We were still utterly dominated by Spurs for long stretches of time, but still, we found a way to have more shots on target, and make all of them count.

Wouldn't say we were dominated. It was part of the game plan to allow Spurs to have the ball more, that much was clear. They only had 4 shots on target.

Happy birthday Mr. MOTM!

Huge S/O to him. Today is his 30th birthday and for him to play through THICK & THIN in this game is something he should celebrate wildly for the rest of today. He still has his faults, I really hate when he rushes behind a player that's receiving a ball close to the box. He almost always miserably fails and either makes a foul or allows a succesful 1-2 between two players, and it's so frustrating to watch. Besides that, he was a rock.

Seems like Fabregas' cameo is a bit underrated here. As soon as he came on we dictated the tempo of our game at a much better pace. He helped us retain possession thus calming the nerves, and created excellently (Costa chance, playing in Eden for the Matic goal).

That match was a whirlwind of emotions for me. Those last 15mins after the Matic strike are a complete blur to my mind. 

Eden Hazard, Following in the mighty footsteps of Didoer Drogba showing up in big moment after big moment. 

Standouts for me were: Willian, Batshuayi (whose hold up play was phenomenal), Ake (who wasn't shaken by the momenr AT ALL), Luiz and Kante. 

We were still utterly dominated by Spurs for long stretches of time, but still, we found a way to have more shots on target, and make all of them count. 

This win has simply gotta spur the boys on to finish the season properly now. 

Took the words right out of my mouth but I do disagree that Spurs dominated. I mean yes, they controlled possession for large parts of the game, which wasn't enjoyable, but they hardly peppered our goal with chances. There's no point in dominating games if the team doesn't convert it to clear chances and convert those clear chances into goals. Apart from their goals, can hardly remember Kane, Alli (the likes of Son, Erikssen) having any chances at Courtois.

I guess it is come on Arsenal tomorrow?

I also hope Conte is already preparing for the Saints game - that will be huge too.

Best thing we could do to prepare for Saints was to have that win. It will ne huge for our confidence going forward. Our team spirit was diping lately...

I already said it - he was used a few times on the right flank this season and he always performed nicely and contributed more than well.

1. Brilliant win! This should give us the confidence for our league run-in. Gotta bring home the big one now.

2. Zouma's reaction to Matic's goal (WOW!) was priceless. :lol:

3. Unfair to compare given they are not the same type of defenders but Ake looks much more at home in the back 3 than Zouma. Put in a good performance in a big game despite having not played in weeks. Azpi-Luiz-Ake better than Azpi-Luiz-Cahill?

4. Hasn't been mentioned much but really delighted for Azpi, who of course wore the captain armband today. Perhaps a sign he'll be the next captain.

5. What is a clean sheet?
