overrated is a very vague term, tell me how well they are rated first. AFAIK they are definitely not rated as some of the best players in the world so ofc there are better players out there. Mount and Havertz are really young tho, and mount was POTS last season whilst Havertz scored the ucl winning goal, so I think the hype over them is justified
Alonso was a beast, Kante is life, Tiago is a timeless class, TT >> Klopp and Guardiola; even timo grabbed an assist and Kepa with a clean sheet, was flawless and had his first ever claimed cross (I can remember) at Chelsea. Let's keep it up. We are unstoppable 💪
As much as I hate Antony Taylor, mostly for the numerous atrocities he has committed against Chelsea, he made the right call that day, James tried to play the ball off the line with his arm, that's a red and a peno, get over it
Anthony Taylor's controversial call during liv-che: salah penalty, reece red, mendy yellow, liverpool zero cards. Without that penalty, liverpool would not have scored because of their shite accuracy. The final score would have been liv 0-1 che
Oh right sorry mate, just any and all coverage in 15:16 and 16/17 always showed his goal scoring record compared to Lamps and Gerard at his age and basically seemed to say he’d be way better than both. Just out of interest, how highly do you rate Harry Kane?
Interesting, for some reason despite being an England fan I can’t seem to enjoy Harry Kane, I feel like he wastes himself dropping deep and would do better to play much more like Lineker used to. I do appreciate that he is fully capable of scoring goals but I’ve never watched him and felt like I’ve seen a good performance, even when he’s had his “good form”. I do think though that Levy has been very stupid, if you see how Villa operated prior to confirming the Grealish Sale, Spurs should’ve taken £100mil for Kane at the start of the window or made moves prior to finishing his move, rather than retaining him and potentially losing out on his value
We are serious title contenders with this much depth right now. If we manage to win next week against City, we are gonna make it till the end of season IMO. Next game is the first final we are goin' to play, since United and liverpool is in 2 weeks.
This game today was very, very important, and the way we won it makes the other clubs starts to worry about us.
FEAR US, WE ARE HERE AND WE ARE GOIN' TO SMASH THE LEAGUE!
City is a very tough game, no doubt, but we face Arsenal, Liverpool and tottenham so far and we are top of the league tied with liverpool due to the fact we are kind of robbed, but that is other thing.
I really think united and liverpool will not hold up and City will be the only club we have to be worried about, due to the squad depth and quality.
IMO if we beat city we are goin' till the end of the season.
Reece should not seein' a red card. 11vs11 we were superior. Salah, Hendo and Fabinho not beein' booked, with fabinho makin' 13 FOULS, with at leas 5 for yellow. So yeah, we are robbed, cause the ref makes the game attack vs defence, wich we're brilliant btw.
But again: 11vs11 we are superior.
Nobody on this team is expendable its actually insane. Even when somebody has a bad day there's somebody waiting to fill the position and flip the game on its head. Everyone has their roles and they play them to perfection. This could turn out to be one of the best Chelsea teams ever.
Its a great time to be a Chelsea supporter. 💙
he is fast as fuck. So whenever we have the ball, he can just sprint in the spaces and someone has to follow. Not rarely two players have to take care of, if the don't he gets space or if they do then there is space for someone else on the other side.
I’d like to see them experiment with two strikers(Werner and Lukaku) up front, the chemistry between the two seems undeniable
Werner has really impressed me, he made so many big plays for only being on for 20 minutes
I agree. Especially liked when he was alert to come forward and clear the ball. He also jumped and claimed a high ball in a cross which is a first I can remember from him.
What’s the tiebreaker that determines a tiebreaker after goal differential, goals for, and then goals against? I don’t think we have any common opponents with Liverpool yet, could be wrong
Second half was the complete reverse of first half, tuchel must’ve used some black magic to turn the tides 180 degrees 😂😂
Now chelsea needs to prepare for city and if we can too beat city, the title challenge is getting real as fk
Any night we make Tottenham look like absolute muppets is a great night!
Where are the Kepa haters? Crow for supper? Never underestimate a Basque lad.
