Not MOTM, but how about Winks stepping into the match and looking very comfortable in a pressure cooker of a match?
The bias with Sky is infuriating, makes me sick. Alan Smith when asked if we are in the title race "Well it's a 7 point gap" I wonder if that would have been his response if it was Arsenal? Or City or Liverpool?
The answer is no, his response would have been "Well they have the talent at (City, United, Liverpool, Arsenal) so why not?"
We just beat the "unbeatable" Chelsea and not by some fluke or with luck or anything that Sky might suggest but because we were better than them, a lot better than them actually, they looked completely average.
They had the same amount of rest as us, they had their best team out, no excuses, we were better, does that mean we can win the league? Well I fucking think we can and fuck Sky if they think otherwise, we have to prove we can and I have faith in the lads.
+25 goal difference, 2 points behind the media favourites Liverpoo who are apparently considered a champions league regular now and bang on the money for the title if you believe these mugs in the media (despite them finishing 8th last season and being generally shit at the back, but let's ignore that shall we?) And 7 behind Chelsea who we just basically completely spanked mentally and physically in front of the world.
So yeah, we are title contenders and fuck anyone who thinks otherwise.
That's a great statBeeb:
He's magic you know
Tottenham 2-0 Chelsea
Spurs haven't lost a Premier League London derby at White Hart Lane under Mauricio Pochettino (W8 D4 L0).
Lads, I think our season just started in a big, big way.
We were a youthful high energy team last year. The last month has been purely professional. That was a performance from us like I've never seen. Chelsea didn't have a sniff. So impressive. Not another club in the league capable of doing that to anyone.
Best performance from us arguably in a decades. Not flash, not all action, but the level of control we showed, from the youngest team in the league. Jesus, lads, that was a huge statement. That's the culmination of three years of Poch just come to fruition.
Delighted. And so impressed.
MOTM for sureWanyama really was sensational
We're very strong in 352/343 and 4231 now. Got them down. Need to add 433 to the mix at some point. Good to have them all in your pocket to give yourself maximum tactical scope.Superb performance- this system really suits our team
3 really good ball playing defenders
highly effective wing backs
2 superb central midfielders who shield defence and retain possession so well and system frees up Eriksen and Alli to be creative
Awesome!
The way we played 3 at the back helps out play. Plays to everyone's strength.Anyone still think bringing Wanyama into the team has hindered us? Man is a fucking beast, stopping attacks left, right and center.
Was my MOTMWanyama been epic tonight. Wow
Ok then..
