    I still don’t understand why Spurs decided to run with Chelsea. Those clowns went to the market for the youngest, fastest and most athletic players on the market.

    Keep the ball. Make sure they’re running to get it, not into space. Now they are dropping like flies.

      Ya I also don’t get if Chelsea’s biggest problem has been breaking down low blocks, why spurs didn’t just sit in as 9. Their plan just to give Jackson/Sterling/Murdky half the pitch to run into seemed insane. Like Chelsea just need one good pass over the top and Spurs were countered.

      Like I found all this talk of how brave Spurs were etc a bit mental. Isn’t it just bad tactics? It didn’t almost work, it instantly looked super dangerous and if Jackson was a better finisher, it’d be 9-1 or something. If we decided to be galaxy brain and were playing Zinny at CB, then he loses the next 10 headers to whose markers. It’s not brain or smart if it doesn’t work, at all.
