I watched both games, and not saying Bale was better, but that they played well as a team in overall. Tottenham won without really impressing, they were forced to play discplined and play out the time due to the harsh red card. Modric did alot of work, but the best player is naturally for me the guy who scored 2 goals in 2 chances basically. But yeah Modric is most important in overall, the key that makes their quick counterattacking team work, very neat and tidy creator.
And yeah saw United game, Sunderland were bit meh, but Man U are really getting into shape (weird thing to say when they havent lost yet), and yeah saw that bit, Berbagod is sublime. Also liked how confident and up to par Anderson was in this game, prolly breaking into a real nice season.
