Premier League: Tottenham Hotspur 4 - 4 Chelsea
Match reports The Times: “How Chelsea must hate Tottenham Hotspur. Beaten by them in the Carling Cup final at Wembley last month, it was the North London side who again thwarted their ambitions, this time in the Barclays Premier League and in an astonishing eight-goal extravaganza at White Hart Lane last night.” The Guardian, Kevin McCarra: “Chelsea [...]
League Cup Final review: Chelsea 1 - 2 Tottenham Hotspur (AET)
Match reports The Times, Martin Samuel: “If this was a triumph for Jonathan Woodgate, Tottenham and Juande Ramos - who has been at White Hart Lane less than four months - it was a catastrophe for Chelsea’s regime under Avram Grant. There was nothing to suggest that Grant has advanced the club one iota since the [...]
League Cup Final preview: Chelsea v. Spurs; beware the crazy people…
There must have been a full moon sometime over the last few days. Everywhere you look this week, some very odd things have been happening (snow in Athens?) and there seem to have been hordes of delusional people hogging the headlines. They’ve been prancing merrily around in our calm waters of reason when they should [...]
Premier League: Chelsea 2 - 0 Tottenham Hotspur
Match reports Independent on Sunday, Nick Townsend: “After a match comfortably won with goals in each half, from Juliano Belletti and Wright-Phillips, who is thriving in a more central midfield role, no one should rule out Chelsea’s claim to the championship.” Sunday Telegraph, Patrick Barclay: “In attack … Grant had devised an interesting formation which was almost [...]
So, how was it for you? The 2006/07 season review
Did the earth move? Was the season lit with fireworks? Did Andriy Shevchenko seduce you with silky skills? Did Didier Drogba’s drive and dynamism send shivers down your spine? Did the essence of Michael Essien send you into a dreamy haze? Or did it seem like the interminable season from hell at times? Did you look [...]

Premiership review: Chelsea 1 - 0 Tottenham Hotspur
Match reports The Observer, Amy Lawrence: “Chelsea’s ruthless pursuit of Manchester United continued here, which is not surprising considering the hard facts: their winning sequence in the Premiership since they last conceded any ground (or even a goal for that matter ) - two-and-a-half months ago at Anfield - is daunting for any opponent.” Sunday Telegraph, Patrick [...]
FA Cup review: Tottenham Hotspur 1 - 2 Chelsea
Match reports The Guardian, Kevin McCarra: “If the first meeting had been enthrallingly spectacular, the replay of this FA Cup quarter-final intrigued with its element of surprise. No one could have anticipated the finish with which Andriy Shevchenko opened the scoring or the volley from Shaun Wright-Phillips that doubled Chelsea’s lead.” The Times, Matt Dickinson: “Even [...]
FA Cup preview: Tottenham Hotspur v. Chelsea
Here we go again. Just two days after demolishing Sheffield United, Chelsea travel the short distance to White Hart Lane for an FA Cup sixth round replay. The first meeting at Stamford Bridge produced a classic (for the neutral) 3-3 draw which will be spoken of for many seasons to come. Trailing 1-3 at half time, Jose [...]
FA Cup review: Chelsea 3 - 3 Tottenham Hotspur
Match reports Daily Telegraph, Henry Winter: “Jose Mourinho once accused Spurs of parking the “team bus” across the goalmouth at Stamford Bridge, but yesterday they performed like a stylish limo, driving all over Chelsea before running out of gas following Thursday’s trip to Braga. In a high-octane FA Cup quarter-final, Spurs’ counter-attacking was terrific. So was [...]
