Roquila 1,335 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Well, they totally deserved the win and there's nothing we can do about it. 13 wins in a row is magnificent. The only thing I absolutely HAVE to moan about is how shit sometimes Hazard is. Sometimes I love him and sometimes I hate him. How can such a good player be shit for half of the games and be Messi for the other half? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted January 4, 2017 Author Share Posted January 4, 2017 Another trip to north London. Another shambolic display. The winning run was always going to come to an end but the way we lost today was utterly disgraceful. No desire, no hunger, no fight and no urgency whatsoever from the players. Played like the 2015/16 side and they looked like they would rather be elsewhere. Only consolation is that we're 5 points clear and it's annoying now we have to wait over a week to see how we will react in the league! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MefiX19 1,092 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 They just did the same thing as City did against us, they put Ericson in that position between Wingback, Cb and CM and crossed the ball in. We also lost the Midfield battle. But to be honest did they create any chances apart from those 2? IMO its just really bad day whole team played like shit. Remember guys that Liverpool drew so we still have 5? (dont remember) points gap and Liverpool play MU next and we have shite Leicester team. Let's get behind our staff, players and manager and support everyone. Every winning run has to come to the end. KTBFFH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milan 17,957 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 We had to lose one day, anyway, but to bloody Tottenham is hurting. But were quite awful to be honest. A lot of players seemed to take a day off. Kante was so bad, so bad. Not to mention Luiz's long range passes. Every single one was a waste a of time and space. Hopefully, this will make us stop thinking of some unimportant record and makes us play sexier football again. Oh and hopefully it will force the club to go to the market and buy some much needed players. Anyway, we just played one of the most difficult games and basically lost just one point of the gap at the top. Conte will surely address the weaknesses.

He couldnt do anything else against the likes of the midfield they put out with what he was next to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideshow Luiz 2,310 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Outplayed today, and, I hate to say it, Potch got the better of Conte today. Pep and City showed everyone where the soft spot in this system is: Get width on the right to occupy Alonso, get your best crosser in to the right half space where neither the CM or the CB know who to pick up. De Bruyne did it back then, Erikson today. I'm surprised that no one else has done that since, but I guess not everyone has the quality of a De Bruyne or Erikson to send in balls like that.

Criticism of the team and/or performance does not equal fans acting as if we've been relegated. You're happy with tonight's performance I take it then, especially because we've won the previous 13 right? No one is happy. The problem is crazy things you are saying, like Spurs is better at 3-4-3, Spurs have a better squad, and Chelsea's squad is ultra limited. I would be okay If you were here pointing whats wrong with some players, like Azpi obviously not being a CB, or Pedro being not so good at creating things in the mid. Its just infuriating when someone just post things like "this team is full of mid table qualitaty players, we need more players", or that stupid person Who said Azpi is a better CB than Luiz and Cahill, or people over Moses topic saying he is world class, when his limitations are pretty obvious.

If Fabregas is on the bench, we may as well give up the corner kicks because the delivery is beyond awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laylabelle 9,535 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 From bbcsport... I do find it hilarious how people are questioning Conte's management/the title chase now being wide open after one defeat. It's as if the expectation was Chelsea would win every game and now they haven't it's the end of the world. Symptomatic of the media/culture of total short term outlook on everything these days.
