closed Chelsea v Spurs

[Captain Ahmed 528]

This came out of nothing! And it was wonderful! Matic, in the middle of the Spurs half, slips a pass to Pedro on the left-hand corner of the D. Pedro has his back to goal, but executes a little Cruyff Turn, takes a touch inside, and curls a gorgeous dipper into the top right! Lloris had no chance! That’s a stunner!

Ok, well good goal pedro. 

[Laylabelle 9,301]

Yay!!!!! now please stop going backwards!!

[Polo7 3,496]

Players look dead, you would think we had a mid week game. Moses has been great as usual. Great goal by Pedro.

WAKE THE FUCK UP BOYS!

We could have been in shit deep trouble at HT, thank fucking god Pedro scored a beauty. However, we have been so poor, so poor.

We are playing exactly the way Tottenham want us to play and that is worrying. You can actually hear Pochetino shout 'PUSH, PUSH' and we have absolutely no clue how to deal with that. We need to change something.

But again, thank god Pedro decided to shoot. Hopefully that will damage their confidence. It also reminded me of the Hazard's goal last season.

Pedro is world class.

[FabHazard 655]

Very poor first half...though we looked playing better in the end of the half...Alonso is having stinker .......need to get the ball to front three more quickly...need to hold the defensive line higher up the pitch...Should pass more accurately

[Pizy 17,860]

Need Matic and Kante to take the game by the scruff of the neck in midfield. We need more control there. Dembele and Wanyamahave it too easy at the moment.

[Tomo 21,681]

I would have taken 0-1 and regroup at half time way this has gone, absolutely delighted to be level.

Get Pedro off  :0)

 

He just scored after I wrote that lol 

[DYC. 7,542]

Saved by individual magic. That was really bad.

The good thing about that half is that it highlighted how this team lacks skill, guile and creativity in every line. When they really have to play, and can't rely on an early goal, it's not that great. And a lack of quality. The winning streak has been great but the team still needs more quality.

Well, hope the boys use that bit of luck just now to turn it up in the 2nd half.

Pedro must have felt he was going 2 b dragged off lol, First 10 mins second half momentum will be crucial me thinks, hope conte gets the boys ffff fired up ffs

[Pizy 17,860]

We knew exactly how Spuds would play and had a week to prepare for it. High pressing, high energy, steel in midfield. 

Yet they still battered us that half as if we weren't expecting it.

Pocchetino is putting Conte in his pocket. Spurs is suffocating our defense with high pressure, while when they have the ball we keep giving them space to exchange passes and try long shoots.

Hey, you've been quiet for the past 5 weeks? Surprised you were so reliable in pointing out the problems with Conte

Pedro with his only contribution of the half.

Funny how that will work. He will be cherished for it when he was, by far, the worst player out there before it.

[Milan 17,835]

The question is - could Spurs go on with their aggresive pressing all the way to the final minute or will they fade? The quality of the bench is certainly on our side.
