Kane urges Spurs to finish games off after Chelsea defeat

Tottenham have one more day to rest.

It was not always pretty, but Chelsea beat Spurs in the FA Cup. Chelsea use this formation to overload while they are attacking with their front three in Costa, Hazard, and Pedro applying pressure on the opposition’s defense, which most teams use a four in the back system, so four defenders.

The match will take place at Stamford Bridge.

Jenas: Spurs played better than Chelsea.

That is in spite of what looks like an inevitable return to the Champions League for Chelsea, who have had a European hiatus following a dismal 2015/16 season. He’s not the type of player who likes to speak out. Time has taken its toll on the old guard.

“In this season, we have lost (Branislav) Ivanovic, (John Obi) Mikel and next season we lose John Terry”.

The club captain’s departure will mark the end of a wildly successful era for Chelsea. With the goal I was still looking around to see where everyone was and then he’s just in front of you and it’s too late, but I can get more experience. Chelsea were supposedly at a low ebb before kick-off on Saturday afternoon.

But the bold gamble paid off in spectacular fashion as Hazard’s replacement Willian scored twice before the Belgian playmaker was sent on in the second half.

“I feel we’re mentally strong and that we’ve learnt from a year ago”. “But we must continue to work and improve”.

That was actually the last scoreline of Southampton’s when they lost to Man City last weekend and is considerably less likely than 2-1 or 3-1.

Conte, of course, was correct in his summary, nevertheless the emphatic nature of Chelsea’s 4-2 win over Spurs suggests the spirit within the Blues’ camp will be at an all-time high for the season – less so, perhaps, in north London. It is not easy to understand.

It was a dismal start, conceding after five minutes when Willian curled in a free kick but Harry Kane leveled in the 18th when he darted in front of Nathan Ake to flick Christian Eriksen’s cross into the net.

“But, for us, I repeat: this season is very important because we are trying to build something important for the present, to put the foundations down and be strong, stronger for the future”.

Ehiogu, who was Spurs’ Under-23s coach, suffered a cardiac arrest at the club’s training centre on Thursday. They won a lot.

I’d feel much better about taking the 23/20 on Betfair Sportsbook on Home Win + over 2.5 goals. Now we are building. He is very important for us.

Patience is a luxury rarely afforded to Chelsea’s managers. “It’s hard to put a finger on why and what you can do to change it”, he said.

“There is no sign of a new contract for the moment”.
