****OMT*****Tottenham Hotspur vs. Chelsea, Saturday 8th March 5:30pm

I don't see that at all, we've played most of the game in their half!

With the forward players pulling wide (where there's always natural space against Chelsea) and causing little/no threat.

 

[Rossi22]

Seriously? Walker is playing there???

To be honest, he's been ahead of Lennon and Ade at times, he's tucked in quite a bit too.

 

[Millsy_Yiddo]

Missed the half sounds like apart from a terrible first 5 mins it went quite well?

What is our formation and who is playing where and whose playing well?

Everyone's doing pretty well bar Dawson in the first 5 minutes where he was at fault for 2 of the 3 best chances Chelsea have had, and Siggurdsen who may as well be sitting here with me in my living room shouting at the tv.

Walkers made a few wrong decisions at key moments too but is doing ok

 

[Hootnow]

Did you not see where he gave the ball away and they countered and should've really tested Lloris, he does this extremely often. Guy isn't close to ready yet.

Yes I did. I believe that was one of 2 or 3 times he gave the ball away in that half though, better than any of our players except Lennon.

Not saying he is ready either but let's not engage in pointless hyperbole

 

[King of Norway]

Come on you spurs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Armchair Expert]

Maybe a master plan from Mourinho

the walker thing is working quite well. hazard has been invisible and chelsea dont appear to like lennon and walker hounding them. if we win the ball back high up the pitch at any point we could be in business.

 

[diego_maradona]

Bloody hell Dawson, wtf was he doing there at the beginning?

 

[Papercut]

Again I'm scratching my head at why we didn't invest in a left back...

 

[Kingdawson]

Thanks. I just spat my tea over myself !

Watch the first half over.,..count all the times he attempts a cross field ball....count how many are successful.....i bet it's more than half.

 

[paxtonwolf]

Decent first half. I would absolutely saw somebodys arm off for this scoreline at FT though.

Mourinho will change his tactics at HT though, much like the home match v us

Stick Andros in there too and could be fun, who else is a set piece player apart from Siggi?

 

[Destroy All Gooners]

Still expecting Chelsea to get some kind of flukey break in this

 

[Kingdawson]

**** Oscar for Lampard. They're gonna move Ramires in the middle.

 

[Hootnow]

Mourinho will make some changes and find even more holes (and almost certainly win unfortunately) but we're doing ok so far. Need to start creating a bit more.

 

[Baleforce]

Jose getting serous now, bringing his best player on.

 

[Gazza Dazzla]

With the forward players pulling wide (where there's always natural space against Chelsea) and causing little/no threat.

We've been the better side and created just as many chances as Chelsea so I guess it's working, unless Jose has set his side out not to win as well?

 

[Yermiyahu]

Not sure what to think regarding the lineup. We seemed to do OK during the first half. The addition of Oscar worries me though

 

[Mumorn]

that would have been special from vert

 

[JerusalemMan]

Walker can have a go.
Though I appreciate that's not the same thing.

 

[Mumorn]

Ramires really needs to hit the gym, on the floor every single time. then moans about it.
