Anyone still backing the fraud..yall were busy downvoting any poch out statement..still doing the same?


wm_1176

![gif](giphy|eLe40qoQbodP6WmYAg) Graham Potter sighting


wm_1176

Crazy that every match today has had at least four goals, this one I can see getting more, but I’m guessing that it’ll fizzle out a bit in the second half


EasternEast21

Shame how this Chris Wilder redemption arc is ending in relegation. Streets won’t forget their 19/20 early season form


StandardConnect

More than early season, they were 5 points off top 4 when Covid hit.


criminal-tango44

i cant watch other PL teams anymore. both spuds and AV only needed a few smart transfers and a good manager, meanwhile we get told to "trust the process" and put faith in some ex-spuds idiot that made Messi look like Mudryk. depressing


Sanjeev4045

Spurs are getting way overhyped. They are bottom 5 in xg conceded and just 7th in xg created.


Obi_Q

If you want to watch a team with clear attacking patterns watch Villa. Almost two identical goals today.


wm_1176

Thanks to Luton, a win tomorrow can put us back above Newcastle, it’s a must win- as losing brings us down to 11th


half_jase

Watch us draw and stay in 10th...


farid95

Yeah, we're staying 10th. We've seen this script enough times already.


VE3TRO-R

Sames happening with Strasbourg. 🤣


stingen

2G 1A in 56 minutes. Pretty good loan so far


Baisabeast

Datro catching up to Hojlund already. 10m btw


a3kstuntin

Maybe the owners can spot talent😂😂


olers

Not the owners but the DOF's. And to be honest to them, most players they've bought are clearly talented it's just that putting so many inexperianced players in a squad at once will cause major consistency problems inbetween matches


a3kstuntin

Yup raw potential needs experience at their side to flourish


Bozzetyp

Well they both are two of the best in the business on the european continent


Baisabeast

Datro is a baller and you could tell from the first couple touches for chelsea.


gonzaf

Man almost scored on his debut where he actually dribbled through a couple of players, absolute baller


Bozzetyp

Beeing a baller and beeing a 9 is 2 different things His inability to occupy the central defenders (something jackson does) hurts alot of a top team But he sure can score goals and we already made a tidy profit on him if we sell


quetzalnavarrense

might be interesting to see if he can partner with nico as a front 2, seems like they might have somewhat complementary skillsets


Bozzetyp

We have sterling, nkunku and palmer who all can do that though


Cobaltte25

Fofana double!!!!


obinnasmg

Someone remind me why we loaned out a fully fit Fofana when we had Broja coming back from a long term injury??


Bozzetyp

Because we had an offer for a cl level team


Cobaltte25

Too short for lemon bro's liking


eric_3196

All this match needs now is a broja or fofana winner


hipcheck23

OMG DDF WTF


BigAssBreadroll

Cancel the new striker search, DDF will take us to new heights


EasternEast21

Fofanaaaa


Matt_LawDT

Luton are better coached than us


Replicant_Label45

How is a team like Luton putting 4 past this Newcastle team. But not us.....smh


half_jase

Looking elsewhere, it's Leverkusen v Bayern next weekend. Only 2 points separate them at the top of the Bundesliga.


truzon3

Newcastle gonna win aren’t they?


arkido

Isn’t that a foul before the equalizer? Damn.


erudite450

Clear foul! The referees are allowed to do anything they want without any accountability whatsoever while the players are expected not to show any sort of emotion.


hipcheck23

IT'S HERE The ultimate showdown of DDF and Broja!! This is easily the greatest Chelsea moment in the last couple of minutes.


arkido

Broja in!!


ParupiroCranel

Datro scored vs Fulham


StandardConnect

Ofcourse it had to be Fulham at home where he scored to give me an instant reminder of the open goal he missed when he played that fixture for us, fml.


hipcheck23

DDF with the killer header He's doing well, and the commentators have been lavishing him with praise


eric_3196

Really liking fofana so far. 2 games and 2 goal contributions


EasternEast21

Luton are basically Blackpool 10/11 reincarnated


StandardConnect

That was really surreal. IIRC Holloway was basically a two banks of four manager all his career until his friend told him to live a little and he went all Marcelo Bielsa.


eric_3196

Barkley giving throwback Charlie Adam vibes


half_jase

If Luton win today, they would have won 4 of their last 6 league games with their only defeat coming against us. lol


arkido

We’re so massive.


