Spurs have improved so much as this season goes on, not too dissimilar to liverpool. Will not be easy by any stretch

Nervous about this one. Really can't afford to lose another coc final to the spuds.

KTF weve had our warning

[Barbara 15,149]

we better find our best football in the next three weeks... Spurs played very well against Arsenal and we were woeful against Aston Villa... if they come to this match motivated and playing that well, we're in for a very tough match and maybe even a loss.

Their pressing has been great, their AMs and strikers are working very well, Rose has been supporting their attack the way he did early in the season. Things are just clicking for them while we look clueless.

I hope when Cesc is back to the side we look better and I hope we play well against them in the final and seal our first title of the season. But we must up our game because they upped theirs quite a lot imo.

Should note that former Chelsea player Milan Lalkovic is currently playing for Walsall.

And looking forward to that 2 huge derbies!

Good draw, considering some of the awkward ones out there for Saints, Arsenal, Spurs, Villa and Swansea.

CONSPIRACY ,, almost all Blues drawn away ... Chelsea City Everton Carlisle Ipswich and Birmingham

[Duppy Conqueror 1,526]

horrible lay out on the away end last time I was there..lots of obstructed viewing from big pillars poorly situated. has been a few years tho so they might have sorted it out..otherwise take plenty of pain relief gel for your neck afterwards.

Who?

[LDN Blue 7,903]

If Mourinho is serious about using youth, this is is the perfect competition to showcase them in! That doesn't mean switch to the first XI when it gets to QF!! Let them have a chance to go all the way!

[Pacquiao 1,834]

we will also be up against another former Chelsea youth team player that not many will have heard of, Neil Etheridge he is the number 1 GK for the Philippines so I am looking forward to seeing him play against Chelsea!
