Get the f**k in! Those cnuts throwing rubbish to out players will be in tears now. I hope that their club get a fine and a ban for throwing things, it was paper sh*t but could have been anything the scum got hold of. A nice come back to send them back home with a lesson. f**k them.

The commentators referred to it as 'litter' - but had that been Chelsea fans doing that they would have been talking about 'missiles'.

Another classic game v Spurs and another 3 points!

Such a bad start I feared the worst but always felt we would cause them problems and score, despite Jackson playing up front. So poor for Cucurella to have wrong boots on and so poor that we have to play Sanchez and Badiashille, but despite all those negatives, very proud of the team for coming back and dominating for the large part.

Can't really fault Taylor today but every thankful that VAR didn't ask him to look at Caicedo tackle as he wouldn't have hesitated in producing the red card.

Great weekend - Up The Chels!!

Think Neto + Madueke would’ve been the best option now knowing Spurs’ lineup

big game for Sancho.

It was a big game from Sancho and now we have some real options.  We have some really good attacking options. Pedro. Madueke. Palmer. Sancho. Jackson. . . .Nkunku. AND hopefully Mr. Felix can do something soon.  

 
I think we have to give some real credit to our manager Enzo.  He is rotating players well and he is trying to include as much quality as possible. He changed things for the second half today and that needed to be done - even though Lavia was having a good game.

 
29 minutes ago, just said:

Well, certainly against Bolton Wanderers at home in 1978. I was there. Sam Allardyce scored our winner. Clive "honesty it came loose at the side" Walker led a famous come back. Optimism even in the darkest days. Never say never axman.

Here it is in 70's 4K high definition.




 
Well that was good. And it was 4-1 in my world as I missed the first quarter of an hour.

It was slightly in that vain again where I think we played really well and deserved to win, and could have won by even more, but we still managed to chuck in a decent bit of sloppy/doggy football and make it a little stressful.

I still don’t think we’re able to win the league, but top four looks almost a given.

A doth my cap to Maresca because I assumed that we were in for more of the same, and maybe even duller, but we’ve been a goal scoring machine and he’s absolutely transformed our two 105 million pound midfielders. They’ve gone from Bakayoko to Ballack level performances.

 
We can win the league. Why not? I don’t rate Liverpool as highly as their points total suggests and City and Arsenal levels have dropped compared to the two seasons before.

I think it will be a big transfer window for all 4 teams. Getting the right player in can easily propel any of the top4 to the title. If we only sign one player it has to be a CB. Murillo at Forest for me as he has PL experience. 
 

If I could be greedy then a keeper too but Jorgensen deserves a crack as first choice.

Whether Maresca believes it or not we are definitely in the race.

 
At 2 0 down I hadn't for a second given up hope.  My three main thoughts being 

1. Did I think we could best them by 2 or 3 goals at kick off? Yes

2. So we can do that in 80 minutes

3. It's Spurs, they are total f**knuggets.

Maresca has done a great job instilling some character and fight onto a squad of players that previously looked like they last met each other at a blind dinner experience.

Yes Sanchez continues to disappoint and we still concede soft goals but everyone sees that so it will be on Maresca's 'to do' list

And yes Jackson looks like a striker based on stats but a hat stand based on performance.

But compared to where we were last season, and where I thought we would be by now this season, it's been a great opening 4 months of the season.

We do need better back up defenders though.

The step down from fofana to Badiashile is huge, and to Tosin and Disasi too.

Agree. I’d go one step further, albeit a tad harsh as returning from injury and youth is a factor, but none of the CBs really fill me with confidence. They’re growing though - just expect a little more command from Levi and Wes as a starting pair 

 
Missed a cracking game by the sound of it.... 

Will look forward to watching the replay and totalling up the damage. @justseemed to think mods retirement fund was quids in from another hopeless donkey performance. 

Will watch and assess....unless @Valerieor @Simplymo want to do the honours?

But it's late now - I am pissed and hoarse from singing (post race concert was Muse tonight) - and I have a big day with a visitor tomorrow.... so night night. xoxo
