Match fred: Chelski (a) - The Jimmy Greaves derby

[villainousT]

Those long shots from Bale today... smh

 

[Smoked Salmon]

Bale's been pony cpmpared top earlier in the season.

 

[spooky]

Bale is out of form. Give him a break. Not his fault he keeps getting selected.

Re: the containment tactic today - not sure Spurs have the confidence to attack, hence the sitting back and countering.

 

[Benjoss]

Those long shots from Bale today... smh

He doesn't look like scoring them and they almost seem a bit desperate.

 

[soups]

Hmmmm... You know that luck we're missing?

ask and ye shall receive

 

[Raitei]

Well, that was lucky..

Saha on for....?

 

[Someareteeth]

Seems like we always lose these type games -- late, chippy and desperate.

 

[Someareteeth]

Saha for VDV and Livermore for Sandro.

 

[Raitei]

442?

Jake to the right, Saha up front?

 

[Abbey Yid]

Livermore on for Sandro.

Leave me alone, I just want to go and cry.

 

[linnet_spur]

Are we ever going to win at Stamford Bridge again?

Chance after chance after chance missed.

 

[Kotten]

We can't buy a goal today can we?

 

[Someareteeth]

We can't buy a goal today can we?

Were that possible we'd bid just a bit less than Chelsea for Goal.

 

[HyNdZee]

Played well, should have won... need Villa to do us a favour now!

 

[S.L.R]

Alright, we didn't win, but in that second half we played well, deserved to win it. COYS.

 

[Schoolboy'sOwnStuff]

Wouldn't say SHOULD have won, but could have won. Good signs. Resilient and defended pretty well. Bodes well for the last few games.

 

[Raitei]

It wasn't terrible.. no, we didn't win, but we keep 4th by 5 points in a game most had down as a loss. Also, set piece delivery wasn't awful today

 

[docomospur]

Hopefully, that 2nd half gives the lads a shot of confidence.

Note to Harry - Blind alley Bale to stay on the left, please, with the option to cut in.

 

[pdxspur]

Yet another game tat felt like we should win but didn't. Ill take this though a point at Stamford Bridge is never anything to turn your nose up at, even this year. Also it felt like we ended that game surging rather than holding on for dear life and I feel like this may actually carry over.

 

[1882]

Pride restored... one of the more solid away-at-Stamford-Bridge performances...
was more attacking than 'Park the Bus' but not as cavalier as going 3-1 up in the cup only to end up with a draw...

AND SO NOW THE 8 MATCH WINNING RUN CAN BEGIN...

Gotta say, the Sky assumption that ArseAnal will beat Villa now and open up a 3 point gap is presumptuous to say the least... even though they probably will and prove them right, if someone touted US for the win before we'd kicked off, I'd be more than a tad nervous... then again, I'm no gooner, I don't think they do pre-match nerves do they? always confident of the victory... just a case of how many, huh?
