MotM Poll: Tottenham 1-1 Chelsea

By: Jack | December 12th, 2010

The recovery has begun. Even if this one was as painful as it was therapeutic.

A vexing period for me right now.

On the one hand, I should be pleased. The famous CFC finally broke from its slumber, playing with a style/ substance and a passion not seen since early October. Yet that in itself is cause for some distress.

We controlled the second half, had the lion’s share of both possession and chances. Grabbed a leveller through an inspired Mighty One. Even were rewarded a dead-on penalty in added time (finally). All this after I was pretty much resigned to defeat at the interval.

I should be wholeheartedly happy with the rallying call. But seeing that second half, and the chances that came with it, I can’t sit here and say I’m not a tad disappointed to have left White Hart Lane without all three points.

Then again, I guess I should be comforted by that very fact. When was the last time we could be disappointed not to win? Improvement indeed. Onwards and upwards then. P.S. England’s Brave John Terry is a hero.

« Rant Box: Tottenham v. Chelsea | Home | Video: King Carlo speaks post-Spurs »Mndabrekalou is not chelsea material... sturridge should start, his only problem is never shooting with his weaker right foot!ph0bolusStill need to be more clinical in front of goal...cough..Kalou...cough..

Still boggles the mind as to why Ancelotti starts him over Studge.MaxAgreed. Sturridge should be starting instead of Kalou. Kalou offers speed, but he has a tendency to miss wide open goals. Sturridge also has lots of pace and is dying to prove himself, he should get the nod over Kalou.MaxAfter that performance, I'm looking forward to Manchester United with optimism! If we put in as good a performance, we can certainly beat them considering Tottenham were the hottest team in the league going into that match, and next week we play United at the Bridge. Let's turn Stamford Bridge back into the fortress that so many people feared earlier!blog comments powered by Disqus
