Quite amusing that Chelsea have suddenly turned into West Ham. They have won nothing and it appears all their effort is going into beating Spurs and that their season depends on it. Their coming together is quite appropriate because as a pair of clubs they completely lack class and still seem to inhabit the world where 'Love thy Neighbour' was seen as top TV.

Well, for the first time in Premier League history we can dare to aim for winning the title without sounding deluded. Let's not take anything for granted, though. Before the Man City game in September I had no idea that we would be able to break into the top three, and things change quickly in football. For now, lets just enjoy where we are and focus on getting those last couple of points that will ensure we finish second and on more points than ever before.

Tonight's game is about next season too the way I see it. We need to prove to ourselves, and everyone watching, that the new Tottenham can go to places like Stamford Bridge and get a result under pressure. It will be a really tough game, and we should probably brace ourselves for a rough Monday night if we lose, but how I hope we can deliver tonight.
COYS!

It would be good, if perhaps a vain hope, if we-the-supporters could wait a couple of years before hope morphs into expectation and then into demand .

For those of us who have been patiently enjoying the club's largely-steady progress (2008 excepted) from mid-table irrelevance to quaiity since 2003, it would be nice just to enjoy being likely candidates for the Champions League and plausible title contenders for the next couple of seasons, before we start calling the players "shit" or "poor" and grumbling about the manager, because they have bestowed upon us the "failure" of finishing 3rd.

Not likely to happen that way, is it?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but mathematically we can still win it this year. If Leicester lose both their remaining games and we winn all three, we win.
So let's play that way until all hope is lost. Stranger things have happened. But we need to deliver and hope for a fortunate melt-down of Leicester.
After we beat Chelskum today, we are 5 pts behind with 6 to play for.

 

[sebo_sek]

Better still. they can lose AND draw, and we will still win on goal difference. Am I wrong?

I think our players need to prepare themselves for a rough Monday night, meaning I don't see the ref protecting our boys or doing us any favours!!!

Love your belief mate, but even if we win all of our games, Everton 'grow a pair' and somehow manage to defeat Leicester at the King Power next weekend, I suspect Chav mercenaries (Hazard, Fabregas etc.) will capitulate on the last day, without anything else to play for (remember they have NO dignity or class), except helping us to win the league title.

Having said all of that, it's still very exciting and I'll also keep believing (with you) until it's mathematically impossible.

It's just Chelscum going back to their old ways.

Chelscum would be an absolute nothing club had Abramovic not appeared. if FFP had been brought in once the game become £££m, they wouldn't of won fuck all because they where on the verge of administration before the rusky came and saved their skins.

After our shocking indiscipline tonight I wont be surprised if Chelsea label us as classless. If it was the other way round we would be saying it about them. Some level heads may have seen us hold out.

Can't have it both ways. We used to lack desire and that's why we'd often fade away. Yes you could argue we faded a little in recent weeks, but no one can argue that we didn't care. Even Vorm was involved in something after the match and he hasn't even played a minute of premiership football this year has he?

We were indisciplined and we need to learn from that. However, if you do not recognise Chelsea's involvement in that you are extremely naive. Chelsea have been provoking us for weeks, squared up to us at every opportunity, were begging the referee to send off our players and dished out plenty themselves. I still see them as classless.

John Terry is in fact, Cobra Kai's Terry Silver. Reports are coming in that evidences this fact in Chelsea's pre-match dressing room speech: "The leg, Johnny... sweep it!".

Desire is something completely different from the indiscipline. I don't know what the Chelsea players were saying but the majority of unpleasant stuff I saw were from Spurs players and if you go on football forums you can see it is Spurs being lambasted. If you listen to independent opinions it is us that is in the bad light and that is how I saw it last night. 9 deserved yellows and one or 2 escaped reds says a lot. Naïve me then...

What game were you watching? Terry should have gone early for a forearm smash on Verts, Ivanovich should have had two yellows in the first half before he was booked. Costa lashed out twice in the first half, both of which could have been red. Players saying in the media they want Leicester to win the Premiership was wrong and caused the bad blood before a ball was kicked. I was proud of our players to standing up to their thugs.

 

[mawspurs]

It was interesting how so many Chavski players got away with obvious fouls while we seemed to get booked much more easily.

Costa for his tangle with Vertonghen was the only one I remember getting away without a deserved booking. Who were the others?
