It's almost 50-50, Tomo. Stop trying to make it sound as if we turn up every time in such situations!

I can't think of many, if any, big games we've been wildly expected to be smacked up and it's actually happened.

Usually when we do lose a big game badly it blindsides us unexpectedly, ala Arsenal away in 16/17.

This needs to be the start of us going again..no point winning this and having moments against Southampton 

And a clean sheet!!! Rare

Get in Frank!

To think a few weeks ago people were calling for him to be sacked. Hope you get some intelligence for Christmas 😂😂😂

Frank might be inexperienced- but from the sounds of it he gave Mou a masterclass... 👍

As @Hutcho knows - The future is bright, the future is Blue... 👍

completely bamboozled him

and every player was great on balance

I don't know about thrashing but defeats, am talking about defeats!

It's great for one off circumstances like this to throw curveballs but if it's ever to become a regular thing we need specialist wing backs.

I don't know how Dujon is doing at Wigan but if he furfils his potential he'd be perfect.

Completely agree....

Sorry, meant to say 5 at the back for THIS game.

Wouldn't want to see that all the time

Mourinho probably didn't expect a 3-4-3, when's the last time we played it? September, October? Caught him by surprise.

Best performance of the season! Looked so much more compact and solid with the midfield giving more protection to the back four but also getting forward in numbers too. Everyone played well  but Willian was just awesome and imho his best performance for Chelsea.

[Alabama 1,992]

No more shit Mourinho masterclass...

Inexperienced Frank schooled Mourinho today...

Our last 2 wins at Spurs, including today's, had seen us played the back 3/5. Conteball FTW!

[Jase 43,479]

Wasn't even tested defensively today...

It does feel kind of satisfying beating Mourinhos 'top club's after his comments. Lol. Great win lads. Fantastic performance.

Sooooooooo Soooo happy

Didn't score against us either - who would have predicted that 🤔

I hope Spuds crumble.

I can't wait to see who the new 'rat' will be... I suspect Vertonghen... any other takers? 😂

it was technically a 3 4 2 1 (basically the same as a 3 4 3 but Mount and Willian played a little deeper than Tammy)

and yes, it caught me by surprise too

Stuff your face with humble pie Henrique. Mount was fantastic.

It was the formation I hoped he would play. When we used it we played well and were more solid defensively, obviously. Would like to see it employed more often especially against strong teams.
