Spuds haven't done the double on us in the league since 1971, that's nearly 50 years (48). Looking at the lineups and the anticipated CFC tactics does anyone expect  that stat to hold by final whistle ?

Personally think well be very lucky if it does.

 

Agreed. Despite their poor performance at the weekend I reckon Spurs go into this match as favorites. I hope to be proven wrong.

First goal is so important, if they get it I can't see us scoring 2.

Fixed that for you Ernie

[carrickblue]

I haven't a clue what's going to happen!

[mojo]

why so stubborn ffs?  my expectations just went down the toillet.

[RickUK]

Watch now, we will win 4-0 and I will be getting a raging stiffy, or "tottenham will never win at the Bridge again!" in bold capital letters along my manhood

Did I come to the right place for the meltdown?

Disappointed with the lineup.

CHO for Pedro
RLC for Kovacic
Christensen for Luiz

I can live with Emerson getting a breather, he played about 200 minutes in the last 7 days. Pedro hasn't scored in almost 2 months. And the Geezer has to be a little gassed after Sunday's game.

 

[forbzy]

Our best chance of getting something from the game is probably to set ourselves up to counter like we did Sunday. 

[axman2526]

Think this could be a long long game.

[Oli]

Omdz..weve been terrible for months. And finally when i thought Sarri has turned a corner and we all had a bit of love for him again, this pathetic lineup. If Emerson is too tired, when is Christensen not playing. Luiz and Alonso have the potential to be absolute ripped to shreds today, lets pray that isnt the case.

[RickUK]

trippier v hazard and davies in general v pedro; is some hope.  But Trippier is handy going forward

[forbzy]

After what happened at the end on Sunday I almost wonder if Sarri is hoping to be shown the door. That might explain some of his choices

[spadefx]

Pretty much the team expected, Kepa sitting out is understandable but frustrating.

Always fancy us at home, Spurs obviously have a lot of quality but so do we, and some excellent options on the bench.

If we're as organised and fired up as we were on Sunday this will be a good night, looking forward to it!

[big blue]

so disappointed with that team. I can understand Alonso to some extent, but pedro has been the worst of our wingers for 6 weeks. 

[The Don Antonio]

wtf if i recall last time spurs beat us at the bridge it was bcoz courtois got injured and we had to start caballero now we r benching kepa to start caba just to prove a point.

Talk about cutting your nose to spite your face

[IliyaKrostin]

To be honest, I had a feeling that RLC or CHO will start because both of them are simply better than most of our current starters. 

Big disappointment from the lineup, let's hope how the team will reach after the final.

COME ON CHELS!!

Rotating the keepers, clever.

[Munkunku]

I think Sarri is playing to keep it at 0-0 and try to nick it at the end.

Kepa should just cross Willy’s name of the team sheet and write his own. 

[just]

Tottenham have problems, no dirty Alli, no Dier and Vertonghen left out.

[BordeauxBlue]

Dier is more of a hindrance than a help though.

[chiefBlueCFC]

Alonso doesn't surprise me but no Christensen or RLC especially after Luiz, Rudiger, Kante, Jorginho all played 120 minutes. I know RLC wouldn't replace Kante or Jorginho but freaking eye roll Sarri and also pedro??? the winger in the worst form on Chelsea is freaking Pedro. I don't understand his team selections

Relieved to see Alli missing the game. He has made a habit of scoring against us in recent times

[ForeverCarefree]

Any good Will Sarri earned from Sunday will be quickly forgotten if we don’t turn up tonight, especially with that team selection. 

Here’s hoping he proves us doubters wrong!

[DP2]

Bit of perspective, you'd think spurs were threatening to win a european cup. Look at the 2 line ups...get out there and beat them, forget who's in goal and who is or isn't playing.