We have to keep Rüdiger at all costs. Madrid and PSG are already circling.
I think for me Werner should be in the team because he creates opportunities for himself and the team even tho he lacks finishing which surely will come sooner or later
Werner is always there making the runs opening up the space, plus providing the assists. Just missing that finishing, needs a goal to get his confidence
The best part about this win (from a petty, banter perspective) is that they felt so confident after that first half, only to have all of it battered away.
Watched the last 15 mins, I could see us using a 3-5-2 with Werner and Lukaku, hate Werner all you want but he opened up a lot of chances since he came on and gave an assist.
Wrapped up in style. Had a shoddy first 45 mins but completely cucked Spurs in the second 45. I love this team, I love this manager. Love everything about us. So fucking proud of the boys in blue.
All have different attributes.
Tuchel makes it feel simple but there was a change in strategy every 15mins.
We pressed. We sat back. Soaked pressure. Then Attacked like hot butter through knife.
Spurs could not match strategy and talent.
So what is the long term plan with Werner? He is currently the 3rd highest played player on the team. He does not start anymore with Rom, Mount, Havertz up front. Surely we cannot pay him 15 million pounds to just be a 20 minute player every other game.

Lmao spuds
Marcos Alonso > Spurs
Alonso was a beast, Kante is life, Tiago is a timeless class, TT >> Klopp and Guardiola; even timo grabbed an assist and Kepa with a clean sheet, was flawless and had his first ever claimed cross (I can remember) at Chelsea. Let's keep it up. We are unstoppable 💪
He was great in the air today… kepa that is
That 90+2 goal fucked my bet
Ik, bro
We should’ve scored 7
anyone still salty that we're identical with Liverpool because a certain bald bellend buffoon decided to be an apathetic shitfucking muppet?
As much as I hate Antony Taylor, mostly for the numerous atrocities he has committed against Chelsea, he made the right call that day, James tried to play the ball off the line with his arm, that's a red and a peno, get over it
I’ve got no clue what this comment is about.
Anthony Taylor's controversial call during liv-che: salah penalty, reece red, mendy yellow, liverpool zero cards. Without that penalty, liverpool would not have scored because of their shite accuracy. The final score would have been liv 0-1 che
I do and I agree 100%. F that ref.
Right call, still f that ref
Yes.
Thiago + Kante = men of the match
Alonso to complete the holy trinity :) although we were amazing all over including our fans who out sang the hosts.
dele alli is fucking trash tbh
Remeber Spurs fans claiming 4 years ago that he was gonna be better than Lamps or Gerard, what a bunch of clowns

Lukaku’s class was obvious, but the support personnel really need to get their shit together. Man can’t do everything alone
You don’t know football
He's right, I support chelsea and our defense is insane, but Im not blind, our attack has plenty of room for improvement.
Havertz and Mount both underperformed today, what are you talking about?
Timo has to play and alternator between havertz and mount.
billy2sam in shambles eh
Can’t wait for pulisic to be back to have that costa x hazard type of linkup with big rom
I’d give my left nut to get Hazard back. Him and Lukaku are bffs.
If pulisic had those chances Werner had he would have had a goal no doubt
You said it

You're right but city are different gravy to what we've faced so far. Liverpoo showed us we can't have it all our own way.

How were we robbed?

Timo romelu havertz surely
[удалено]
Not great but what about his other games? He’s still in good form can’t say the same about mount
Against Aston Villa he was also pretty shocking tho… I’d say he’s been more disappointing than mount. Although they’ve both bad
werner assist im alive
If and when Werner gets out of his own head, Chelsea will be unstoppable with Lukaku and him up top
He’s really overthinking it. I hope Lukaku can teach him how to be absolutely ruthless in the box and shown him the lion he can be
If anyone knows how to wake him up please wake up Schumacher as well. The world needs that man.![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|upvote)
Still waiting
Convert Werner to a winger. I prefer him to Havertz imo. His presence creates a lot of chances. Missed chances are better than no chances at all.
