Team news V Chelsea

It's infuriating how pessimistic everyone has been on here since Saturday. Nothing has particularly changed: almost certain to finish top 4, slim chance of the title, good chance of a CL quarter final.

I expect us to bounce back against a Chelsea side who played 120 minutes on Sunday and had a day's less rest. Kepa may not even play, and no doubt a fair chunk of Sarri's preparation time has been taken up by disciplining his players.

Chelsea will have a go, leave space in behind, and I imagine Son and Kane will have good games. I'd guess 2-1 Spurs, but would take a draw. Don't think we'll lose.

Any game when Kane's fit and firing we've got a chance.

only sandy is negative tbh... the rest of us are just frustrated by us yet again not making the most of an opportunity presented to us.

Don’t think we will beat Chelsea as our record there is just pathetic. I don’t see how anyone can ever predict us winning at Stamford bridge where we have won once in 30 years. They always turn up against us and even more so when everyone thinks they will have a stinker which we know they won’t. I can certainly see a draw though and I’ll take it aslong as we beat Arsenal Saturday

Aurier joins the long list of crap fullbacks spurs have had last 20 years. He’s on a level with Atouba, stalteri, Austin and Pamarot for me

Lee Young Pyo has to be up there, he played left back for us but did not have a left foot and never beat his man. He was neat and tidy on the ball but all he did was constantly cut inside onto his right foot.... so predictable.

I always used to shart myself when Atouba would do a Cruyff turn in his own penalty area

that win happened to be last season though Donald

Tbf it’s a must not lose scenario as don’t want them making up points on us.

Although I will be disappointed if we don’t win considering the extra time recovery we’ve had on them.

A win had to come at some point. Our record there is horrendous and we lost in the league cup only recently.

A draw will be a good result if we beat Arsenal Saturday. I don’t think the 120 minutes of football will make that much difference as when ever we feel we have an advantage on Chelsea, they always seem to turn up and prove everyone wrong. Draw at Stamford bridge and a win Saturday, should put us in pole position for top 4. Chelsea wouldn’t of gained anything on us and we would of gained more on Arsenal.

Tbf the extra recovery for us is a disadvantage

4 or 6 points from both

anything else I will be bitterly disappointed
