Usually found getting bossed around SW London by a tiny dog. Happiest when going full Nigella in the kitchen.

We demolished Bournemouth. And look what Utd served up.
Dreadful result for us.
Utd get yet another new manager bounce next week. They’ll beat us as they always do. And then we get the baton as the shambolic club of the week.
God this is tiresome.
‘Spurs dominated in every area.’ Ask yourself why they dominated after dropping Solanke and choosing to play without a striker.
It really isn’t difficult to understand.
If Welbeck was the answer what happened at Brentford?
🤦♂️Xabi Alonso left more questions than answers after last night. The choice to play without a recognised striker and then to persist with it, is a huge flag. Tottenham dominated every area. My comment for @AbsoluteChelsea roundtable.io/sports/soccer/…
Losing Joao Pedro shouldn’t mean imploding twice in London derbies.
Spurs dominated us without a striker and we could have used the exact same system as them.
It’s possible to win with two number 10s and two wingers as Spurs proved.
#CFC ’s miserable day started with Joao Pedro being left out of the squad. Xabi Alonso has confirmed the striker will have tests tomorrow to check on the severity. nytimes.com/athletic/7720435…
These fans must have missed the Brentford game. Welbeck saved us that day eh?
We could have matched Spurs up with a box midfield, two wingers staying wide and no striker and actually had some of the ball.
Chucking a striker on changes nothing if you don’t touch the ball.
For fans who think a striker changes that game, why did De Zerbi drop Solanke today?
Spurs dominated *because* they didn’t have a striker.
Welbeck walking around with Rogers and Palmer would only have made it easier for Spurs. They wanted us to empty midfield.
Penders and Joao Pedro are sideshows.
Spurs' box midfield with Tonali, Fernandes, Maddison and Marmoush dominating Henderson and Caicedo decided the game. We never touched the ball!
You can't get a striker into the game let alone win it if you never see the ball!
#CHETOT
Well that's not going to help Penders' confidence.
That was Kepa levels of appalling.
#CHETOT
Look at that. 2 mins into the half and both Palmer and Rogers are coming back to help out in midfield!
That should have happened 47 mins ago.
#CHETOT
The issue is clearly midfield. Sky screaming for Welbeck to rescue us is missing the point.
We can't touch the ball to pass it to anyone in the final third whether it's Welbeck or Rogers. Spurs are dominating the middle of the pitch.

Fernandes, Tonali, Maddison, Marmoush and Gray are all in midfield. How can Henderson and Caicedo get the ball when it’s 5 vs 2 in there?
Palmer and Rogers have to help out instead of standing up front. Or we need Lavia.
Not sure Welbeck will help us get a touch of the ball.
Very messy. And that’s before we talk about the weather.
We look like a side who trained all week with Joao Pedro then had to come up with a new system a few hours before the game.
4 Spurs midfielders vs Henderson and Caicedo is a no contest.
#CHETOT
Oh dear. No Joao Pedro.
What happened since yesterday and all the pictures of him training at Cobham?
#CHETOT
Pleased for Jackson. Has wild extremes and it all got messy with the red cards and running off to Bayern. But when he’s the main man he’s quality.
(No it doesn’t mean he should have stayed. £65m strikers have to start. He had no chance of doing that with Joao Pedro around)
Nicolas Jackson SMASHES it past Donnarumma! 💥
Should the goalkeeper be doing better there? 😬

Hate keepers that run behind their line when trying to make a save. Kepa did this all the time.
You can’t stop anything if you’re two yards behind your own goal line!
It was always going to be Erling Haaland 🤖
What a header ✨