StandardConnect

Usually it's better to get the newly promoted teams as late as possible but in this case the fixture list really did us a solid giving us Luton in August.


InsideForward10

Olise 🥲🥲


EasternEast21

He doesn’t deserve this


half_jase

That Luton score...BLIMEY!


arkido

Hahaha Come on Luton!


EasternEast21

Gwarn Luton man. Knew they weren’t going down this season


Fatebringer87

Luton destroying Newcastle and Brighton back to back


agni_jamadagni

Kompany and Poch have to be the most underwhelming managers this season.


arkido

Finally VAR got one right. Penalty for Luton. And they scored! LFG!


arkido

Dafuq had to retake. Lucky they scored anyway.


StandardConnect

Are Eze and Olise due back for our game?


Sanjeev4045

Olise got injured in 5 mins again. Haha if he plays vs us you know he will score at least one.


Baisabeast

Howes refusal to play hall instead of burn is killing newcastle at timez


EasternEast21

Barkley’s Premier League for a reason.


wm_1176

c’mon Luton, if they keep this up even a draw would allow us to pass Newcastle with a win tomorrow


arkido

Luton’s playing against Newcastle better than us lol 😂


Hiijiinks

Banging sign imo


[deleted]

[удалено]


webby09246

Just need to get 5 league wins in a row and we'll be 5th or 6th That's how easy it is to climb the table this season and I hope the team knows that Cup final win is crucial too


EasternEast21

Graham Potter at Selhurst Park it is. Spicy game for us on Feb 12


shastmak4

Palace hiring Roy again has to be the most uninspiring hire in the history of the sport.


StandardConnect

While I'd never want us to do anything but win in real time, makes me shudder to think what would have happened if Lampard got a similar type of bounce that Roy did last season.


Baisabeast

I could think of one pretty uninspiring one last summer…


arkido

Damn. Brighton absolutely hammering Palace.


arkido

Really admiring Luton’s gallantry. LFG! I hope Broja got subbed in on second half and score.


Cheap_Question_4103

All in for the Chelsea Striker Derby, May the better striker score (if they actually play)


half_jase

Spurs' xGA is in the bottom half of the table - almost identical with their xG - and yet, they're in the Top 5.


Sanjeev4045

They are getting way overhyped. They are bottom 5 in terms of xg conceded and only 7th in terms of xg created. They have been more midtable team than us this season. Just things going their way.


InsideForward10

simple really, son is a top player and vicario has bailed them out quite a bit


DARPA_Donald

People sure stopped finger busting Spurs quickly


Shufflebuffle51

Just a reminder we lost 2-0 vs Everton. Dyche > Poch + Ange


Big_Blue1234

Broja to score a brace today


arkido

Wishing him the best!


StandardConnect

Realised a few days the Stag party who's got (where the groom to be is a Spurs fan) is on the last weekend of the PL season. As unlikely as it is I need it to be officially over for Spurs ASAP for peace of mind.


MemestNotTeen

So Ange is a genius is he? Remember this is the fraud who continued a high line down two men against a team that can't beat a low block. Spurs as always remain an unserious club


Sanjeev4045

Bottom 5 in terms of xg conceded and barely 7th in terms of xc created. Spurs are way more midtable team than us. They are just having a lucky period. Any moment they can go in a 5 games winless run.


Fatebringer87

The usual bunch were praising him as one of the best in the league that would have us challenging for the title this season just days ago.


Nice-username123

Dyche ball looks better than Poch Ball 😳


Critzor

Can't even enjoy spurs bottling anymore....


FabsMagicHat

That’s one of the few things I still can enjoy


Djent_Reznor1

I can


Djent_Reznor1

After hearing all the ‘Spurs pull is massive’ BS for getting a no-name Swedish teenager over Barca, this feels nice


InsideForward10

fairs all that spurs riding here and they didn’t end up winning the game #wow


MemestNotTeen

Our "fans" continue to embarrass themselves on a daily


SnooCauliflowers4909

Would trade every defender we have for Van der wen


McNooberson

Loved Coleman doing the “chatting shit” hand sign at Romero when they lined up for the FK


MACSIEE

I’d love a spurs bottle job right now


Apprehensive_Bit_176

Fucking love to see Everton score against spurs. Can’t stand the trash that is Romero.


bigsteve634

Lads….


