Match Threads Spurs Vs Chelsea

[fishhhandaricecake]

Haha love it.
Bored and annoyed with the same media Q’s though not bored and annoyed with our squad ?

As Conte just said you play yhis game 10 times we might win once. Either improve, or forget about competing at the top!

 

[spurnut]

Conte needs to take FK away from Kane. It’s becoming pathetic.

Lo celso did and look what happened there lol
Buy I do agree!

At least GLCs had some height ?

Ha

Baffles me how Conte keeps putting Doherty at LWB? At the very least put Davies there and stick Rodon at LCB. Every time he had the ball Chelsea knew he was coming inside to use his right. Such an easy thing to defend.

he didn’t play Doherty as a lwb today. We spent most of the game as a 442 with Davies as a LB and Doherty as a LM.

Hate the chavs, so vile, despicable and a bunch of ****s

I wouldn't worry too much about that, its us who were despicable over the two legs.

I get all that, and I don't really disagree with any of it. Thing is right now we have the best manager we could possibly have and he has to be given time to turn it around. He's told us there is no quick fix and everyone was pretty unanimously applauding his honesty just a few days ago. Then less than a week later there is a full blown melt down after losing to the European champions.

Melt down is more to do with the lack of ambition from the owners and the fans trust in them to turn it around with investment

 

[Guernman]

Dier is probably the best free kick taker in this squad, which isn't saying much. The fact that he has been given a few in recent games suggests that he has shown this in training. I was hoping it spelt the end of Kane taking them, but heh.... As always the commentators get all excited when Kane lines one up, as if he has ever actually scored one (a single deflection aside I believe?)... but then again, according to them all he is also the captain....

Kane does strike the ball brilliantly and Is very reliable from 12 yards. Otherwise not so good …..

Conte needs to take FK away from Kane. It’s becoming pathetic.

It doesn't really seem set in stone, numerous people seem to take our freekicks game by game and Kane dibs the prime ones around the box. Ultimately others need to step up and find their character/voice, otherwise Kane will just assume and dominate the situations.

Tonight we had Moura out there, pretty sure he's netted a couple of freekicks in recent times, we had Winks out there who put in several decent deliveries at the weekend plus scored... Two possible candidates. If they want to have a go and back themselves they need to tell the others to fuck off, tell Kane he hasn't scored one in about a decade, tell Lo Celso he's got the kicking power of a toddler... If others don't back themselves, show some personality, and step forward it won't change. They might not be any good either, but we won't find out.

 

[Serpico]

We were awful on so many levels.

Chelsea took the piss and made us look stupid.

Beat Arsenal and all is forgiven.

 

[mil1lion]

Hopefully now Chelsea will stop signing our targets as they won't be worried about us catching them

 

[Silky Skills]

At 2-0 there is still some hope which is why I am stupidly going ……… COYS

Should have listened to your head!!!!

 

[bubble07]

Is anyone fuming that kane clearly didn't know the offside rule? He had no need to move beyond kepa

Footballers are so thick

I hope this is British humor that I'm missing out on.. Kane wasn't offside by that much. in a moment like that you aren't necessarily looking at the lines that closely exactly because the goalkeeper is out

 

[fishhhandaricecake]

And yet for 90+ million he scored none.

Can you not see how pointless this statement actually is when you are saying how we've wasted money?

Yep bang on. Chelsea have wasted way more than we have. Kepa was what £70mil! Werner£60mil and so on. The difference is if they get it wrong they have millions more to try again straight away whereas we do not.

 

[Tony-Bish]

Hate the chavs, so vile, despicable and a bunch of ****s

Ironic
Like holding up a mirror

 

[fishhhandaricecake]

Yeah I'm honestly finding some of the comments in here beyond pathetic.

Everyone knows the situation. Conte himself has said we are lacking in player quality, we need to be patient and this is not going to be fixed in one transfer window. It's pathetic how a few days later there's a complete meltdown after losing 2-0 and then 1-0 to the current European champions. I honestly believe we don't deserve the likes of Conte actually trying to turn things around. It's truly laughable how spoilt we've become as a fan base it really is.

First bit of the post is great, 2nd bit not needed mate.

Don’t think our fans are spoilt just tired of the same mistakes and also some of them not being mean but don’t understand football to the deep level so might not always see the big picture, they will see it in time once FP & AC have had Jan and summer to sort out the squad we’ll be a lot
Stronger.

I'm convinced that managers communicate to players, explicitly or not, that there are certain games they aren't worried about winning. Conte will want to be in the Champions League next year. Our chances of achieving that are slightly better that we now don't have a Carabao Cup final to distract us from our top 4 quest. I'm expecting a significantly improved performance against Arsenal.

Lloris, Son, Kane are the only players who get in their best 11.

IMO, these are the only 3 who will get into their match-day squad (not neccesarily starting 11).
No one else in our squad would even make their bench.
