I think some are being too harsh with Romero... it's a Derby they psyched up for the game. I'm proud of everyone of the players. Destiny is young and he will learn from this. Romero went for and got the ball... I'll give him the benefit here.
If it was isolated I would agree, its a thing tho, these mad moments. He has been an awful lot better this season, but where there is little thinking time he makes the wrong decisions.

Don't wanna be a negative nigel but my annoyance with Romero is outweighing the pride I have in the way we battled.

Maybe that's a me problem

Hard watch, thinking what could have been, and watching this bunch of shit celebrating.

The two absolute idiots aside, they have been heroic. Incredible effort and fitness levels. Love this club.

So fucking annoying Romero chose tonight to be a dickhead. Keep 11 men on there and we’re cruising to victory. Gutted but proud.
Hes a selfish wanker, his actions are unforgivable considering we were 1-0 up.

We really need a quality CB that will force Romero to think about his actions. If he thought there was a player that was going to come in and take his spot, he would think before making those stupid unnecessary mistakes.

Last season we got dicked by Newcastle and it was embarrassing. This doesn’t feel embarrassing at all.
frustrating massively but actually quite proud of those 9 players who gave it their all.
high line was suicidal at times but we had chances to get back in it

Michael Oliver Clattenburg was the difference.

Too many sneaky Chelsea fouls let pass from the start

Sad thing is up until the Udogie double foot slide we were all over them.

The result won't define our season. Still think we'll be up there in top four come May.

I don't even feel upset or angry. Just laughing about how mad that entire match was. We were SO close to getting a 2-2.

Proud. Immensely proud. I hope people realise now that Hojbjerg and Dier really aren't that bad. They defended for their lives.

Red cards stupidly frustrating when we were on top.

That said this loss still showed more about us than most of last few seasons. 2 injury time goals flatter Chelsea and could have been oh so different if Bentancur or Son scored.
Yup we showed more about our character in this game and as a team than we did last season... I see improvement in the team...there's something to hold on too.

That game was soul destroying.

I completely disagree. Don't get me wrong, we're probably going to slide down the table, what with the suspensions and injuries but we all came into the season with zero expectation anyway. I come away from that excited for the future.

We've finally got a manager who's brave and who has a genuine belief that there is a correct way to play football. We've got a group of players who left everything they had on the pitch even though the odds were stacked against them, some of those players have barely featured this season and they still gave everything.

Somethings happening at spurs...it might not be this season but there's a definite change in our mentality.

We played some nice football even with 9 men. It was naive to continue it at 3-1 but it will probably help us in the long run to stick at the system under the most challenging circumstances.