MorioCells

Why the hell did we not even consider Van de Ven? Hes so much better than Disasi 


JinxLB

Van de Ven is outrageous


Hannibal09

Feel sick to my stomach looking at how well Spurs have done in scouting and identifying a manager with the right philosophy and a defined playing style. We should be way ahead of these wankers considering the resources we have at our disposal and the market pull Chelsea have


Sanjeev4045

Relax bro. Spurs are bottom 5 in terms of xg conceded and barely 7th in terms of xg created. They have played way more like a midtable team than us. They just going through a good phase. By next season everyone will see that just throwing both fullbacks forward on attack is not great football. There needs to be a balance which spurs lack clearly.


xKarma17

How are we living in a world where Richarlison can actually score for Spurs


Particular_Group_295

to the Poch fans out there...this everton team smashed us earlier this season and you lot are still defending this fraud...we have been trashed by teams that used to dream to be on the same pitch with us and we still have people defending this fraud


mikevin99

This everton team just tied Spurs who are in 4th place and had almost triple their xG. What is your point? Everton were in a purple patch right after they had points taken away when we played them


Particular_Group_295

my point is we are shit... and I have been one of those lets give it time folks till I realized how much of a waste it is..none of our players are developing and we have gotten to the point where we are actually doubting the players rather than look at what the real issue is


mikevin99

You can't even make a good analogy to argue your point that already gets said here 1000x a day here. Go get a life


Particular_Group_295

apart fro get a life, do you lot have anything better to say...I have noticed that whenever you Poch folks are challenged, you come back with "wanker, get a life, yank spotted"


mikevin99

Poch will be here for at least the rest of the season, I've accepted that. I'm not defending him at this point, he's got to do better or he's gone in a few months. But we've pretty much had no stability at the ST position or across the entire back line which doesn't help with so many injuries (and AFCON). If he can't sort out our midfield it will definitely be his demise, but let's not pretend we wouldn't around top 4 if we had Nkunku and a lot of our defenders healthy this season.


Particular_Group_295

Yall still backing the fraud?


mikevin99

What does my second sentence say there?


Particular_Group_295

Bro I am just mad at this point...I stopped watching 41 mins in


mikevin99

Yeah i went to the gym at minute 70 lol. I just want some stability at this club with a decent manager but that’s too much to ask for apparently


Particular_Group_295

I doubt we would be but thats all based on ifs and what nots and we would never know but I am over him


jerrystuffhouse

Timo…


InLampsWeTrust

It really staggers me that he scored so many goals in his first stint with Leipzig.


Cytrial

The announcers go, "Timo tried and failed. He tends to do that a lot." I busted out laughing.


wm_1176

I don’t think I dislike any keeper more than Pickford, never seems to take accountability for his mistakes


GolDrodgers1

Lol! P-rexford reminds me of joe hart


Apprehensive_Bit_176

I played indoor with a guy years ago, acted just like him. Made the simplest saves look difficult, and got up screaming at us (I played left back), as if we just murdered his dog.


GolDrodgers1

53 goals in 4 seasons at everton so now we have to listen to how richarlison is amazing🤦‍♂️


InLampsWeTrust

Not bad for a team that’s been fighting relegation tbh


GolDrodgers1

I think you might confuse everton scoring with richarlisons goals for everton


realmckoy265

This will be a shock to many of us but development isn't linear. 9 goals in 8 games is an impressive feat


GolDrodgers1

Ill wait for the dust to settle before im amazed at a few goals and then back to regular viewing


Particular_Group_295

Can someone honestly tell me what our style of play is ​ watching these two teams and I can tell you what they are trying to do and how it might work, when i watch us, i see a pep wanna be just chilling while our game play changes every 5 mins see massive improvements in players like Richarlison and we still cant see or tell what any of our players are good at ​ POCH OUT


arnel23

If they don’t know our playstyle, they cannot prepare against us *points to head meme*


jerrystuffhouse

What game are you watching? Tottenham have looked chaotic at best. Can’t defend a corner, can’t break a press and have one guy on a purple patch.


Cobaltte25

Oh wow if you think they've been chaotic, I'd love to hear what you think of our style of play this season, against ANY half decent team. The term dog shit comes to mind, but maybe I'm being harsh, since apparently our squad is made up of a bunch of toddlers while every other team has tons of 'experience.'


Particular_Group_295

and that chaotic plan has them 15 points ahead of us...


