    Was that Dave or Moses?

    Hate seeing yellow cards dished out for that.

    Matic put no effort into closing down Erikson.

    Deserved lead. We've been better bar the first 10 minutes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,061 ✭✭✭✭Snake Plisken


    Super Spurs! Great time to score as well!

    I'll tell you in about 3 minutes when I catch up with everyone else.


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


    3 cbs step up and moses is caught in there, very poor from Moses.

    Pretty even half other than that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    That should liven the game up


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,868 ✭✭✭Andersonisgod


    Alonso a clear problem. Walker looks like he can go past him at will, forcing Cahill and Matic (and Kante for the goal) to go over to that side to help him out.

    Matic put no effort into closing down Erikson.
    Neither, Luiz stepped out and left Azpilicueta with a man in front and a man behind, Moses didn't see that straight away and it's not really his fault. If blame has to be apportioned then I'd put it on Luiz.

    Sandro from Juve is apparently one of the top targets. Alonso definitely can be a bit off the pace in high intensity games.

    Good goal from Ali in what was probably his second touch. Good half of football so far, what Spurs lack in technical ability they certainly make up for in effort.

    Bit of an arm wrestle, Spurs were holding their own and enjoying the lions share of possession but didn't see the goal coming. Erikson having a nightmare but picked out Alli very well for the goal, and very well finished. Fair play, matched up well and deserved the lead. Good test for Chelsea, Spurs don't have to commit forward and might be able to pick them off on the counter attack.

    Glorious opportunity missed by chelsea


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

    Another belter of a cross and header


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

    ****ing hell... Again. Haha...

    Well that's how you score against Chelsea.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,465 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    Gap could be only 5pts now
    Game on




  • Some goal
    Defending all over the shop
    Worst I have seen Kante play


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,155 ✭✭✭Sideshow Mark


    Fair play to Spurs, I did not think they had it in them. Hope they go on to get a few more.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,977 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    Eerily similar to last May.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,152 ✭✭✭✭KERSPLAT!


    Put pressure on ffs, Alonso and another just sticking a leg out


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

    Alli channeling his inner Klose


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


    Can we get rid of Cahill for anyone that can play CB


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,046 ✭✭✭Berserker


    Expected more from Chelsea tonight.


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


    Moses diving every time he gets a sniff of the penalty area

    Mad that he's spoofed his way for this long!!:eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,977 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    I'd expect to see Fabregas and Willian for Matic and Pedro soon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,205 ✭✭✭Lucas Hood


    Conte be giving out about the fixtures after the match . Chelsea had too much time off over the Xmas.

    Its the first time since the City game that we've been shkcing at the back, not pressing Eriksen enough.


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


    Doom and gloom from the press incoming at about 9.55pm tonight

    Yea but now no game in hand.
    Liverpool will have gained a point in this round of games.
    I fancy Leicester at home to beat Chelsea too
    They have a good home record

    He's done it at least twice. I thought "simulation" was a yellow card.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,495 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    Wanyama is absolutely dominating Kante tonight.

    Of course, these runs while brilliant all have to end. The big thing you need now (assuming you don't come back here) is to ensure that you don't suffer a hangover from this like what happened to the invincibles.
