Match Threads Chelsea vs Spurs - Match Thread - Day 10

[Up From Dover]

Very satisfied with a point at Chelsea. The side have a lot more discipline and organisation these days especially in defence. As much as I love Poch I don't think we would have put in a solid performance like that to gain a point in his day.

Went for 0-0, do I get a prize?

This annoys me about Dier. He thinks he can play long balls but they more often than not get cut out in a dangerous position.

We all know those who should never try long risky balls and Dier is one of them. #Sissoko #Sanchez #Aurier

Frank admitting the handbrake was on. When you ever hear that from opposition?

This is what you want when you’re playing as we are: teams are scared to go all out chasing a goal because of how devastating we are on the break. Like jose’s Madrid team from 2010-13. Makes it incredibly difficult to play against us as a team who likes having the ball.

Would have taken that result all day long before the game and to be honest they created very little, couple long shots and that was it. Their only main chance was given to them. Much like us, didn’t create anything of note and our best chance came at the end from their mistake.

Alll in all, we have 7 points from Man Utd away, Man City at home and Chelsea away.

There is certainly a "job done" feeling about the performance and the result. We were relying on a Chelsea error and they didn't really make one until injury time.

Most worth focusing on is this: that's 4 clean sheets in a row, 6 from our last 9 games, 3 goals conceded during those 9 games and no more than 1 goal in a match; 16 goals for 3 goals against.

NLD is a must win now though.

Rodon saying himself he got away with two mistakes, but that he’ll learn from it and get better. Good lad.

Well, guess what, young lad... Dier also made a few shitty mistakes that could have given them a goal. Focus on the positives too. For it being his first PL and against a high flying Chelsea... he should give himself a little credit. He did very well.

And not sure if I agree about some of the negative comments about passes from the back. Rodon wasnt that bad. Dier, was poor though.

Definitely a game where we missed Toby passing and I wish we had a version of Sissoko that could pass and dribble. As I think we could have won with some better control and passing in transition.

The only players I was a little disappointed with was Harry and Son. Worked hard. But were a little slow at times and didn’t make a lot of great runs.

Lol shut your mouth Roy Keane you salty bastard

 

[stormfly]

If someone told me that we’d still be top after the Man City and Chelsea game I would have bit your hand off.

 

[freeeki]

Two matches into our hellish run of games, and we’re on 4 points with zero goals conceded.

I’ll take that all day long.

 

[Pompation]

This what josè wanted from this game so well done

 

[vAs]

Jose won the point before even the match has started and nothing could take the point from him. He is looking at the bigger picture. And I'm fine with that.

 

[ardiles&villa]

Sky coverage is a disgrace man..I actually hate them so much

 

[wiggo24]

NLD is a must win now though.

Much easier game than today though in theory.

Will be disappointed with anything except three points at home against them, especially with fans coming into the stadiums next week.

Lol shut your mouth Roy Keane you salty bastard

I still think he's a Spurs fan. Heard it years ago and he just had a little freudian slip there.

 

[Shadydan]

Jimmy knows

 

[fishhhandaricecake]

Jimmy FH speaks very well about Spurs , top man.

 

[SlotBadger]

Hasselbaink being much fairer and reasonable than Keane with his opinions about us.

 

[stormfly]

Still think we should have snatched it at the end. Not sure what Le Celso was thinking.