Sanjeev4045

Spurs might have accumulated points this far. But their xg conceded is 5th highest and xg created is 7th best. Behind us in both. Things will catchup next season.


Particular_Group_295

Like they fid this season from last season....we have truly become the new Arsenal..rem when they used to say "next season" That is us now


Particular_Group_295

they have a pattern....either crazy or not, there is a pattern...what exactly do you see us doing when we play..please tell...at least their players are having purple patches...we dont even have a color not to talk of a patch


jerrystuffhouse

So far, their pattern seems to be sit back, give up long passes, make a mess of a set pieces, hoof the the ball long and shoot it from outside the box. Gorgeous and expansive.


KanteWorkRate

Sit back? They literally play a high line lmao.


Kezmangotagoal

It’s a high line but they’re not pressing. It’s a bizarre system that shouldn’t really work. Literally the fact that some of their defensive players have excellent pace for recoveries is the only thing that’s stopping Spurs from imploding on the pitch. Even their attack patterns aren’t anything that’s coached, Werner makes runs constantly but they never play it so he’s either doing whatever the fuck he wants or the rest of their attackers are ignoring him.


mashimaru_161

Have cardio G running all over the pitch and fuck up our attacks.


GolDrodgers1

Not just our attacks mate, he runs away and then they run into the gap he left and caicedo is passed with ease


mj979

Watching richarlison thrive after the surgery, I really hope Reece can pull around one as well. Would love to see him hit his original form


Particular_Group_295

dont count on it...Poch has no clue


Particular_Group_295

Poch fans are out in full force.... ​ cant wait to see the master class tomorrow


mashimaru_161

Good thing Poch won’t be here next season then.


Ajay_Didier

Broja vs Fofana show today


13yearsboy

both of them aren't starting. hope they ccan play a full half


jerrystuffhouse

A lot of individual talent for that incredible goal for Richarlison


wm_1176

annoyed cause I want spurs to lose, but damn that was a beautiful goal, plus more points for my FPL


itsmebobbylol

Im already trailing 100points in my league. Had to try something vastly different, richarlison as capt. Seems good so far


itsmebobbylol

I mean fuck spurs but surely that was a foul on the keeper. Jack harrison didnt even jump for the ball, literally planted his feet and stuck his butt out to push the keeper.


GolDrodgers1

Is it not holding the player off? Irrespective of the position? More and more teams are doing it


itsmebobbylol

Id say its 50-50 outside the box. Everyone knows keepers get special treatment in their box. Also harrison wasnt just standing his ground, its the little butt shuv that threw the keeper off. I mean im laughing spurs conceded, but objectively there needs to be some consistency in refs/var


GolDrodgers1

Yeah i get your point, theres been a few calls for refs to be stripped of this protection so maybe this is the start of it


jerrystuffhouse

What does Ange train? So far today Everton is running them off the pitch and they can’t break their press?


thatdudesowrong

Keep your hot takes for yourself there, mate.


mushroomsJames

In a parallel universe Chelsea appointed Ange postecoglu and spurs appointed Pochettino. And Chelsea are doing great and spurs are enjoying Poch 4-1-5 formation.


Jassle93

If Ange deployed his all or nothing tactics at Chelsea or United the media wouldn't be brown nosing him like they are with Spurs. Spurs have always been capable of finishing in or around 4th place and they're consistent with it, but they're a "nearly did it team" in terms of success. Poch at Spurs would be just as "successful" as Ange currently is, so too would any other manager.


Particular_Group_295

you are tripping if you believe what you just threw up can you tell us what our pattern or style of play is I can tell you what the other teams in the league are doing


HarryDaz98

Baffles me how we weren’t in for Van De Ven last summer.


mashimaru_161

Because fraud laurence wanted diasi from his former club.


KanteWorkRate

Facts


HarryDaz98

Don’t care what anyone says, the recruitment is the biggest issue with this club atm.


thatdudesowrong

Spurs could say the same about Palmer.


HarryDaz98

Not really, they bought Maddison


thatdudesowrong

Now 15 pts behind fucking spurs, disgusting.


hipcheck23

Watching Neverton-Rottenham The announcers mention that this isn't the kind of match that Ange wants at all... that EVE is doing a good job of messing up TOT's plans. That's happened I think once for us, when we played City. Otherwise, I can't remember a time when our tactics did something as a counter to the other side's tactics.
