How did they give Walker MOTM today? He played very well but surely Gallas?

The only concern is that Chelsea look so bad that I can't see them getting anything from Arse***! We need them to get at least a draw.

Gallas was brilliant today too, really like the guy's attitude, don't give a monkey's that he played for the two teams of ****s


What really impressed me about Gallas today was that he was constantly organising things. Thought he showed real leadership on the pitch today and used his experiance well.

don't think either of our CB's were 'brilliant' today.

several times caught sleeping while straight long balls caught them out.

Great performance today and the only thing we didn't manage was to get the winner we clearly deserved. Even Gary Neville was wanting us to get the win our display had merited.

I've said it before the Stoke game and I said it after the Stoke game. We'll finish third and it's performances like that which only enhance my view.

Come on you Spurs, we'll get the luck we need at some point and things will go our way at some point soon. I believe in this lot! Yiddo!

If any one of the numerous clear cut chances we missed gone in today that would have probably been our best and most impressive game of the season

As others are saying, it was his leadership skills that impressed me mainly. 'Brilliant' may be a bit ott, but he played well IMO

4-3-3 has to be our default formation.

I even thought it still looked good when Saha went wide right, even more of a goal threat after that although I did think VDV had a good game also.

Credit to Harry today, I thought he was gonna open us up after bringing Saha on but he kept it the same, Livermore for Sandro was also the right choice as well I think.

COYS. Happy after a game for the first time in ages :lol:

Can't really agree it was a good second half performance. First 5 mins they were on top, then an even 15, followed by a spell where we were bloody awful and off the pace, constantly giving the ball away cheap and niggling free kicks, as well as being a bit lucky not to give away a penalty.

Now the last 15 - 20 mins was more like it! Really should have won it then but a much better result for us than them obviously.

In my opinion if the back 4 that played today remain fit, that would be my pick for the rest of the season.

Much improved in the 2nd half and in the end we should have won with the chances we created. To consistently create more chances than our opposition in the last 4 games and not win any of them suggests the problem is our chance conversion. Only 2 goals from those games.

I think Van der Vaart has much improved our play ever since he rejoined the starting XI.

And Walker was rightly MotM.

I agree the 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 if you like is the way forward.

Saha on the right reminded me of how Chelsea have used Anelka in the past couple of years.
