Tottenham vs Chelsea

[DYC. 7,542]

No, I don't. But I don't think we have the players to dominate the game in midfield whoever we select, and whatever formation that we pick. As the topic shows, I'd have liked to have been brave and played Josh over Ramires, to give us something fluid and more going forward in linking the midfield to the strikers.

I agree with you about Josh but i already ruled out that chance, we know our manager.

Oh well, let's just hope we manage to scrape a win.

Can't see it really. Rumour that Gallas is struggling too though.

On sky sports one they just showed the chelsea players arriving and lamps looked like he was kitted up.

I had a dream It was about the same old Three Point Lane. Come on boys, any win will take us on top!

[Laylabelle 9,304]

Come on!!!

[DavidEU 2,023]

Lampard and Drogba on the bench. Full team to come.

Michael Dawson returns for Spurs.

Can't stay long, I just want to say..

Well done to Carlo for benching Drogba! Hope that doesn't backfire on us. I'm glad Ramires is playing, we'll be a good, solid defensive unit. Good luck to Chelsea today. I won't be able to stick around and watch the game, so here's to hoping for 3-points

Looks good,we have 3 players on the bench which can change everything,Lamps Drogba and Sturridge.

I would only make one change and that is to play Sturridge from the start and put Kalou later on.

[Kostas 1,468]

Playing without a target man, wonder how are we going to score.

At least it's something different. To be honest I expected same old .. Let's see how that works.

[The Big Drog 1,110]

Where is Didier? Why is Didier on the bench? Surely if we are going out to win and get ourselves going on this tough 3 game run then surely our main man should be leading the line? Perhaps Carlo still thinks he is not over his bout of malaria but all the same I'd still rather our malaria battling Drogba than Kalou.

Great that Super Frank is on the bench.

Nicolas, i'm almost begging you here (and i know you're reading this), please please stay up front.

From a Chelsea fan who has connections and can easily find out where you live.

[caesarblues 51]

Suprised!

So no one in front

3 un-imaginative clones are playing in the midfield.
