Just look at the pressing, energy, and athleticism that Spuds play with. Like Liverpool, they don't have world class players but have an elite coach with a well defined and similar philosophy that every single player buys in to.

I hope that with time Conte will be able to get us playing like that. Most teams can't deal with constant pressing. We'll need to replace players like Matic and Fabregas if we want to play like that, though.

I think my fears might be realized. And that was at the beginning of the season I thought Liverpool might win it because klopp is in his second season and he knows a bit more his team and the league. As to oppose to city and pep. 

I hope I'm wrong because I don't want to see Liverpool win it.

Once again it shows you must press teams that like to play possesion football instead of defending against them. Why letting City or barca even more space and time and basicaly invite them to run riot against you. Press them and attack their defence because defence is always the weakest in possesion based teams.

Also regarding Stones, I just dont see him as reliable CB yet. Way too physically weak for my liking.

The only clubs in the league capable of competing at the tempo of this Spurs-City match are Arsenal and Liverpool. The rest of the clubs are about 7 or 8 horse lengths behind and Chelsea are probably among the worst in terms of speed, anticipation, cohesion, etc.

That was kind of amazing. Spurs are years ahead of Chelsea.

Very Sad.
