closed Spurs 3-1 Chelsea

[!Hazard! 3,394]

Good demonstration that you can still nullify this team by taking Jorginho off the game. The rest of the squad haven't got a clue what do after that.

Oh boy, there's a lot of work to be done

[Johnnyeye 7,445]

Tottenham will remain forever shit no matter what they do.

Defence was shocking. Morata doesn't strike fear into any defence.

[Jase 43,479]

Hardly surprised by the performance and result. It's been coming really.

[FabHazard 655]

First of all Ref is fucking horrible....Luiz was terrible defensively..With jorginho in the middle we will be always prone to counterattacks because of his slow pace...But he is vital to the system sarri plays...Not sure how sarri solves this problem....And the usual suspects that we always know ..Morata and willian ...they need to be dropped and sold...we are bound to lose at some point..This team needs a season to adapt to sarri's methods and training

This squad is impotent as 99 y.o. grandpa. Nothing new, plus we are predictable as fuck.

Yes, but this Tottenham team is better than any other I have watched. They never dominated us physically and mentally like they do now. Their players used to go out and play with fear against ours. Now its the other way around, you could see Luiz, Jorginho and co. backing off because they are terrified of Alli, Kane and others, as if Messi is running at them. Nobody got stuck in, and not only did they beat us in terms of goals but they also beat our players and showed a lot more character.

Only thing Morata strikes fear in is the pitch cuz it knows he is hitting it hard on multiple flops

Well that has been coming a while now. Luiz as always shows he defensive ineptitude in the important games. Spurs are a big team and we go out with one of the smallest sides we have ever put out in the premiership era. Giroud should have been started, Kante should have played deeper as Jorgihno has no pace going backwards. This Chelsea side reminded me of the Arsenal teams getting bullied by us when we had Drogba, Essien, Terry etc. Nice attractive football, but winning fuck all. We are too lightweight against the top sides. And although I hate to admit this, Spurs are a top side. Only for Kepa it could have been much worse. Finally, if I never see Luiz wear the Chelsea blue again it will still be too soon. He's a fucking liability.

Disastrous of a performance really ... horrific defence and bad everything really. Absolute nightmare watching 90 min of this.

[xPetrCechx 13,563]

It was a disaster and after 20 minutes 2-0 was the minimum - Sarri.

That's It.

[cosmicway 1,333]

Martin Atkinson managed to go two up against Chelsea Football Club in the first half.
Their third goal was one you are entitled to score only against you under fourteens if you are Tottenham or Chelsea.

We waited two weeks without football to watch this rubbish.
The second Spurs goal is like one I saw back in 1966 (!) in a derby match. Goalie's view obstucted, ball slides past him.

City are a small side aswell and they played Spurs off the park at wembley a few weeks ago we just didn't turn up today 🙁🙁 the likes of Morata Willian Luiz Alonso need replaced with better quality

Our defense was horrible.
They kept creating chances even after the 3-0, when they slowed down.
Luiz is a libero - in man to man situation he is useless.
Jorginho-Ruddiger below standard.

The defense wasn’t terrible  they were put under pressure from the start. Luiz is not great, but we already knew that.

The midfield went missing as did our gk for the first two goals. Yeah kepa made great saves afterwards, but the game was gone by then - being 2 down away from home.

all players up front had a poor game, including Eden (bit lazy or tired).

Morata worked hard and had a decent game by his standards, with half chances. Giroud came in fresh against tired defenders and with Tottenham not pressing as much... really not the same thing. Neither is good enough I’m afraid.

Luiz was lunching the whole time, like he'd had a pre match spliff. Sp*rs were pretty awful, but had better fitness.

The gulf between Man City and the pack is cavernous, just give them the title now.

The defense was n't terrible ?
They were given some 10-11 chances besides the trhee goals.
We need a defense not only when we are infront and looking forward to control the opposition but at all times.

Suppose we beat City in both matches.
But if they win against everyone else -as they seem to be doing- then they won the league.
So M City are champions, unless the sky falls and somehow they become crippled men after Christmas (impossible).
What happens after City is to be debated and we cannot afford another year out of the CL.
