Match Threads Spurs Vs Chelsea

[homer hotspur]

typical to see only 63 pages after this comfortable win against one of our top hated opponents . Would have been 3 figures by now if we had lost. Unfortunately does rather reflect our fans current mentality.

The match was all about commitment which we had in spades - so good watching us defend as a team - if we can just add a little more guile going forward then who knows - i thought we would lose today but I didn’t realise quite how bad Chelsea are - they had no answer to to a team with every player putting in 110%

Great win. Pretty much controlled the game. No real heart attack moments.

I thought the Hammers and Chelsea would give us a right go at but we kept them both at arms length

 

[Timberwolf]

I bloody love beating the chavs. Bloody love it.

I enjoy it even more than beating Arsenal these days. Just such a scummy club who have been such a thorn in our side - feels amazing to beat them.

We’re all in the pub mate

The more I see of Skipp scampering about the midfield and then smashing that goal today it is reminding me of a certain old player of ours by the name of Steve Perryman.

Over the moon with that, about time we turned up against them. Romero is outstanding ?

Deserves to be sacked. Just look at the Kane goal, he has Sterling marking one of the greatest goal scorers in PL history.

That was just bizarre, and picked up by someone on here early doors.
I've seen us do shit like that in the past, Trippier marking some fkin great lump of the oppositions biggest goal threat for example.
Imo it shows a complete cowardice and shunning of responsibility from the centrebacks. Thats there bloody job!
I cant believe Potter set them up to do that.

 

[CookieYiddo]

Thoroughly deserved win. After about 20 mins we started to control the game and never looked back.

 

[Obie Trice]

nice performance today, looked quite controlled through the whole game

cuti was phenomenal

What has “technically “ got to do with banter? Get your head out of you arse and enjoy the forum? One person’s agenda is another person’s witty opinion.

Oh, so NOW it's banter?!
I understand.

Thats been mentioned before. I rate the guy I really do. If he's on the pitch you know about it. He doesnt hide and is involved in everything.
People forget he was absolute mustard before his injury.

Negative news sells mate that’s always been the way of the world nothing new.

Was a good win but the style of play hardly gets you off your seat so another reason for why not tons of pages.

But credit to the lads, good solid performance and win.

Massive win

Could gain some real momentum from here on in hopefully.

I like the balance we have with Davies at LWB, if we could find a left footed upgrade on him and upgrade Dier and replace Hugo then our squad will be looking v tasty next season.

 

[ilikeost]

He isn’t. All he is saying is that you can’t stay zonal on the second ball which is what it is once Dier makes contact. At that point you can’t lose your man

There wouldn't be a 2nd ball to play if Chilwell did what he was supposed to do and pushed up. I don't understand how you can watch that sequence and think the issue was Sterling doing what they obviously has been drilled to do and not Chilwell chilling several feet deeper. You might say zonal is a bad way to defend, ok, but that is borderline irrelevant.

I know what you mean but I do think a part of this is because people are less likely to flock an internet forum after a massive derby win as they're like... celebrating and enjoying life.

He gave the ball away a few times early on but the goal made him feel 10 ft tall and he was wrapping passes into the front players feet and slamming in crucial tackles after that.

Happy for Skippy.

Playing regular games helps most players to find a better rhythm.

Chelsea spent £105m on enzo fernandez

Who!!!!

Mate, we beat Chelsea 2-0 and never really looked threatened.
The stadium was bouncing by all accounts too, so if that doesn't get you off your seat and buzzing, I don't know what will?

It was a great result and a great team performance, spattered with some outstanding individual displays.
I don't understand what people expect/want nowadays.
