I'm not going to criticise my team after the clear provocation on and off the pitch.

Alli's little dig at the West Brom player got plenty criticism. I could be idyllic and lay into the Spurs players....but that would be too easy for what has been a Spurs v everyone else season. I've got a lot of respect for the Spurs team and it is no coincidence they reacted the way they did with the gamesmanship leading up to the game.

It was a one off against Chelsea...that's fine with me.

When you criticise your team for lacking class and professionalism in their attitude leading up to the game..then I'll criticise my team for trying to break their legs....in the mean time, they asked for it and I can understand the retaliation.

Who did that then?
Hazard, saying he wanted to win the game lacks professionalism? <laugh>

I'm not getting into it...trying to prove your point to you...but you and I know, obviously so did the players. You can spin it all you want. Your players got what they asked for. Come on your a bunch of 'ard bastards...Costa can handle it.

lol

And you didnt get what you asked for.
You failed miserably, you failed to win the game, will get raped with FA charges and half your team will face match bans.
Oh and you failed to win the title.

Hope Arsenal overtake you for second too <ok>

Bodi, at the end of the day it'll all have been worth it.

That match will go down as the night that Spurs put Costa back in his box, and let that wimp Hazard know that he'd do best keeping his trap shut next time he plays the mighty Spurs.

I'd love to know how hard Dembele tanked Costa in the tunnel, after the match.

I think Hazard will remember the game differently! That was some goal!

<laugh> Look at all these ****ing hipsters crying blasphemy against football.

**** off..glad Costa got his arse handed to him. He's a thug and a coward, picks his fights carefully but screwed up last night.

But he played a blinder, scored and did exactly what he said he would do, stop you winning the title! <laugh>
The match will go down as how NOT to handle a big match under pressure. Spurs buckled and lost the title, simple as.
 
Bodanki said:
Not quite sure how the terms Hipster applies.
But you are right in a way.
The only telling thing from this is how the Spurs fans, rather than criticise their team, as any sane person would, are choosing to try defend their team against the indefensible.
You cannot defend a discipline performance like that.
I expect people not to have any sympathy for Costa, with his track record, but Fabregas, Ivanovic, Willian, Pedro and Hazard were booted up and down the pitch. (Though I did agree that the stamp on Fabs hand DID look accidental).
Was a pathetic showing from a team who were trying to play for the right to be champions.

Bodi, please don't force us to delve back into the hefty annuls of CFC shame. Most successful sides have used the dark art of winning dirty to achieve their success. What you are seeing is not a case of Spurs fans glorifying in violence, but a rejoicing that this very Spurs side is not going to take the kind of sh1t that previous Spurs sides did.

I can fully understand why that fact will upset a lot of rival fans.

Cant wait to see Stoke kick you all round the pitch and see what Spurs fans reaction will be. Will they go all "Stoke are just thugs and kick us coz we play pretty football" or as they are now hard will it be "they kicked us so we kicked them, but they are still thugs"

Costa is a wind up merchant as we all know but I can't remember him talking to all 9 players that got booked and he never went near Vorm.
 
'What a game that was last night,' Terry wrote on Instagram on Tuesday morning. 'Great character from the players to come back from 2-0 down.

'The atmosphere was incredible and we know how much that result means to you supporters. 27 years [HASHTAG]#notonmyshift[/HASHTAG].'

Costa got what he deserved last night, absolutely no doubting that. Too many players have pussied away from him and let him give the impression to everyone that he's some kind of hard-man enforcer. Well, our Dembele put an end to that forever, and showed the footballing World that the slimey grease-bag is nothing more than a cowardly bully. Dembele treated him like his bitch, and then, later, in the tunnel, when Costa tried to give it large, Dembele took him apart.

I strongly suspect that the next meeting between these two teams is going to be a far more muted affair, when Chelsea give us far, far more respect.

It was an ugly second half of football, to be sure, but I think this game was as much about how we set ourselves out at the Bridge in future games as it was about anything else. This Spurs side not only has the skill to challenge at the top next season, but we've proven that we have the fighting steele, too. All the tops of the past - Liverpool, Leeds, United - they've all been able to play dirty and ugly when it's been needed.

... Vardy managed to do that much earlier this season ... but he also took the ball in the process... far more acceptable than resorting to eye-gouging which, quite frankly, is utterly deplorable ......... (what the clip doesn't show is Diego deciding not to prolong the 'discussion' with Vards as he notices Big Wes and Huuuuuuuuuuuth coming to join the 'debate' in his peripheral vision <laugh> )

HOOOOF HOOOOF HOOOOF HOOOOF

Do you guys chant that during matches like we did?
 
Costa can be a prick. But dembele should be handed a lengthy ban as they do in rugby for eye gouging. Completely cowardly and disgraceful behaviour. If the FA have got any balls they'll ban dembele, Lamela and walker for their pussy boy antics

Dembele had Costa pinned up against the tunnel wall, and had to be restrained, so I doubt very much that he'd take your "coward" jibe very kindly, Pixie. But you carry on, my brave Keyboard Warrior!

As for Lamela and Walker, I cannot see that there is anything in what they did that would warrant retrospective bans.

But even if all three get bans - on top of the Alli ban - I still think we have the squad to beat either or both of Saints and Toon, to clinch 2nd spot.

What do you reckon?
