it's not the same chelsea side though, is it ? the names might be similar but they're getting older together and 2006 was a long time ago now.
and the manager couldn't be trusted to keep west brom up last season |

By:
It's more likely that Lampard and co are running the team now. The players are in charge and now they''ll probably go back to the style they played under Mourinho, which brought them so much success.

I predicted we'd lose these three games before arsenal. we're still third with a easy run-in. bolton and stoke at home next. 6 points. back on track

Spurs will finish 3rd, Arsenal and Chelsea will be neck and neck for 4th (still would not rule out Newcastle especially if they can get something tomorrow). I'm afraid Liverpool are now out of the equation.
if we beat newcastle we'll be one point behind and you state - as if it's fact - that they will finish above us, strange post. ps. it's works both way, when we were so far behind, the crowing from the the s*uds was at nauseating levels, it's called giving back. I'm not on the wind-up, I think Chelsea will hit the kind of form they are capable of. I think you forget this is the same Chelsea side that's won titles and got to European cup final. The same? they're not - they have the same core ,cech, terry, lampard, Essien and Drogba - difference is - they're all over 30 and no longer have the same effect in games, does that really need to be stated, it's obvious |

This was always going to happen, since it is Wenger (revered worldwide as a brilliant tactican and fantastic motivator) v Redknapp (con man, club destoryer & has the media wrapped round his finger)....who did you think was going to win that battle? simply put, give 'Arry arsenals team and he would have them relegated.
|
|
By:
Well the con man is doing better at the moment...
Who would have thought a few years ago, Arsenal fans would be so excited at only being 4pts behind Spurs! Amazing scenes! |
|
By:
Will Tottenham fans be supporting Arsenal or Newcastle tomorrow? Arsenal will inevitably be top 4 so surely Spurs fans will be hoping to keep a gap to the Geordies?

Spurs as a club, from its players, down to its fans, have a genuine inferiority complex when it comes to Arsenal.
They like to yap their mouths like little yorkshire terriers, but you always know their bark is worse than their bite. It'll be yet another season of failure as they finish behind us. Can't wait. |

That remains to be seen, they were long odds on favourites and runaway leaders of the league at one point last year, this exact team finished miles above Arsenal and Spurs. I highly doubt their key players have degenerated as badly as you say. They have even added some quality in the shape of Juan Mata and Daniel Sturridge. They didn't get on well with the manager, these things happen, but you shouldn't confuse that with loss of ability. |
|
By:
3 and 9 points respectively. hardly miles
|
|
By:
Point still stands though, not getting along with a new manager is not the same as loss of ability. You lot are dreaming if you think Chelsea will be pushovers. Spuds play Chelsea in 13 days, I don't think you even have a snowball's chance in hell of avoiding defeat in that game.

high lander, high lander, high lanader, listen, I never said they never had the same ability, class is permanent and all that, I was insinuating that the ability that those core players do have cannot be used in games as effectively as it used to be, injuries and age takes it toll at some point, Drogba and Lampard are different animals now to what they were 3-4 season, agreed though Mata and Sturridge are two shrewd buys, Mata is an Arsenal type.
|
|
By:
Mesmerised, mesmerised, mesmerised, saying they are less effective than they used to be, is the same as saying they are not as good as they used to be. I disagree, I think their bad season was down to the manager not the ability of the players or the team as a whole. Now the problem has gone I expect Chelsea to revert back to winning ways.
|
|
By:
 It's very simple, in regards to the core players I mentioned earlier - they are simply not as effective on the pitch as they used to be, even Stevie Wonder can see that, that's the long and short of it. |
|
By:
Okay Mesmerised how is that NOT saying they are not as good as they used to be?! It's the same thing ffs
 Deary meeeeeeeeeeeee *shakes head* |
|
By:
Semantics ffs - depreciation, there stock has fallen, they're not as effecti.....nevermind, you must of taken your dozy pills this morning.

By:
You're seriously keeping this going? I don't care, my point isn't about this strawman nonsense anyway, it's about Chelsea finishing above Spurs, which they will.
|
|
By:
am I keeping it going wtf? - you posted a reply to me, I replied back
 if you don't care don't post. |

Spuds euro days are numbered anyway,how will they meet the new fifa regs,there being bankrolled the same as city and chelsea.We have had a crap season,we will finish 3rd,keep rvp,and on to next season

tottenham are a complete dissapointment, i thought there was going to be some substance behind the form, everyone saying they play the best football in the league and now they cant buy a win. newcastle who were in the championship 2 seasons ago have taken there place in the league and all the plaudits they were receiving, fair play to newcastle there playing some great stuff, i dont believe that they will keep it up as much as i thought tottenham would but what do i know, i thought tottenham could get close to the top!! newcastle for 3rd!!

Spurs beat Newcastle 5-0 the game before the Emirates Disaster
|
|
By:
and?
|
|
By:
Well they looked in a completely different league it would have been difficult to envisage Newcastle finishing above them
|
|
By:
don't flatter yourself. we don't need much of an excuse to roll over and die. anyone backing us at evens or whatever today should be sent straight to the funny farm and 2/5 at home to blackburn next sunday as well
|
|
By:
ahhh yeah it wasnt the most predictable, i see earlier people werent even talking about newcastle they were including liverpool in there as challengers
 but newcastle are doing what spurs were doing earlier in the season and exactly the opposite to what spurs are doing now, beating the teams that are below them and not quite as good, which is exactly what you need to do, you can only beat what is infront of you on the day. i thought spurs would be able to continue to do so, theyve got the players, could turn out to be quite embarrasing doing it this way round (ending with the bad run of form). |
|
By:
Yeah i thought Spurs a good thing today tbh
|
|
By:
and how we're still only a shade of odds against for a top 4 finish beggars belief. i'd be absolutely staggered if we turn it around from here
|
|
By:
It started on January 14th when they drew 1-1 with
Wolves. I started a thread on the weekend before that match suggesting it was time to oppose Spurs and since then they have won 3 from 14. I also said they would probably finish around 6th and was laughed off the forum. Very sad. |

By:
hope you made some money then ken!!

|
By:
I have indeed.

By:
To me these prices are still all wrong,Tottenham have run their race I think they should be the outsiders,Newcastle have the hardest run in inc.Chelsea away and Chelsea have three home games and a potential gimmee at Anfield .
The winner of Chelsea v Newcastle is in Europe imo possibly in 3rd place. |
