For sure, our failings in front of goal is our own fault, we should have been out of sight but we still scored enough goals to legitimately win the game and that’s what’s so frustrating.

You just have to suck it up and move on though. I think Rudiger should have seen red in the CL final for his assault on KDB. At least you’ve got 36 more games to play…
 
BBC blowing smoke up the chavs arses I see. A home draw with Spurs yet apparently they’re a ‘force to be reckoned with’.

No criticism of their spend on players like we get, but of course it’s allowed with impunity if your owner is American isn’t it.

I assume now the rags are shit, the media fan boys are all backing these fucking chav pricks now.
 
I don't know how Chelsea didn't get all three points today they were by far the better side. Tottenham with a typical Conte performance of a smash and grab to get points on the board. The foul on Havertz at 1-0 was incredibly bad by the official and I mean the linesman he can't miss it, As much as I hate Taylor looking at his view it did look like Bentancur had got the ball first.

Chelsea should have really seen the game out at 2-1 when James scored you'd expect them to be able to see it out because they are very well drilled, They should themselves on the foot twice with the goals they conceded.

The big opportunity for Chelsea to completely kill the game was the Sterlind miss when he should have made it 2-0 I he had scored that the game was over.

Chelsea are going to really struggle this season for goals I reckon.
 
I am intrigued by this Anthony Taylor has got in in for Chelsea idea. By a country mile the worst and most openly bias referring performance I have ever seen was Taylor at the Etihad, single handedly winning the game for Chelsea against us. How times have changed.

I don't know whether he's biased against us. I tend to think this sort of thing is just irrational fan conspiracies. We tend to just remember the bad ones against our teams and completely forget or ignore all the good ones that go for us. Someone did a compilation of all the high profile games he's cost Chelsea, including a weird decision in a game vs Spurs that was overturned by VAR (I think) and on that evidence it looked damning, but then someone else posted a couple of games where he was the red, where the decisions went in Chelsea's favour, which then reaffirmed my view that refs are just bad refs but incompetence is not a bias.

I only watched first half but thought you were back to the form you had a couple of seasons ago. Koulibale looks a beast. Thought Kante was more like his old self. Raheem doing what Raheem does too. Top 4 I think.

I was very impressed with us yesterday, especially the first half. Great intensity, and very good football. I think we outplayed Spurs for 95% of that game, and of course ref mistake aside, we would have won that game.

If there is any truth in the rumour that Chelsea are interested in Aubameyang then it doesn't bode well for Chelsea in my opinion. Who the hell thinks he is even worth considering?

I don't actually do not mind him at all, on a cheap deal and on a short term contract.

As Tuchel said, he worked with him for years, has kept in touch and never had a problem with his conduct.

The extent of his trouble making seems to be poor timekeeping.

I think he fell out with Arteta, and a lot of the problems at Arsenal stemmed from that, but yeah I suppose he's not the easiest player to have in a dressing room, but I think you also need a strong dressing room to keep any shenanigans in check, and I think we have that whereas Arsenal didn't.
