2-2

GavRedKing

JT suspended for this.

I expect Chelsea to line up as :

Cech

Ivanovic Luiz Cahill Cole

Mikel Ramires

Mata Oscar Hazard

Torres



After our recent win away to Arsenal I'm more confident we can win here but I'll take a draw all the day long if I was given the option before kick off.

AVB will want to put one over us, naturally.

I'm going say we'll win 2-1 though.

everdead.ie

Everyone keeps saying that JT being out is a huge boost for spurs but he's struggled with our pace the last few times he's played at WHL so I'm a bit disappointed.


It's also been like three draws ina row at the Lane so hopefully a big win for us this weekend.

Ade could start given Defoe came home a day late and Ade could of been training an extra day!

GavRedKing

I think JT been suspended is better for us IMO, it allows us to play 2 quicker CB's which we'll certainly need against ye're lot at the Lane.

Defoe, Cahill, Cole were all away longer then they should have been but we really need Cole to be 100% against in an form Lennon.

I reckon this will be a dull affair, i can see this being flat due to the Internationals. I'll go for a 0-0.

4-0 Spurs so.

Goals in this. I'm going to go with an ambitious 3-3 draw.

Big Pussy Bonpensiero

Chelsea team:

Cech; Ivanovic, Luiz, Cahill, Cole; Ramires, Mikel; Oscar, Mata, Hazard; Torres

Presumably a 4-2-3-1 formation, surprised to see Lampard omitted.

Big Pussy Bonpensiero

Spurs team:

Friedel; Walker, Caulker, Gallas, Vertonghen; Sandro, Sigurdsson; Lennon, Dempsey, Bale; Defoe.

Subs: Lloris, Dawson, Naughton, Falque, Livermore, Townsend, Adebayor

Still no Ade starting:(

Dembélé being out for us is a massive blow! sickened! The sig hasn't really proved himself yet and it'll be interesting to see how he fits in alongside Sandro.

Getting nervous for this game, but I'm gonna go with a 2-2 draw

Bale out too...NIGHTMARE!

Lord TSC

Pfft. No loyalty to the team. Players these days. Choosing family over their team :P

Score draw.

Huddlestone is gonna struggle in midfield.

Ya at least he can pass well though hopefully when we have the ball we can ask some questions wish Ade was starting though.

Maybe this is AVB's way of making Ade hungry?

Paully D

Just noticed Friedel's back in. Not ideal to be rotating goalkeepers at all. Pick a number 1 and stick with him AVB!

Blatter

A 12.45 kick off directly after internationals? This is likely to be a borefest.

GavRedKing

Delighted Bale is out that good for us.

Paully D

Mikel has improved so much over the last few seasons.

Well this wasn't right anyway

Anyone else seeing a series of numbers above the Sky Sports 2 HD logo in the top right corner?

Just disappeared now but I'd guess they're trying to identify streams?

Manc-Red

Little Oscar is a great little player - unlucky with that effort...

Spurs playing a high back-line here, they're playing a dangerous game

They done that with Sky Italia a few years back & caught loads of streams out & shut off the cards

Paul Tergat

Some finish from Cahill

GavRedKing

What a strike!!!!

Jax Teller

What a goal .

Kylo Ren

Daaaaaayum.

Some ball by Mata to Hazard there.

klose

Serious chanting going on here :pac:

GavRedKing

The goal should make for a better game anyway. Spurs have to come out fighting now.

Morzadec

Chelsea dominating this in midfield where Mikel and in particular Ramires have been impressive.

Some nice touches from the more attack minded midfielders too. Hard to see Spurs getting back into this one.

Optimalprimerib

Does Dempsey know who he is playing for?

Kylo Ren

Poor recovery from Mata.

Should be 2-0.

Manc-Red

Superb block there by Mikel - that would have burst the net.

Manc-Red

Replays showing a slightly deflected shot for the goal - No matter though, an absolute peach none-the-less...

Sublime

Manc-Red

A good yellow to get there....

Chelsea were away big-time

Will I Amnt

Spurs fans aren't half impatient.
If it's not a forward pass there's a clearly audible collective groan, even when there's nothing on.
