GHod I fudging hate losing to those clams more than anyone. Just had to go for a run to clear the anger.
But fudge it, we had our top 3 goalscorers out and our 4th highest goalscorer only fit enough for the bench. And had to play the 'home' leg at Wembley. And might well have won it anyway if the away goals rule hadn't changed this very season.
Indeed, I'd like to have seen the game if we'd had Kane, Son, Alli and Moura fully fit, and Chelsea had been without Giroud, Morata, Hazard and Pedro. Would have fudging smashed them.
But of course that won't be the narrative - it will be about Spurs falling at the last hurdle again, and being perrenial bottlers. I for one will be boycotting all football journalism, punditry and other fans for a week, and would strongly urge others to do the same. Why bother listening to their banal, simple-minded tribalist flimflam when we know that we haven't bought success like City and Chelsea, and that when we do have it next season - finally back home in our brand new stadium, without the WC hangover and with 1 or 2 new signings - it will be all the fudging sweeter.
