If we had Kovacic or Jorginho we'd call them too lightwight for CM and they'd be sitting right next to Donny. In fact, you can put money on it.
Nothing lightweight about Kovacic - he has immense strength on the ball and is press resistant.

Another great header from Silva.
They would have had a worse team with the replacements if that happened. Similar to what happened after they sold Bale.
Chelsea strolled this second half.
I would not be giving corners away if I were Spurs.
This 'scoring goals' and 'creating dangerous chances' from corners thing confuses me. Is this allowed in football?
The only goal Chelsea conceded this season was the penalty at Anfield.
I wouldn’t say they have incredible defenders either, maybe Thiago Silva but he’s 36. I’ve never seen a team be so solid without world class defenders, it’s crazy. I’d be surprised if they don’t win the league this season

Not necessarily. It's not automatic to reinvest badly and it's not like Kane is doing well anyway
Skipp is just another Winks, average player with an equally uninspiring name.
Oh dear Werner.
Big mistake passing to Timo
Timo kenwood juicer toes Werner
It's all done in the midfield.
5 at the back and two very good midfielders in front of them help.
Werner is shocking isn't he.
Which you wouldn't often say when it involves Lukaku.
Werner.
Silva is playing like a world class defender. Beast mode.
He'll learn
Come on Spurs. Keep us top of the league. Don't Spursy this up.
Thank feck for Werner.
Is Son still playing?
His confidence is shot to bits when he's in front of goal. Almost comical
What a mess
Comedy in front of spurs goal
Christensen and Rudiger are great.
Lukaku is always in the way
It's clear that Kane had expected to be done with Tottenham by now. He's phoning it in this season.
tbf Lukaku deserves a goal here. he's been great.
He really does like a good moan does Rom
One thing I didn't get here was what was Lukaku doing blocking that shot
Why is it always someone else’s fault with Lukaku?
Lukaku is just as good at defending as he is at attacking. Guess he's really improved after all
One thing I didn't get here qas what was Lukaku doing blocking that shot
If he can't score then no other fecker is getting another one.
How didn't they score there.
Their wing backs pin back opposition full backs, and their midfield screens most attacks through the middle and wins the ball back very quickly. You can try a long ball over the top, but that CB unit is a good combination of fast, physical and experienced. Plus, Mendy has been making some great saves .
Is it just me or Nuno has turned Spurs into Wolves of London?
Teams should match up with Chelsea’s system and play 3 at the back. Will be interesting to see what Pep does at Stamford Bridge next week
