****Tottenham Hotspur v Chelsea****

[thfcsteff]

Chelski have showed up for the cup final and the ref is having a birthday that he only wants to invite our players to. Expect some Chelski cynicism to emerge second-half. Mason is doing fine, we are just used to Alli and we are missing his drive and snap, but generally not too worried there. They have targeted Eriksen on the ball, see him as a bit softer methinks. Dumbbell's been great. I can see Lamela having a very important contribution here, and the other thing is that fudging wind hasn't helped. Overall we look decent all-told; let's see if Chelski run out of puff in the last 20 mins. My feeling is yes, Lamela and NJie, could be big...

Think the crowd must be tired too..

 

[thfcsteff]

If Chel53a sit deep N'Jie's influence will not be significant

If they start to get tired I think we could see him.

Maybe. I really rate him, I just think that he plays better when he can get in behind the opposition defence. His pace is a key attribute.

 

[King of Norway]

COME ON YOU SPURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Always the way when a little club from the other end of the table come to a bigger team near the top. We're expected to win, so the pressure's on.

 

[We are Tottenham]

Shocked by the fans ....get behind the fudging Team!

 

[scaramanga]

Falling for every dive.

 

[scaramanga]

Look how excited the ref got when Verts went in.

 

[Eriktheviking]

This ref is comedy gold. But we do keep giving him the opportunity to get his cards out

 

[Jordinho]

Can we stop committing these ridiculous fouls please?

 

[scaramanga]

Might have to sub off all 3 on yellows. The ref's like an excitable little Chelsea puppy going around humping their legs.

Mason injured yet again

 

[scaramanga]

Mason injured yet again

Forced us into the best team we can play.

Forced us into the best team we can play.

I don't agree with that. At least Mason was walking down the tunnel un-aided

 

[DubaiSpur]

Get Davies on for Rose. I'm uncomfortable with both left-sided defenders being on yellows with the ref this f*cking biased.

Edit: damn, he isn't on the bench.

 

[scaramanga]

Ref's such a brickclam

 

[Jordinho]

Vertonghen!

*shakes fist*

 

[SteveAWOL]

Finally a Chav gets booked!
