Top of the league having seen nowhere near our best attacking form. 😂😂😂

we are the best defensive football team on the planet

first time we can say that since 2004/5

Lets not start overplaying Mount again, remember what happened the last time. Also we are blessed with amazing depth in the squad, we need to use it effectively.

Wow. Hadn’t realise that. 3 points next week and we could genuinely break away.

everyone vote for thiago to be man of the match: http://mym0tm.com/2021/09/19/who-was-man-of-the-match-tottenham-0-3-Chelsea/

He is actually too good.

[Milan 17,958]

How great is must have been for the travelling fans, all 3 goals scored at their end and winning away at Spurs is always a worthy evening!

352 a definite option against clubs with physical midfielders. 

With Lukaku I think 3-5-2 is a better option. Since he plays high up the pitch, and you are outnumbered in midfield. 

[NikkiCFC 8,324]

Great 2nd half, I always felt MF three of Jorginho, Kante and Kovacic did not have last word after Sarri left. In 352 they can also work great!

Silva, Alonso, Kova, Kante all masterclass performance.

Defensively Chris-Silva-Rudi is our best lineup with Azpi RWB. We used this against Real and this is by far best option for biggest games, should have used it in Liverpool also, in the end James costed us.

At this point it is on us to lose title, we are number one favorites.

James played for Chris that game. Dont get me wrong we have good defense almost in any lineup but the one I mentioned is number one. Azpi and Chris and better defensively than James and it is not even close.

[DDA 9,941]

First of all.. the original line up worried me before the game and to a certain extent,, us who worried, were correct. First half was abysmal.

Second half was fantastic and bringing on Kante changed everything despite what the pundits said. Our domination took the souls of the Totwnham players and they lost all momentum they had in the first. 

Also, I know Werner misses absolute bankers but that guy changes the whole dynamic when he enters the pitch. His pace and energy is fantastic... I think we seriously have to look at him playing in the left at some point. I think him and Lukaku could be great. 

Talking of Lukaku. Tonight he was poor. Not totally shit but he was poor. TT needs to work on the attacking players finding the right pass and making the right decision when on the counter. Its becoming tedious already. 

Kova was fantastic once again alongside Jorginho but if he ever fucks around with a chance like that again.. he needs to be slapped E-Honda style. 

Overall fantastic performance but we can do alot better. Once we start playing at full force.... Jeez.. it will be mesmeric.

I have been saying for months we can break 15 goals record from that season.

For now 5 games and only 1 pen conceded.

@OhForAGreavsie said no chance. I wonder what he thinks now?

This team does not look like conceding any...

[Fulham Broadway 17,319]

How good was that ? 'Ere in ze North London we are either Arseeenal or Tottering Hotspurs isn't it peeps'

Champions of Europe, we know who we are

[OneMoSalah 8,886]

Will say it again and again and keep saying it, Thomas Tuchel, his ruthlessness and sheer will to be the best is the most important thing this group has. Best manager we have had in years. 

If we keep him happy we will become an absolute force, I am fully convinced. He’s never fully satisfied. No slacking off or oh we did this so we should be ok.

First half wasn’t good in terms of the basics and you seen the reaction second half. As he said post match, the duals, recoveries, 50-50s etc he talked a lot about them and whilst its not a big thing in smaller games, in big games, these are key.

We rolled Spurs over second half despite our quality not being at the highest.

I dont think he was MOTM or anything, but very pleased with Kepa. Noticed his game is evolving. Several times he came out for shots that in the past he would have been rooted to the goal line waiting for.

[Special Juan 28,141]

ha ha ha fucking get in there, fuck off Spurs you wankers

[Magic Lamps 11,692]

Good gritty win. Faced some adversary yet came through. The team just is not faced mentally by being battered for patches, they just switch Up a gear and strike back.  One worrying sign tho . We stand and fall with Kante. If he is not there to protect jorginhos slow ass, we produce turnovers . All of our attackers were harmless today. Apart from lukaku it’s no surprise sadly. We really need to be in the market for a well rounded winger/am

What Tuchel did with this team? I mean... it's the same under Lampard.

Two of Havertz, Mount, Zieych should never play together behind Lukaku. We dont have pacy wing backs as well. One of these 3 players should play with one of faster ones Werner, Pulisic, CHO.

Today I feel I have been proven right about many things:

1. People dont need to worry about Kepa.

2. Alonso over Ben for LWB role since TT is here from day one easily which I have been saying.

3. Set pieces. 

I knew Mount was taken off from set pieces in the end of last season but with no Chilwell, James and Zieych did not know even Alonso and CHO are ahead of him...

He was taken off after round of 36th last season. and since then we scored 3 corner goals in 7 PL games. 

Rudiger against LC in round of 37, Havertz against Liverpool and Silva today. Corners taken by Chilwell, James and Alonso.

4. We are better team offensively without MM but truth being told apart from Lukaku no one is delivering constantly but my biggest hope is for Kai and Puli.

🙂 I also said no chance we'd win the CL in 2012. Then I said there was no chance we'd win the CL in 2021. I'm not always wrong however. In November 2009 I said there was no chance we would win a thing that season. Well we didn't win 'a' thing, we won two things. It's a kind of genius I have so, no, there's no chance we'll break the Premier League goals conceded record!😉

Of course I didn't really have any universe altering reverse manipulation of the fates in mind when I said those things. I said them because I meant them and I still believe we have no chance of beating that record. It's an incredible one.
