Very good fight back from Spurs. They have been getting points from losing position this season.

 

Showing of strong character

It's unlucky for West Ham to have conceded a penalty in the dying second of the game that allowed Tottenham to draw level at White Hart Lane. Final Score:

 

Tottenham 2 West Ham 2

 

Just look at the EPL Table from #3 to # 7

 

3) Arsenal – 48

4) Man United - 47

5) Southampton - 46

6)Tottenham – 44

7) Liverpool – 42

 

The table may change again after Liverpool & Southampton game.

Mourinho ranted on Sky Sports today on the controversial Burnley match decisions. Not sure if this is a wise thing to do as the more he rants, subconsciously the refs may go against chelsea in 50/50 decisions. That said the Ashley Barnes tackle on Matic is career ending n Matic was lucky to escape serious injury but Barnes was even luckier to escape not even with a yellow card👎

Southampton XI: Forster, Clyne, Fonte ©, Yoshida, Targett, Wanyama, S. Davis, Ward-Prowse, Djuričić, Elia, Pellè. (4-2-3-1)

 

Liverpool XI: Mignolet, Can, Skrtel, Lovren, Henderson, Allen, Markovic, Ibe, Lallana, Coutinho, Sterling (3-4-2-1)

 

Shocking selection by BR but I will give him benefit of doubt. Needs to keep things fresh but testing Sakho I hope will not be a big mistake.

 

Edited: Sakho had a knock on his hip. Out of this game. Time for Lovren to step up

Lovren must show thay he was the main CB for saints n not fonte. Anyway...,i don hv high hopes for this game.

I am worrying for our left hand side. Lovren-Markovic. Clyde is not an easy opponent

Both Alan Shearer and Robbie Savage agreed with J Mourinho's views. It was a bad performance by Martin Atkinson.

Maybe not the strongest performance from the ref but Chelsea must not forget they do get the benefits from other games.

Pool has to be careful though. Very lucky not to concede 2 penalties!!

 

Strange decision to put Can as LCB and Lovren RCB.

Saints are really going down the right. Pool need to be careful in giving away fouls near the edge of box. Ward-Prowse can really deliver those

Must really say Pool are riding their luck a lot. That early goal made them sit back and play on counter. The problem with this is that their are not having the right players to set up this way.

 

The WBs are not defensively apt. Allen and Hendo are both not a DM that can help to ease the pressure. They don't have the target man up front for the quick release.

 

Right not, they are trying to break using the WBs, leverage on their pace. However, they aren't getting much headways against the organised Saint's backline.

 

Hoping for some tactical switch in the 2nd half. For one, I would put in Moreno for Markovic first.. 60th min, send in Balo and Sturridge

Crucial period of the game now.

 

Saints pushing up and if Pool can conjure up a good counter attacking move, it will be a good chance to kill this game off.

 

Sterling!!! This is going to be massive!!!

Pool win actually help Man United to keep Soton at bay and remain in No. 4 spot. A draw will push Man United down to No. 5. Now the Table has a nice set of number for No 3 to No 7 - 48, 47, 46, 45, 44.
