    I was too cowardly to make one..

    A 4-1 mauling I reckon with our lads running all around the place with no structure


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 442 ✭✭Emoran


    2-1 chelsea with us taking a lead till the 60th minute.

    That's the spirit!:D:D

    Sadly, you're probably right, Kaboul and Sandro unlikely to start, Eriksen out. Can see Dawson and a frustrated Vertonghen getting mauled. Still, Spurs at 6/1 is worth a punt! Yiddos!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,788 ✭✭✭White Heart Loon


    Fryers is also doubtful for today. Think we're gonna get bashed tbh. We've nobody to cope with their width.

    Hazard is the major issue today

    With no sandro and Dawson not up to it , he will run riot

    A draw would be a fantastic result but there is no chance in my opinion


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 345 ✭✭curraghyid


    I hope we go there and get a result but i fear a hammering,:-(

    I just hope Hazard doesn't get injured early, could be a more even game. No one likes to see that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,443 ✭✭✭jobeenfitz


    Gonna buy in the beer early today to celebrate when we beat them. If that doesn't happen I'l do the usual. Turn off all sports, loud music the order til I'm drunk enough to forget what happened. Works every time.

    The last time pool hammered us I done the above and forgot all about the match til I heard AVB got sacked.

    Ignorance is truly bliss.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,747 ✭✭✭irishmover


    Games on at 03:30 my time. It's 22:20 and I'm not really prepared to go to bed yet but think I'll have to...

    Praying I manage to get out of bed for this one and it's for good reason too... Let it be entertaining coz I don't want to be falling asleep on the couch!

    I have a feeling you won't be bored. Make sure to close your windows as the neighbours may be shocked with all the screaming and cursing. My neighbours must think there is domestic violence here when spurs are playing.

    As for the result, hoping for a draw at least, hoping.

    Gona put a fiver on 3-2, 3-3 and 2-3. Paddy Power returning stake as free bet if Hazard scores anytime to online bets.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 475 ✭✭ruiseal


    Got Spurs to win 2-1 @ 18/1.
    If that doesn't happen, hope Hazard scores!:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,844 ✭✭✭Glebee


    Not holding out much hope with this on, but Spurs being Spurs anything is possible...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,927 ✭✭✭Sugarlumps


    Torres v Vertonghen mark II. Wouldn't be surprised if one team finishes a man light. Mourinho & Sherwood getting into a spat if things get heated. If AVB was still in charge then the press and tv coverage would be lauding it up. Team selection shall be interesting.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 311 ✭✭TrueIt


    4-0 to spurs..... You heard it here first


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 609 ✭✭✭Left Back on the Bench


    Can see Sherwood going 4-4-2 and trying to attack them and them just picking us off and hammering us


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,994 ✭✭✭KingdomYid


    Going to watch this one from behind the couch, am predicting very uncomfortable viewing. Stranger things have happened having said all that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,395 ✭✭✭Hatch99


    COYS


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,994 ✭✭✭KingdomYid


    Team v Chelsea - Lloris; Naughton, Dawson, Kaboul, Vertonghen; Bentaleb, Sandro; Walker, Lennon, Sigurdsson; Adebayor.

    Strange line up today, is it Walker right wing or 3 at the back??? I see love child is back in and no sign of experienced internationals Paulinho and Dembele.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,284 ✭✭✭DubPerryman


    Looks like 3-5-1

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,788 ✭✭✭White Heart Loon


    4-5-1, Could be a masterstroke if we pulls it off. Naughton covering back to let Walker bomb forward


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,284 ✭✭✭DubPerryman


    Could it be ....

    Dawson Kaboul Vertonghen

    Walker
    naughton

    Bentaleb Sandro

    Lennon ---- Siggy

    Ade


    I'd love to see Lennon running centrally at Terry.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,284 ✭✭✭DubPerryman


    Looks like 3-5-1

    Whoops....just ten players on the pitch.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,395 ✭✭✭Hatch99


    Strange selection :eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,661 ✭✭✭mickman


    Crazy lineup

    Facing obliteration


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,927 ✭✭✭Sugarlumps


    Sigurdsson ain't played in ages? Focking mad formation, Mourinho must be scratching his head? Which mean were going to win...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,393 ✭✭✭MonkieSocks


    Think you might see Kaboul sitting in front of the back four.

    If we give them too much space in midfield, they will murder us.

    =(:-) Me? I know who I am. I'm a dude playing a dude disguised as another dude (-:)=



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,284 ✭✭✭DubPerryman


    I thought TS was one dimensional.... But the last few weeks we've seen a switch between 442, 451 and 433.

    I like what he's attempting today. I hope it works out!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,393 ✭✭✭MonkieSocks


    I'm just Walker is not in the back four.

    He naturally stay's forward.

    Torres could be out :)

    Eto plays instead of Torres


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,927 ✭✭✭Sugarlumps


    Eto getting the poppers into him


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,927 ✭✭✭Sugarlumps


    Great start Dawson!

    Our back four hasn't a clue?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,747 ✭✭✭irishmover


    Sherwood is trying to offset Chelsea's ability in midfield with numbers.

    I suppose not much else he could have done. I don't think Mourinho would have been prepared for this tactic anyway.

    Probably better going for this than going for 4-4-2.

    Except Chelsea look like scoring already..

    This could get ugly.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,282 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    We're gonna get destroyed today. Wrong players starting imo.

    Also..."Lloris could have been sent off for that"...what the hell is he talking about?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,747 ✭✭✭irishmover


    To be fair we've looked comfortable enough.

    Don't look like scoring but have had the ball a decent amount so far.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,927 ✭✭✭Sugarlumps


    No time on the ball, just hope Bentaleb is careful for the rest of the game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,747 ✭✭✭irishmover


    And then Bentaleb almost scores! Very tame shot..

    Good pressure.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,747 ✭✭✭irishmover


    Why are we so bad at corners.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,927 ✭✭✭Sugarlumps


    Kaboul day dreaming....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,927 ✭✭✭Sugarlumps


    It's the weirdest formation ever, no idea who's playing where?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,747 ✭✭✭irishmover


    Kyle Walker playing centre midfield.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,927 ✭✭✭Sugarlumps


    Sandro!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,393 ✭✭✭MonkieSocks


    Look's like Chelsea have parked the BUS :p

    =(:-) Me? I know who I am. I'm a dude playing a dude disguised as another dude (-:)=



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,747 ✭✭✭irishmover


    What a shot by Sandro and what a save by Cech.

    Hope is starting to grow on me that we could get something here..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,927 ✭✭✭Sugarlumps


    Amazing were actually doing ok.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,747 ✭✭✭irishmover


    'Ivanovic, the latest Chelsea player to be on the floor in this contest'

    Haha.
