When will they be here?
Just managed to watch the game now, haven't read the thread, but I'm fucking fuming. Same fucking shit again. Exact same script as every time we are in this position. I said it here earlier that we are naive against these cunts, and yet again they had our number. I'm sure plenty of people here think that we 'outplayed' them or whatever but you are just kidding yourself at this point. That match went 99% as Conte had planned; they had us exactly where they wanted most of the time. We could have been down 3 in the first 20 minutes alone. Having tame possession where you just pass it sideways and backwards just barely keep it all together, that's not dominating, it's waiting to get beaten.
Wanyama had an absolute nightmare, they clearly had him targeted, every time the ball went into him in the centre circle, there were 5 blue shirts on him and he gave the ball away a dozen times. Lloris should have done much better for their winner. Kane should have brought down Kante in that counter attack, if you are gonna pick up the yellow anyway then bring the fucker down, tear his shirt off if you have to.
I'm so fucking sick of these absolute putrid cunts having the last laugh. This was supposed to be the 'best time to play chelsea', but the way we go about it there is never a good time to play them, cause we always make a meal of it. The tactic of slow, negative possession is not gonna do the trick against a well-organised counter attacking team full of expensive top level players, so why do we keep fucking falling for it. Our passing isn't fast enough, it's not accurate enough to get through their numbers pressing, so why do we not switch it up and do something different in these big games??
Well 58 years old supported Tottenham all my life. Come on the internet to discuss my team for the first time and find supporting Tottenham is not how it use to be. Back in my day Tottenham supporters were men. Real men as every other club come to that, even Woolwich we didn't like each other but we were men all the same and still are. Here on this forum all I did was bump into a lot of sniveling little weasels, spoilt, pampered, sensitive. Hiding behind computer screens, sin bins and bans. A bunch of little mamby pambies. A generation spoilt used to having everything handed to them. Can't take criticism or a different opinion.
I fear for the world and you little pussies. Supporting my team on a forums not for me .

That wasn't an effective version though, we had chances. If it was effective we would have been shut out completely, not had a sniff. Pullis is better at it, Ranieri is better at it, Moyes is better as too is Maureen. We didn't score because we were unlucky not to, they scored because they were lucky to. NOTHING in that game supports that game went to plan for Conte other than they defended desperately for the majority of the game. Now think of a Mourinho game by contrast, he can nullify a game, neutralise attacks and still create high value opportunities. Conte wanted to use Morata, we nullified him, their plan wasn't working because of that, there is nothing successful about what Conte set out to do, other than some desperate last ditched defending and a dose of good fortune.The truth, as much as it hurts, is explained here. A really good article (as much as i hate to admit) from Gullit. We can make up any number of excuses for the loss, but sometimes we get out coached. Nothing wrong with that.

Well that was the media's take on it, and what's your point anyway?I didn't see a make shift chelsea team, I saw 7 regular players from last season, 3 new signings and Christensen back from loan. To add, they had 4/5 first choice players out banned and injured.

It was the first time that specific back 3 had ever played together - then again Conte is good defensively and was always going to set them up well. They made the field narrow and neutralised our (little) pace - the rest is history. Or am I missing the pointI didn't see a make shift chelsea team, I saw 7 regular players from last season, 3 new signings and Christensen back from loan. To add, they had 4/5 first choice players out banned and injured.

We had no right to get a draw at City last season, and the comeback against Swansea was equally unlikely. All it says is that our keeper made a bad error - nothing to do with 'mentality'.Bottom line for me is that Chelsea team yesterday had no right to win and they won.
It says infinitely more about us as a club.
MENTALITY.

It's up to Huddersfield, West Brom & Watford to stop Utd now!!We are still above Chelsea.
There was a young English bloke in the row in front of me with a Barcelona Spurs T-shirt on, with "Mes que un cock" (which made me laugh) on the back. You by any chance?That one really hurt. In a week that's seen some fucked up terrorist shit happen in my back yards, a row with my mrs and a family member at death's door, it would have been some nice relief to have been able to walk or of wembley without hearing several thousand racist cunts lauding it up over us. Special wanker badge to the cunt and his family in the flat overlooking wembley way bravely goading us with his Chelsea flag and wanker signs.
Fuck Chelsea and that murderer who scored for them today
