So why are we basing this performance from Spurs as evidence they will leapfrog us? Even under Poch Spurs managed to get the better of City. Only difference is that with Poch they played decent football and offered something that we could genuinly worry about. 

This was the most smash and grab performance I've seen from Spurs and Mourinho. 

top 4 trouble is based off remaining schedule

we drop the next 2 (Manure then Spuds) they will leapfrog us and with 2 pretty much lock losses (Bindippers and probably Shitty who will have full team back by then) and Spuds have NO sure defeats left (if they beat us) then odds are against us

Spuds improved their team this window

we are actually weaker, lololol

I know many are all focused on Kane out, but Son has played superbly as a number nine in the past and Mou will figure that out perhaps to the point we are in bad shape

Everyone responsible at Chelsea should take this as a wake up call. For a long long time our main opponents slipped when we slipped and we were grateful. Well, not today. Today shows that sh.t does happen and can happen again.

Just get our sh.t together and start winning games again!

Late goals we conceded against Arsenal, Brighton, Newcastle and Sheffield are so annoying now when every point matters. Spurs in the other hand got lucky with late goal against Wolves away and also with missed penalties by Watford and City today.

You're very close to going full Steven 'This does not fucking slip!' Gerrard.

Our squad ain't great, that we all know but don't tell me you wouldn't be moaning if we had signed Bergwijn and Fernandes.

If you're talking about option, then we have options too! It's just not being utilized properly but that's another debate. 

I wouldnt mind Bergwijn to be honest, he ran and ran and took his goal superbly. Yes I agree we need better but so far we have seen nothing. We need a spark to lift the team.

All that based on one performance?  

[Atomiswave 6,072]

The going fans need to fire the boys up at home games, especially vs manu and spurs. They need to feel, hear it. We have to give our all to overcome this last hurdle to hopefuly bring astue signing in.

Not only that, its cuz he has potential and can be deadly as we saw in tight spaces. He didnt cost a bomb either. They have somwhat refreshened their squad, a squad in dire need of help.

Well, it's only one game. Drinkwater didn't cost a bomb and had his small moments. Let's see in the long run.

Yup lets hope for the best.....as long as we get top 4 its all god, but only if the fuckers upstairs have the capacity to back the team.

Spurs won 37 from possible 75 points this season. Less than 50%. Based on everything we saw this season they will lose 15-20 points in the last 13 games. We will lose a lot of points as well. It will be just like last season fight till the end who suck less. 

[Vesper 28,864]

even if Shitty win out their next 6 (which they damn well may not, as they have Leicester, Arse, Manure and us at the Bridge)

this is more than likely the game where the dippers clinch

it could happen even earlier

the dippers next 6 are all against shit

Norwich, West Ham, Watford, Bournemouth, Everton (at Anfield, lolol), and then clincher is

if we beat Manure and then Spuds, I really like our chances, although somewhat less than before this Shitty cock-up versus the scum

[Laylabelle 9,359]

Yep 6 wins and its theirs..if not sooner. Then they can focus on Europe. Yipee. How boring lol. And lucky us...we go to Anfield on title day. Hopefully it wont end with contrasting emotions...if top 4 race is still on.
