Defensive pragmatic football is in his DNA, he said he'd be more attacking when he went to United and Spurs but it's just not who he is.

If you're sticking to a style dogmatically then it's not pragmatic

A fellow Chelsea fan endorsing Oliver ...oh dear...I'll have to wash my eyes ...but yes... he did indeed have a blinder performance!

OP

Spurs are the only team in the Prem to have beaten both the current top two this season. So he clearly is not hopeless in big matches. And you don`t win all the trophies he has won if you don`t win big matches.

This is a strange season, where every team is capable of beating any team on any given day. Spurs are no different to the rest of the teams. They have no god given right to win all their games.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That said...City will smash Spurs in the final
----------------------------------------------------------------------

May do, may not. I think the same was said a couple of years ago when they met in the CL.
