Big win for Chelsea with a patched up team.
Premier League matchweek 2 (august 19th-21th)
- Thread starter the hea
- Start date
Spurs never fail in doing one thing and that's bottling. 
Did Spurs really dominate? Yeah they had a lot of the ball, but they hardly had any clear cut chances in the second half. Chelsea will be back when Hazard returns. But I think it'll be between the Manchester clubs this season.
Typical derby game, could go either way. Well done Chelsea we just couldn't break them down today.
What a huge cnut Conte is it's the second match of the season!
it's the second match of the season!@GlastonSpur Will you show up today mate???
Can we just relegate Spurs to the Conference so the points can go to other teams who aren't destined to fail at every single turn?
Considering the players they were without, Chelsea did very well defensively. Christensen was dodgy as hell but they survived.
None of the top sides look particularly good ATM, though admittedly it's only been 2 rounds. I'll hold off on judgment of us.

Alonso's huge!
1-1 would probably have been better for us, but the style of that late winner and meaning Tottenham are straight off losing a "home" game is good news.
Keeps both teams 3 points away from us as well.

Pray tell how he cost them? They look for everything to go through to him. They bought a defender, they keep Son and Jansen who are not top class...and they don't have a plan B
Does this 'top 6' include Liverpool and Mignolet?
Well they don't just want an upgrade, they want Alex Sandro. BIG difference
Agreed. Chelsea look ordinary IMO. They need transfers up front. Spurs will do fine and finish top 4 but when it really matters in the big games they don't have the experience to cope. Losing that 2nd goal today was unacceptable, very poor from them.
They had multiple oppurtunities from good positions but couldn't make anything out of it.
Weren't Spurs unbeaten at home last season?
On Friday Night Football last year. Then she got a lot of stick from Spurs fans so she quit from Sky Sports.
Solid ball winning although struggled a bit in the first half
Who?
Well after this weekend we are ahead on points over Chelsea, Spurs, Arsenal and Liverpool. Can't complain. Let's hope the Everton can do a job tomorrow.
Years ago, arsenal used to be bottlers and spurs were the laughing stock.
How the roles have reversed now?. The only thing that hasn't is How they still remain Chelsea's pocket...

Nah he's better than Ederson and Mignolet and I'd take him over current Cech. Not fit to lace Davids boots, but then again I don't think many keepers are.
Lloris at fault for the 2nd goal.
fecking bottlers. Tin pot club.
He makes it so easy to root against him.What a huge cnut Conte is
Presumably Cahill
Spurs had a little spell at the end of first half/beginning of second but none of them look anything special so far.
Every team will play at Wembley like it is a final and will give Spurs a game (except Liverpool).
I'd be totche too, with a record like that.
She told the truth, why quit? Oh well I guess she isn't Katie fecking Hopkins who doesn't give a shit
A bit harsh. I think 'Pool would rather have Lloris than Mignolet or Karius. He's not on DDG's or Cech's level but he is a class Keepert nevertheless. The Poch is actually quite strict with his players
Come on Rooney & Everton!
Alonso
Yeah that's what I'm talking about. They got into good positions, but made nothing off it.
When did they win that game?
Nah, Liverpool have the capacity to destroy teams if they turn up...good thing is,sometimes they don't
Chelsea was widely reported trying to bring Alex Sandro from Juve
