Match Tottenham Hotspur v Chelscum - FA Cup Semi Final

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Chelsea always wanted to sit back you dumb cunt, having more possesion doesn't mean being the better side. Chelsea had us right where they wanted us and when it mattered our defence fucking bottled it


Ok now I'll say it

You're a complete fucking Dick

We were the better side and we're fucking robbed
 
When we find out how to win games when playing utter shit, we'll get there. Chelsea did that. Chelsea have been doing that for years.

We were the better team. You don't win ANYTHING by being the better team every game. As proven today. Conte left Hazard and Costa out of the starting line up and they still won. Hazard came on against tiring legs and ultimately won it.

Its gutting, its horrible that it has to happen again against Chelsea but we are getting there. You can blame the referee all you want but he didn't make a stupid slide tackle on Moses. He didn't decide to leave Hazard unmarked.

Lets go and win the league.
 
Im proud of the performance today. How the fuck we conceded 4 I dont know. When a holding midfielder scores a worldie like that to kill the game, then Courtois not letting that shot from Kane in (not that it would have changed anything) you know its not your day. The difference was the benches, something im such Poch will point out to Danny Boy later on.

Hold your heads up high boys
 
Fucking Chelsea cunts hate them with passion, what an undeserved result, I hope karma turns around and bites them and they lose to some shit defensive teams. Fucking pathetic club, pathetic fans and pathetic football.
 
I'm not mad at the team, but I do think Poch made a mistake in lining up Son instead of Davies at LWB. Goal #2 should never have happened- that's exactly the kind of thing that happens when you play non-defenders in defense. Son? What on earth were you thinking leaving your feet like that, man?

We might have leveled and got ahead if we didn't give away goal #2 so cheaply. But that is how it went down- the order of scoring forcing us to chase goals for far too long.

Other than that, goal #1 was down to a lapse of concentration- giving away possession cheaply and then not getting back, closing down, and rotating around. Goal #3 was a pretty poor set-piece- leaving Hazard unmarked outside the box is always gonna be a bad bet. Goal #4 was pretty similar- can't leave midfielders outside the box to hit uncontested strikes.

I think most players of ours played well today so can't be too upset about that. Definitely prefer to play defenders in defense at all times though- not sure why Poch thought we had to gamble with Son like that when Chelsea themselves line up so defensively... Ah well, on to the next one. On a positive note, I'm glad none of our players picked up a suspension- I was afraid Dembele might towards the end there.
