Wasn't he also the one that could have (I would have been angry if we didn't get it) given a penalty to Liverpool at Anfield for a handball against Cahill?

Refs are just inconsistent, not biased. I think Anthony Taylor is one of the least bad ones. 

 
I think Wembley will suit our passing game to a T. With our pace and if we move the ball quickly then we will really put Spuds under pressure. We will create loads and need to be more clinical than we were at the Lane, they will really fancy their chances so I think they will have a real go on the back of the 5-3 and that could be their downfall.

Harry K is their threat along with Erikson, quality players and must be respected. WE are better player fpr player on our day so we need to make sure we turn up.

Keep The Faith

 
Gutted that I missed out on even trying for tickets by 1 measly, rotten point!

The Lloris situation is interesting.

Possibly the best keeper in the league this season and their captain I believe.

He hasn't played in any of the preceding rounds.

If they stick with their reserve keeper for this one we could be quids in.

Difficult decision for Pochettino.

We know what Jose would do ..

Play his best keeper.

They'll almost certainly play Lloris. Think City had a similar situation a few years ago in the FA cup where they'd played Pantilimon in every previous round, but brought Hart back in for the final. 

Let's hope Lloris puts in a similar performance to the one he put in at the Bridge in December...

 
The only certainty is the Met Police will be cancelling all leave for this one.

 
Will be a tough one for sure.

Spuds are in good form (Dipper result excluded) and they gave us a real going over at New Year. However against Liverpool their midfield and back line were very iffy and I think if we can pressure them we will get all sorts of joy.

What we can’t do is panic like we did at New Year, we made so many rookie mistakes leaving space everywhere, in a way I hope Zouma plays beside Terry as Cahill tends to back off and isn’t the best when chasing down a defender unlike Zouma.

Kane is a worry, he’s on fire and we will need to keep an eye on his movement and shots which he seems to take at will.

I hope we want this as much as they will, a cup win would be a huge confidence booster for the run in.

 
We didn't help ourselves against Spuds at WHL.

We could have avoided all five of their goals. http://www.theshedend.com/topic/27219-tottenham-vs-chelsea-pl-010115-ko-1730-gmt/?p=936289

2 or 3 of those goals we conceded simply came from losing the ball in the midfield and leaving our back line exposed to quick counters.

They will certainly concentrate their attack down our right flank, last time Ivanovic and Cahill were targeted and had terrible games.

I think Zouma will come in for Cahill, Kane v Zouma makes me feel a bit more confident than Cahill v Kane.

Matic needs to sit and hold position in front of our CB's and not get tempted into rushing into midfield to make challenges, spuds will look for him doing this and try to get the ball in behind him, it seemed to be a tactic they were trying to persist with.

Starve them to 33% possession and we win.

Ivans a tough one.

He really does get exposed on the right hand side against teams who attack down the flanks.

Trouble is he's far too important in advanced positions and set plays to replaced, plus he's a warrior and gives 110%.

We need to stay compact and diciplined this time around and maybe we will see extra cover being provided since we crumbled last time around?

 
We owe them an absolute kicking, complete domination, pure humiliation.

I want to see Vertonghen and Kane on their knees, in total awe of Chelsea's superiority. I want us to make their children cry.

This is what I see when I look into Diego's eyes.

Shag their women and pinch their beers ?

 
They really aren't that good. Kane has been excellent lately and Eriksen has his moments, but really the likes of Chali, Lamela, Dembele, Bentaleb and Mason have been w**k whenever i've watched them.

I think Jose will know exactly why we got done at WHL and how to stop it happening again, and I think we'll do them as we did at the Bridge.

I hope Vertonghen is on Costa, love seeing that muppet get humiliated.

 
This game is probably why Zouma has been getting all the minutes.

We're not going to lose this.

 
All our players have been there, done that, got the t-shirt when it comes to cup finals....Spurs haven't.

That's the key for me, experience.

Spurs aren't the mugs they have been over recent years, but as long we don't defend like Sunday leaguers we'll win this.

Hope Zouma starts to counter Kane's pace.

I wouldn't go that far. i'll be happy with normal service being resumed, so I'll settle for a 4-0, a 6-1, or, as it's at Wembley, a 5-1, complete with fire drill.