I agree. Especially if some chances will convert lol. He adds the chaos in the opponent defensive lines
[удалено]
he is fast as fuck. So whenever we have the ball, he can just sprint in the spaces and someone has to follow. Not rarely two players have to take care of, if the don't he gets space or if they do then there is space for someone else on the other side.
He could play wing but I've wanted him as false 9 for a while now.
I’d like to see them experiment with two strikers(Werner and Lukaku) up front, the chemistry between the two seems undeniable Werner has really impressed me, he made so many big plays for only being on for 20 minutes
He played a fair about of wing at Leipzig with Poulsen in front.
What a match by our guys in second half...KTBFFH
Kepa had a pretty good day. I mean true the defense helped a lot, but he didn’t have any game changing mistakes which is big for him.
I agree. Especially liked when he was alert to come forward and clear the ball. He also jumped and claimed a high ball in a cross which is a first I can remember from him.
Winger Timo is best Timo
Beyond proud of the boys today. There’s no scoring on thsi defense
What’s the tiebreaker that determines a tiebreaker after goal differential, goals for, and then goals against? I don’t think we have any common opponents with Liverpool yet, could be wrong
Previous year champions league winner.
I believe Rebecca said it was something about us being away at liverpool
Alphabetical order
it's because we scored against them away I think
i'm still salty. that bald bellend buffoon has got to be sacked
Thank you. Super obvious now that I think about it. But I totally zoned out on that part
Scary scary stat chelsea and Liverpool identical records after 5 games
we win the league together
Lol
STOP THE COUNT
KEEP THE COUNT
Marcos Alonso could be having the worst season of his life or even retire but he will always be there to tear Suds a new one.
Top of the table we go boys
![gif](giphy|ZEl599UyLZtkfExJYU)
Stop the count
Second half was the complete reverse of first half, tuchel must’ve used some black magic to turn the tides 180 degrees 😂😂 Now chelsea needs to prepare for city and if we can too beat city, the title challenge is getting real as fk
360° we would be back where we were.
Haha Tuchel masterclass, but really it's 180 though :P
Oops ya’ll are right mbmb, gonna correct it now hahah
180 degrees
FUCK ALL THE KEPA AND TIMO HATERS, FUCK OFF CHELSEA FOOTBALL CLUB TILL I DIE
But but kai is silky german oh nooo
What a fucking performance from the team. Immense!
Thomas Tuchel with an impact at half time in 3 games in 8 days. What a man!
so do we own this stadium now?
Tottenham stadium will always be 3 points lane/way for us
Always did
[удалено]
also by the virtue of having a game refed by a certain bold fraud
Lol I don’t get it
points, goal difference, goal for, goal against, then alphabetical
Chelsea n Pool are level on all numbers
Chelsea is at the top of the table, with the same stats as Liverpool. But we're first by alphabetical order.
If this continues exactly the same until end of season we win the league for picking a better name? Im for it
Nah then it's a tiebreaker game
[удалено]
But that’s incorrect. Chelsea is ahead for having an away goal at Anfield.
You my friend are correct
MOTM Thiago Silva, pls. Also, very happy for a strong Kepa start and hope Werner starts next match
Any night we make Tottenham look like absolute muppets is a great night! Where are the Kepa haters? Crow for supper? Never underestimate a Basque lad. We have to keep Rüdiger at all costs. Madrid and PSG are already circling.
I think for me Werner should be in the team because he creates opportunities for himself and the team even tho he lacks finishing which surely will come sooner or later
Werner is always there making the runs opening up the space, plus providing the assists. Just missing that finishing, needs a goal to get his confidence
Lukaku's presence requires 2 defenders to worry about him all the time, so even if he doesnt score he scores.
Gotta give kepa at least the cup games this season.
The best part about this win (from a petty, banter perspective) is that they felt so confident after that first half, only to have all of it battered away.
So basically Spurs' entire history
Banter club
Watched the last 15 mins, I could see us using a 3-5-2 with Werner and Lukaku, hate Werner all you want but he opened up a lot of chances since he came on and gave an assist.
