Match Threads Spurs vs Chelsea - Match Thread

[Hoddle&Waddle]

Only just seen the pen incident. What the fuck?!?

Like Souness just said, why did he not just catch it?

Because hes shit, said it from day one. He was Southamptons 3rd choice gk, let that sink in.....

Well that went well. The penalty was right in front of me and I still don't know what the fuck Gazzaniga did, we'd relaxed as it was comfortably his ball, fucking heads gone.
A couple of points, they have so much movement every time Abraham goes up for a header Mount is running into space for the second ball. I'm pretty sure Dele came back to help out after about half an hour because he could see our defence and midfield had no way out, he made a few errors but he was trying to make a difference so good on him. Every time it went to their player he had space every time it went to our player he had someone on him I'd like to complain about the 0-2 score but it's a pretty good reflection.

How can VAR take that long to reach a decision - I fucking hate Chelsea but that’s the most penalty penalty in the history of penalties.

it was waiting for Gary twat face nevilles verdict

 

[ClintEastwould]

Get the fucking footballers on the pitch. The ones who can actually play and pass. It’s so simple. We might more open but fuck it we are two down.

Be brave Jose

 

[Romulus]

Awaiting Kane's Instagram post saying "we know we have to improve"

 

[ackie]

Eriksen on

 

[THFC_SWE]

We can make 5 changes, it doesn't matter. They are superior to us.

 

[Nebby]

Same idiots making the same mistakes. Only way to fix this is to get them out of the team.

 

[felmani26]

Much maligned (rightly so) central midfield and defence as a whole.

Anyone care to criticise golden boy Harold? Because he was fucking wank alright...

 

[glacierSpurs]

The issue isn’t the front four. The issue is the lack of cohesion between defence and midfield. It’s so much easier to defend against an isolated attack

Look at us defending from the front. It doesn't happen. Look at how chelscum is doing, breathing down the neck of our front 4. Our front 4 basically let chelscum defenders play through them so easily. And they are only 3 of them in most occasions.

 

[dtxspurs]

If only we had press resistant midfielders in the squad.

 

[RikkiRocket]

Who ever bought Sissoko needs to be shot.

ditto Jose imo.

 

[Primativ]

I am so so glad I didn't go today, you really do have to question what the point of it all is, a horrible trek there and back to watch this shit. So glad I stayed at home.

If anyone was in any doubt that Mourinho is finished then this game proves he is, old tactics in a new world and seemingly no comprehension as to how to catch up. Absolute shite from every one involved today. I wonder if Levy is wondering what he's done?

 

[panoma]

Chelsea barely created anything and Kane typically scores from there. Not Mourinhos fault we have so many stupid players. If Foyth played rb and Lloris was healthy this is 0-0.

 

[karennina]

We were just about holding the line till Aurier's handful of mistakes midway through the half. He's the one that's too harebrained and too off on his own mission to really give a fuck, even though he probably wants to be the kind of guy who does.

 

[bozzaSPUR]

He needs to give himself one big fucking bollocking. Persisting with Dier, and persisting with sissoko in CM.

What has Dier done wrong?

 

[bigpalacios]

And infuriating thing is both teams were crap before facing us and we couldn't capitalise on their fucking crappiness.

When you play in big games you need to control the midfield and we just cant do it.
Chuck Ndombele on and see if he can start picking some passes

 

[Humbleone]

It looks like having a full weeks training on the team has confused them, don't know what to do with the ball, no fluidity. This is the Jose ball we all feared, maybe it's coming now he's had a week to condition the team.

At least before there were fragments of poch ball, and the combo was cool.

Unreal unspursy performance

 

[Northernspurs]

Erikson is on for dier
