Neville is right Ziyech needs to shoot more

again he overplays a cross for Werner. sometimes you just have a bad game,

He’s not on it today that’s for sure. 

Posession is great at end of 1st half

When the ball goes wide to Chilwell and Reece they need to just take a touch out their feet and whip the f**king ball across the box. This passing in front of the Spurs defence is not working.

Mount has been our best player so far and that says a lot since he could have created a goal or scored but ruined our best chance.

We don't really know how to score it seems, I hope to see Havertz and CHO/Pulisic in the second half.

Kova has been good... Always a scapegoat with you. 

Same as Kante for you then.

Its no good having possession then losing the bloody ball.

well definitely have to be moving the ball a lot quicker the 2nd half, bring on a sub that can run at their defence or shoot rather than this pissing around 20yards out.

Playing a lot better here, the last 15 minutes. 

Sorry I thought that was rancid. Really poor passing and touch throughout the team leading to constant negative movements because balls are never into feet actively. We are lucky that they have been no better

Yet, I knew Reguilon is a good player, Kante couldn't do anything and Kovacic fouled him... Spurs are much better than what I expected.

Crosses are a bit of a waste when there's no Giroud or Zouma in the box

Just now, just said:

Actually I've gave Kante a lot of credit. Mount has also slowed the play down numerous times and passed it back or sideways in the the first 30 minutes, same with everyone else. Last 15 minutes picked up, but who do you blame for it all? Kovacic of course. WIthout Jorginho that's your new scapegoat. 

Slow, predictable, boring. What’s the point in putting the same type of cross in the box over and over and over again?

Standard Jose team in form. Compact and welcoming pressure and tough to break down. The Portuguese Tony Pulis

Bad half but we were still 20cm from being in the lead.

Mourinho game plan whenever Chelsea threaten drop to a back 6 and frustrate, our passing and crossing not been good enough to unlock the block. They bide their time waiting for a misplaced sideways pass or interception and then counter at pace  playing the odds. To get in the game have to improve pass accuracy and speed up attack to hinder their ability to regroup and defend.  And tbh their players have showed up a wee bit more and our front 3 haven’t clicked today. Maybe Giroud and Pulisic on sooner than later in the 2nd. 

Too much slow aimless passing around safe areas a la Sarriball.

Get Giroud on.

Whack ball towards Giroud from all over the pitch.

Let Giroud do what Giroud does. 

Three points. 

not much in it for me but I think we'll see a goal or 2 second half 

We are trying to feel our way into the game. Everyone bar the defence has been subpar, Frank needs to kick up their arses because Jose for sure will do the same and frustrate Ziyech

Would like to see the midfielders just try to smash it when they get the ball 30 yards out. A good strike and/or deflection and it could very well go in. Thought Kante and Kovacic especially had a few good opportunities to have a strike.

Tammy has played well to be fair to him

The way we are playing is the worst way to play against the tactics Tottenham are playing. You will never break down a packed defence if you are going to move it around slowly and not force things. We are playing into Tottenham's hands, and if this continues, one of their counter attacks is going to get them a goal.

Spurs are always going to be dangerous on the counter, we aren't doing that badly though. I thought the last 15 minutes we played well. 

Could do with Pulisic coming on though, we haven't threatened that left side enough. 

Bring back transition season's, can't cope with this tension!