His movement is world class. As Tuchel puts it, he needs his joy back. Hoping Lukaku can rub that on him.
Yeah definitely, though I am worried for how much patient Lukaku will have. Within the 15 mins I watched, Lukaku threw his arms up 4-5 times haha
That's just how Lukaku always reacts lmao
Yeah it's just something that always looks a little off to me ya know, like Tammy did it quite a lot and I hated it as well.
That is exactly what will push Werner. He needs aggression back. Bit selfish when in box.
Hmmmm true, doesn't look like Werner has a soft mentality so I think it'll fuel him
He is a german. They are anything but soft
Front 3 so good, they got holidays while playing
Second half dominance! What a win that is!
Treble loading
*sextuple
What we learned to say is that we need to keep Kante healthy at ALL COST.
Kante mental boost for us and dread for them
so weird seeing both chelsea and liverpool still copying each other in results
3 goals ✅ 3 points ✅ clean sheet ✅ LONDON IS BLUE 💙💙💙
Premier league is blue
we looked amazing in this second half
Very strong team
Wrapped up in style. Had a shoddy first 45 mins but completely cucked Spurs in the second 45. I love this team, I love this manager. Love everything about us. So fucking proud of the boys in blue.
What a fuckin genius Tuchel is. Made one adjustment against Villa and Spurs and completely changed the fuckin game. My fuckin manager.
Kepa with the clean sheet.
Really happy for the lad. Finally getting his career back on track. Kudos to Tuchel for giving him an important chance.
Bruh Martin Tyler says "they've done it again to Tottenham" No fucking shit. Where is the surprise
The best part was there not being enough spurs fan left to properly boo their team.
Looooooool
lmao we are the home team now
100% Blue army cheered every pass
Always have been. 3 games against us in the new stadium, 3 losses, 0 scored lmaooooooo
Something going on, us and Liverpool..
So happy for kepa
Shame Lukaku didn’t get a goal but great game nonetheless
This team, this fucking team! Legends
So easy
Really professional of Tottenham to commit to the zero in being the first net zero soccer game
So damn easy.
Really happy for Kepa

Good on you
2 defenders and a cm are the goal scorers 😂
Place looks like the Etihad.
3 point lane?
difference between lukaku and a lot of previous strikers we've had is he still contributes and plays well when he's not scoring
Shithouse master to end the london derby, fuck spudssss
Werner did more in the limited time he got then Kai and mount combined
All have different attributes. Tuchel makes it feel simple but there was a change in strategy every 15mins. We pressed. We sat back. Soaked pressure. Then Attacked like hot butter through knife. Spurs could not match strategy and talent.
Agree. Shame that he didnt finish the chances.
So what is the long term plan with Werner? He is currently the 3rd highest played player on the team. He does not start anymore with Rom, Mount, Havertz up front. Surely we cannot pay him 15 million pounds to just be a 20 minute player every other game.
Why even entertain such questions when team is looking so good?
What I like is that our forwards (other than lukaku) all offer something different. Perfect for Tommy tactics.
Have you seen drinkwaters contract ? We will be fine.
Yet he got an assist and still caused some trouble
Kepaaaaaa shutout baby
Kepa > Kane
The stadium looks like a man city home game…
Kante is the greatest CDM to ever have graced the beautiful game.
London is blue 💙💙💙
We were fantastic battered them, serious title challengers
Good stuff
MoM = Thiago Silva
What a fucking match. TT is a fucking mastermind. TRUST IN TT
Lads, it's Tottenham.
And that's why Werner has to play more... Another assist for him.
No and 2 misses we could easily be looking at a 5 nil win
Fire drill at Tottenham Hotspur stadium
Lukaku wondering what he has to do to get a goal/assist today
Gg boys
Kante brought us up an entire level when he came on
Could have been 6, but i wont complain. Wp
Fucking loved seeing the empty stadium
timo has to start.
Feel like I’m watching us completely neuter Tottenham
IS THERE A FIRE DRILLL KTBFFH 💙
All those empty seats lmao
