Match Day Thread Tottenham Hotspur v Chelsea

'In this great future, you can't forget your past, so dry your tears I say' Robert Nesta Marley

 

Saw this earlier and when I stopped laughing 2 hours later I remembered who we are playing today.....

Chelsea are targeting Tottenham's Argentine boss Mauricio Pochettino, 46, to replace the 48-year-old Italian if he fails to see out the final year of his contract. (Sun)

 

So on that basis, we’ll lose again today

 

The match hasn't been played yet, so it could be part of our great future, be positive.

 

We live in hope.....

 

In public he can be meh.

Providing in private he has told the squad that
this game is far more 'must not lose' for them
than it is for us, and set the tactics accordingly.

 

“I didn’t see him, I was just walking”.

 

A little inspiration for this afternoon...

 

Kane on the bench

 

Still no Alderweireld.

 

Hmm ...

 

watch Morata have his best game of the season

 

Line up as pretty much expected.
Alderweireld is gone, I hate so say. Definitely planning for life without him.

 

Nailed on.......

 

And Caballero no doubt!

 

I would say Kante as well, but he looked very good in their last game too, after not hitting the heights of last season

 

Defence has been functioning as usual
without him. If he is fit then, no game against
either of the Mancs this month will confirm it.

 

You don't think it's confirmed already?

 

No.
The Spurs physios are far more demanding
of player fitness than others.

 

Chelsea's bench is pretty poor today. Our is much stronger.
Please please please please Spurs end this stamford bridge hoodoo today.
