Chelscum or Loserpool ,who has the bottle!!!

I would take shelvey. Every pass forward and quickly. Huge range of passing and can receive it under pressure. Not afraid of a tackle either. Best player on the pitch tonight.

The disappointment in Tony Gales voice tonight was a beautiful thing.

Agree, guy hates the guts out of us, his criticism of Vertonghen of all players was rather peculiar

 

[Hoddtastic72]

So we could still finish runners up!

Was it a good goal? can't find a video anywhere

Scorpion mate

Yankspurs giving positivity counsel on SC!

Do not worry. Balance will be restored to the force soon.

He has a bad side to his game where he just gives up defensively.
Give him time and space though and he is an excellent passer of the ball.

If anyone is near Dennis wise right now please can you take a picture of his stupid face and post it on here so i can point and laugh at his misery. Thanks.

I would but you wouldn’t be able to see it because “he’s a very small man”

 

[mattyspurs]

I cant celebrate that. It was a pathetic pathetic performance

At no point did the manager look to address the issues, he just lets a game play out.

Theres no enjoyment from tonight.

Sissoko is the worst player ever to play for us. Prove me wrong

Thats the first ever negative rating iv'e given on this site, but fuck me, if I could give you more I would.

Utter utter bullshit!!

 

[spursbhoy67]

Pointless at this point but...the decisions made by the referee today were incredibly suspect. The blatant shove on Jan in the first half was utterly disgraceful. Chelsea getting 6 minutes of injury time too despite no injuries...

Ah well, fuck 'em all. Were the best team in London.

I watched the Chelsea game and there was a head injury and Huddersfield were time wasting from the kick off. Six minutes was fair to be honest.

 

[olliec]

Well lads, we don't even have to wait until Saturday. Massive relief, and now I am looking forward to the world cup and hopefully for the icing on the cake we finish 3rd and Liverpool lose the final

 

[Archibald&Crooks]

This one is on Poch.

You slags.

 

[rossdapep]

Which makes it even more ridiculous than Moura didn't come on.
Dele had one of his slow, ponderous and irritating games which is becoming the norm lately.

Why our midfield wasn't harrassing Shelvey I do not know.

If you get a late chance to kill the game, who do you fancy Alli or Moura? I know who I'd prefer, also Alli was coming central on the defensive, we needed to stay compact. I don't think Moura would have offered that.

Really think west ham will do us any favours?

 

[Original # 10]

Didn't originally have a ticket for tonight but in the spirit of the bigger picture I will unleash my 100% winning record at Wembley this season just to guarantee a win tonight.

I take full responsibility for anything other than a Spurs victory.

You're welcome.

YOU'RE WELCOME

 

[LexingtonSpurs]

Who said that?

One of the commentators after the final whistle - they knew Chelsea drew, and should have known the impact of both results with just a little bit of prep work.

 

[Colonel Dax]

Yeah, thank fuck we didn't make the FA Cup final.

Haha, I'd erased the FAC from my memory

 

[bc205]

Not a great game to watch that, we definitely rode our luck at times, although we did become more fluid in the second half.

Have to say the atmosphere in the geound where i was sitting was pretty poisonous tonight. From about ten minutes in we had people shouting and groaning at the players. I know it wasn't a good performance but the players aren't going to be uplifted by 'support' like that. Sad to witness.

One thing i really couldn't understand was the lack of marking/pressure on shelvey. Pretty much every good newcastle attack started from a shelvey pass. We gave him so much space. Baffling to me.

Ah yeah you're probably right. I didn't watch the Chelsea game at all, it just fit my narrative against the referees tbh

 

[slartibartfast]

I sincerely hope this is the narrative after all the grief we get!

That wont happen.
Ridiculous that they say that about us but not them after the money they spend.
