance to be proud of as Manchester United beat Tottenham in the Premier League

David de Gea has said "this is the real Manchester United" after his inspired performance helped them to win a sixth consecutive Premier League game.

The goalkeeper made a string of stunning saves - 11 in total - to keep Tottenham from scoring as United claimed another victory under caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, winning 1-0 at Wembley.

United look to be back to their best in recent weeks and De Gea agrees, saying the club is getting back to their real selves.

"We won the game against a top team like Tottenham, we controlled the first half but in the second half they put on a lot of pressure and had chances. I was feeling very well with the first two saves, it was a great game," he told Sky Sports.
