Closed Spurs vs Chelsea

[The Skipper 20,609]

his crossing is not good. has gone only from bad to worse this season.real crossing is to shape the ball with pace (jarvis, albrighton etc) but as ivanovic is a right back, he can be excused for that but all ivanovic does is dump it in. his accuracy is not good. last week against norwich was the first good cross by ivan in ages. i have watched him closely since he became a right back. his crossing and his decision-making to cross were both dreadful but have been markedly improved in the last 2 seasons. still he's no Belletti or Fereira. those 2 were excellent crossers during their time

I agree that Belletti and Paulo are a lot better, but my post was more inclined to you saying that Ashley's a better crosser than Ivanovic, which certainly hasn't been the case in the last few seasons.

Our crosses have been absolutely dire since the 09/10 season. If you just go and have look at some our matches then, you can see the vast difference in delivery quality.

Tough to judge too much on Cole's crossing when he doesn't always cross the ball. His specialty in crossing is putting in those low crosses. As for Ivanovic, his crosses are absolutely frustrating. He always either take one touch too many or a tad second more before crossing it and the ball will always hit an opposition player and not even getting close to any of our players.

ashley cole has a variety of crosses up his sleeve. plus he shapes his crosses in which is always dangerous. remember arsenal away 2 years ago? 2 goals from low ash cole crosses. last season, i remember sturridge's equaliser at white hart lane crossed by cole and lampard's winner against wolves, crossed by cole. cole is much more intelligent in comparison to ivanovic and that's why he is such an effective crosser. he looks for the cutback as well unlike ivan.

this year he hasnt played a lot of crosses though. but he did play 2 beautiful crosses in the game against QPR.

Had a weird dream last night. Dreamed that Spurs were leading us 1-0 and then De Bruyne scored the equalizer deep into stoppage time.

Kevin De Bruyne can cross for sure :-)

Kevin De Bruyne can cross for sure :-)

yeah, he has that in his locker. He is a good long range passer.

Today I woke up and I swear my first thoughts were - I fucking hate Tottenham.

Confidence on the Tottenham forum :

Quote"Not too worried about this one. Everyone is in cracking form. Bale is on form, Jan is on form, Dembele is on form. We have the best GK in the world.

Chelsea is a bunch of cnuts.

That dumb Russian used up all of his fairy dust last year.

I will be very disappointed if we don't win 5-0."

Ow god, now I wanna see our maestro's rip them a new asshole!!!

If we play the 3 Maestro's and play like we did against Le Arse we will destroy Twattenham.

Are they talking about the Granddad or the worlds most expensive back up?

[Stingray 9,441]

I am very much in favor of a complete ass-kicking humiliation of twattenham today. No injuries or anything, just a psychological electroshock-session to them :-)

Think a lot of Chelsea fans will be satisfied with a draw, but I have a good feeling about this one, and hoping for all three points.

I think we'll line up like this:

Cech

Bran - Luiz - Cahill - Cole

Lamps - Mikel

Ramires - Mata - Hazard

Torres

Not that I agree to this lineup, but I think RDM wants to silence Bale, and I for one think we need our vice captain, so I'd not be surprised if Lamps play. 3-2 Chelsea, even though I thought it would be 2-0 earlier. COME ON CHELS!

I'm worried about this game and I would most likely take a draw if it was offered now in advance... Hope I'm wrong and we'lll get the full three points. :blue scalf:
