    Both teams going 3-4-3 it looks like.

    I'd take a draw now TBH.

    At the expense of a chance of "the record number of consecutive wins"?

    Draw would be a good result for Chelsea, obviously a win would be great but I'd also take a draw now. 6 points clear with a tough away game out of the way.

    I think Chelsea are going to go 352 to counter Spurs system with Pedro dropping to midfield and Hazard and Costa up front dragging the CB's.

    Souness in the studio. :(

    Record means nothing if we're not lifting the trophy in May.

    Goes down on paper and spoken about every now and again but I'd prefer a trophy in the cabinet.

    Please draw.

    Fight fight fight I can see a few late tackles and red cards happening.

    2-1 Chelsea for me

    spurs unbeaten at home and 3rd best home record vs the best away record in the league.

    I dont see us winning this TBH, we havent won a league game at the Lane since 2012 and before that, 2005.

    I don't mind him, actually. He does tend to see things through Liverpool tinted glasses, but you can say the same about most pundits re. them favouring their old sides. Ever tried listening to Hoddle when England are on and a Spurs player is on the ball? Souness isn't the worst pundit out there; not by a long way. I suppose that could be defined as damning him with faint praise! Back to tonight, and I just can't see Chelsea losing. So I'll take the next best option, a draw.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,348 ✭✭✭✭ricero


    Chelsea to win it and stroll to the league title. Chelsea biggest threat is complacency


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    Looking forward to this. Two in form teams. Hope for more aggression like what happened last May.

    I'll go 2-2

    I'm going to be a Totting Ham fan for a hour and a half.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,594 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    Chelsea to win 2-1 and then a mass brawl to break out and Chelsea deducted points for failing to control their players, 6 or is it 7 times in 18 months :D make the league interesting

    Can I submit my outrage in advance?

    Unbelievable decision! This ref is having a laugh, must be a [insert relevant beneficiary] fan. Rabble, rabble, indignation. :mad:


    :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,262 ✭✭✭✭GavRedKing


    I'd be happy with no Tony Gale on my stream, result is negligible after that. :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    What a chance missed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,262 ✭✭✭✭GavRedKing


    christ Hazard :rolleyes:

    Spurs on top now, but there's not much in it. Both teams had a decent chance, with Hazard missing a very good one. Decent game so far.

    20 mins, hazard with the only chance.

    Thats about it.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,216 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    Costa going mental at Pedro there :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    Good effort from Erikson.

    Very good game so far IMO. Would be made all the better if Phil Neville would stop trying to impersonate David Attenborough. That's on the link I'm watching it on.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,216 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    Rose probably should have had a yellow for that.

    Good tactical game with plenty of physicality .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,798 ✭✭✭✭DrumSteve


    Take the points Diego and the goals will come


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    Chance opened up for Costa but he really should have layer it off to pedro or Moses

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 960 ✭✭✭Crackle


    Decent chance there. Wasted by Costa.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,262 ✭✭✭✭GavRedKing


    2 best chances to Chelsea, both off target
