Premier League 2016/17

If nothing else Jose has shown other mid table teams how to go about beating Chelsea...

This united could end up 3rd by the end of the season. Remarkable

Can't he jump higher, he was centre half FFS

 

[glacierSpurs]

ok manure, job done, go fuck off now

 

[StevePil]

Well, I got that one wrong!

Get the fuck in, great result

Still up against it as our run in is much tougher than theirs and they have a 4 pt lead, but we needed them to drop points today to give us any hope

Beat them on Sat, and then they have Southampton and Everton.... COYS!

Trouble is, I think they will drop 5 points but not sure we will pick up maximum points

 

[dagraham]

Good result for us.

Now... do we dare to hope...?

As a Spurs fan I have a deep rooted aversion to hope, but it's hard not to get drawn in.

Damn you hope!

Surprise how well Man Utd played. They didn't set up to win the game. The game plan was to hold Chelsea and stop hazard and pedro for creating and having the ball. But United got lucky with 2 goals... And a good win for them and us.

I like Rashford, it's more to do with complete shit like Lingaard and Young in the side. Throw Fellaini in the mix and I can't see them getting too much joy

Who'd have thought that Jose kind of knew what he was doing

 

[glacierSpurs]

Was predicting just a draw, now an additional bonus point dropped for chelscum!

I go to the skysports page for Tottenham and the first thing I see is "Will Poch stay at spurs" http://www.skysports.com/tottenham-hotspur

Do they ever get bored of printing this nonsense?

 

[worcestersauce]

Jose obviously wants to help us win the league before they play us in case he needs the points

As a Spurs fan I have a deep rooted aversion to hope, but it's hard not to get drawn in.

Damn you hope!

Remember that feeling of not even having hope at this time of the season?

Shit weren't it?

Being in amongst it all is the bollocks!

 

[werty]

If Sky don't finish with this I'll be very disappointed

 

[glacierSpurs]

2 losses in 4 games for chelscum! Anything is possible in 6!

 

[WiganSpur]

Hopefully they are still in a bad way by the time they come up against Everton. We'll obviously have to do our bit next week.

Fuck, I'm starting to feel optimistic

Fuck, I'm starting to feel optimistic

Don't fight it...

I think Mourinho was putting himself in a no lose situation today, picking a side that would save him face if it lost and he could stand there post match, shrug, smirk and say "yes, our reserve team lost, blah blah" resting players for the Europa etc. But I have to say tactically, he's overseen a pragmatic masterclass there. He made it what Chelsea didn't want it to be, attritional, scrappy, physical; he's played Hazard out of the game, Herrera was outstanding.

Chelsea losing Alonso was major, we know how important a quality FB is in their type of system, and it threw their dynamics out of whack, but even so, ManU did such an effective job on them. At 1-0 I think it could have got squeaky, but once that second goal went in it set it up perfectly for Mourinho to go into Mourinho shell mode, making good tactical changes. Very reminiscent of what he did against us at Wembley.

Yes, me too. We should know better!

It's just nice to think what this is doing to the chelsea fans
