Not playing against flat track opponents tonight
Lukaku with deftness of a horse on that pass 
All this talk of "new Lukaku" is a total myth

Yeah they have been pretty scrappy, but that is football. You don't control every minute of every game against decent teams.
Thiago Silva is indeed a very good defender.
Given his age, I expected him to have waned.

Shoot da ball!!!
Lukaku managing to ruin a 3 v 2 there.
Spurs all over them currently.

Spurs countering well
Should have just taken another touch and finished. Poor.
What the hell is that on Alli's head?
feck off chelsea, come on you cock
Where is Mendy? Kepa at his old tricks again.
Good football by Spurs so far
Absolutely. Spurs pace up top are causing them problems. They’ve still had a couple of chances going forward where they’ve had a lot of space.
Told you guys Chelsea would look far less convincing when teams match their system.
This is how you play against Chelsea.
Man Spurs are going to be a pain in the neck for every top club this year.
Nuno just doing nuno things on the counter.

Why is Alonso being booed?
The resurrection of Tanguy Ndombele.
Man looks sharp.

Superb at reading the game. First couple of yards in his head and all that.
Chelsea get 30 starts out of him this season and they win the league imo.
Brilliant game this. Spurs are on mood. Ndombele is just enjoying it.
Great match at an awesome pace, a player like Son at United and our attack would be unstoppable. What do you guys think of Hojeberg? Seems like a good solid MF.
Incredible feet and movement by him
I assume something happened in previous Spurs-Chelsea game but can't recall anything.
Randomly remember Rudiger was calling out some fans who shouted racist stuff in this fixture two years ago but don't think anyone was ever charged. Don't think he's getting booed.
He killed a woman with his car?
Because he killed somebody in a car crash.
All you have to do is look at Kane and you give away a free kick
Mount has been so poor already. He’s not had a good start at all to the season.
Probably because he killed someone.
Thiago Silva is flawless so far
No but three of his four have been that so far. Proper number 9.
Amazing the way he reads the game now.
TBF Nuno has a decent record against the top teams/matching up against them.
Havertz 2 good position in 2 minute
The state of those patterns on Chelsea's kit. Azpilicueta's oversized shorts look like teatowels.
Chelsea have settled into this now.
This has got "lads, it's spurs" written all over it
Tottenham look surprising sprightly today.
You can tell they treat this as a cup final outing.
