**** Chelsea v Tottenham Hotspur ****

[Kandi1977]

Nearly! Good try.

 

[Robbo]

Unless it's because Skipp/Moura are not fit enough for a full half of football, there's no excuse to not sub Sessegnon and Tanganga at half time.

 

[SteveAWOL]

Its' happened again. No surprise. It happens every bloody season at Chelsea

Of all the bogey teams to have, so sexy that we end up with another London club!

 

[fernadez]

We're gonna get battered if we start trying to press.

 

[Yiddo]

At this point i hope there are a few Chelsea broken legs, Mount, Rudiger snd Silva will be nice.

 

[Legohamster]

We fckd up this half, players and Conte, no excuses.

Dont think Conte has done anything wrong really

Skippy/Reg/Moura carrying a knock

Cant trust the three left out

this squad is very limited.

 

[paxtonwolf]

Advantage was played, and then pulls it back

 

[glasgowspur]

Peh, i don't get it, what does he do.

Squad is massively limited at it’s all the more concerning that the only business at present is us chasing the donkey Traore .

Christ after looking a half-chance of a draw at HT, this could end up 4-0

Tananga/ leaving him on was a huge fk up and costly

 

[Nexus1967]

Sickening thing is those 2 subs should have been made at half time not after 10 mins in and 2-0 down

 

[elltrev]

Silva using his arms to get in front for that header, but none of our lads dived like little clams, so it stands. fudge off.

Yup, and it hasn’t even got a mention. As sick as I am of seeing players go down with any contact, I’m at least as sick of refs and pundits being so fudging swayed by it.

 

[andybuk99]

Shame it wasn't bought back for ours agains Stevie

 

[alekaras]

Let's be honest, on the whole Chelsea deserves to win. Doesn't help we're playing with a makeshift team.

He can't trust them, doen't mean he's right - midfield 2 gets over run all the time in games like this and we have seen it in plenty of games ourselves, should have had a 3 man midfield.

New formation in a big away game v a top team, poor management

In hindsight, not addressing Doherty and Tangana being completely open against Hudson-A, was on Conte. It was clear before HT. Many on here said we needed to address that flank. We didn't address it, and two goals from that wing ensued.

Agree. A player not a yellow puts in a challenge to stop that run down the left that led to the first goal. Tanganga had to let him past or risk the red

Unless it's because Skipp/Moura are not fit enough for a full half of football, there's no excuse to not sub Sessegnon and Tanganga at half time.

I’m intrigued to hear why Tanganaga was left on for those 10 minutes as, barring a miracle, it’s cost us this match.

Hopefully he’s out on loan by the time the EPL resumes after winter break.

Every time a blue shirt falls to the ground its a free-kick
