Premier League 30th December

Son of a *****.

Everton only have themselves to blame really, wasted too many chances.

 

[haxman]

Is there a more loathsome shower than Chelsea? Everything about them irritates me, my dislike of Arsenal doesn't even come close.

How the hell does Luiz get away with so many bad fouls?

Its the hair wot does it

im glad Chelsea are winning. Rather take 4th than go for 3rd and end up 5th! The more the likes of Everton, Arsenal and WBA lose the better!

No. audere est facere

Damn you Jelavic, should've had at least two today.

 

[kishman]

If only Everton were this wasteful against us. Bloody Jelavic!!

 

[panoma]

Chelsea always so lucky! Guess the saying "fortune favours the brave" is all wrong and it should be "fortune favours criminal russians, racist thugs and classless supporters!".

No way, I always want Chelsea to lose regardless of who they're playing.

Massively undeserved but probably not a bad result for Spurs. With Chelsea's squad and spending power it's probably a bit unrealistic to expect to finish above them again so Everton losing is good.

Interesting - I tend to support the team that I feel will have the least impact on Spurs position over the season.

If we take care of our own business, we shouldn't have to worry about other sides and what they do. We're good enough to compete with Chelsea, half way through the season and we're two points behind them, I'd have taken that all day long.

Surely the same applies to them though? We no matter how optimistic we are, we are not going to win every game and so sometimes we do need our rivals to drop points and IMO we are fighting for 4th this season where Everton will be our rivals. I expect City, United and Chelsea to contest the top 3 spots and us, Arsenal and Everton to be fighting for 4th.

Poor old QPR methinks they are in for a battering this afternoon they must be thinking 'Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more' I hate to say it but I think at least a 4-1 bashing for them.

 

[keithtighe93]

everton are really poor IMO, difficult to watch a team relentlessly lump it forward

That's what most people expect to happen. But things don't always turn out as planned and while there's still lots of points to play for, I don't see the point in settling for a fight for 4th, when we're right in contention for 3rd.

I get what you are saying but i would rather at the moment create a gap between us and 5th place and then when the gap is a little bigger, look to close the gap on the likes of Chelsea. The longer it goes with it being close between us and Arsenal/Everton, the more pressure that builds on the players.
