Spurs last 2 games are 6 points (Burnley / Sheffield U) . Tonight is a costly costly 2 points gone .

It’s a valuable point.

28% possession at home to a team most on here think are shit. Embarassing. God help us in the Champs League next season.
They are shit considering how much they spent

They play Man City in between those two, plus their other games are Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool.

Even if you give them sheff utd and Burnley as wins, they’ve still got to beat one of those four, or draw with at least two of them, just to go ahead of the points total we have already.

That’s without us getting another point all season.

Tonight was kick in the gut having been 2-0 up, but we’re still in a very good position for 4th. I certainly would t swap with Spurs!

They play Man City between those 2. And no game is a guaranteed win, Sheff Utd drew 2-2 with Chelsea a few weeks ago for example.

Don't understand the Chelsea moans about the goal, and Poch saying it's unbelievable and ridiculous. Sky saying it was controversial.

It's a clear foul, absolutely blatant.

Im sorry but it looked really soft and wek from carlos for me. Id be furious if that was given against us tbh

Right that statement is enough for me, I can’t take anything you say seriously. You clearly watched a different game. Night folks 🙏🏼

Right....

Because someone doesnt agree you you can't take their opinion seriously.

Alot of neutrals are all saying it was soft too. I dont want to say it but it was soft in my opinion. A soft nudge. Carlos was so weak and shit for that. We got a tad bit lucky there

Olsen is a backup goalkeeper. He does his job when called upon. Martinez is one of if not the best in the world.

I know it's a bit of a conspiracy theory, but I wonder if Olsen was brought on to give him some game time before the semi-final on Thursday?

Spurs would give their left nut to swap positions with us.

We weren't especially great in the first half, but there was method and intent and we looked a threat.

In the second half, we sat back and our midfield got overpowered. Luiz has been great this season but was either absent or a liability tonight. Diaby also offered little and Carlos came up with an awful cameo. Also, we didn't keep Madueke in check and gave him too much space and we should have learnt from the cup game.

I understand that there will be less solidity when Olsen plays, but he wasn't to blame for their goals and obviously he hasn't played that much. Also,  he made a very good save to keep us in it.

Not sure what it is with us and 2 goal leads. The crowd can sense the warning signs, the players seemingly not.

I hope that’s true, from an injury standpoint, but I doubt it is and if it is it’s a dreadful decision. Like I say though, I really doubt that’s the case.

It was a foul on Carlos,ifyoudo that in the build up to a goal, it is going’s to get reviewed.

Chelsea the better team, that should have won,they didn’t.

We are tired, its obvious.

When Tielemans was down injured Martinez was getting some treatment with what looked like his calf. It don’t look too bad but I reckon that’s why he didn’t come back out for the second half.

Im not sure CV if i can agree on this tired talk. We had a full week chelsea had a tough game midweek. It was just a very awful day at the office and as soon as the first goal went in anxiety hit the crowd and the players just collapsed further.

Its a trend we have seen too often this year. Today, manure, brentford to name a few. Think some of it is a mentality thing

And it can be mental tiredness as much as physical. At this level half a second loss with either can be massive. We're past the 50 game mark, it's going to happen at times.
