PaJimoh, read this:

As much as I dislike Miguel Delaney, read this and say he is telling lies? Even I, who is not a professional coach, I can guarantee you that if you give me that Tottenham squad of yesterday, I will fight with Nagelsmann! My team will come out like warriors and give their blood on that pitch! First thinsg first, I am playing with a dammmmn striker, Parrot is starting that game! Whether he is five years old or not, is his business! He is starting and he is giving me a performance! I dont care of he scores, but he is giving me every damnnn sweat he has in his body on that pitch!

2 of the finest indigenous coaches Nigeria ever had lost in a space of 4 days. Dear Lord, is this a sign that you are taking away from us what we failed to appreciate? I pray for forgiveness of our sins. I pray for the humility to recognize our wrongs and the humbleness and wisdom to right our ways.

Wow. JoMo changing his formation up for the first time to counteract what Chelsea will do by playing 3 at the back. Dele rides the bench likewise Aurier. Tanganga is beneficiary today of that move as he goes back to his preferred RB. This match is going to question Ndombele's fitness as he now starts is expected to last at least 60 minutes if not the entire 90. Seems the lineup will be 3-4-3:

Lo Celso * Lucas * Bergwijn
Davies * Winks * Ndombele * Tanganga
Jan * Toby * Sanchez

My hope is that we won't sit back too much giving Chelsea a free ride at attacking our goal. That Ndombele will find his touch and dominate the midfield like we know he can. Good luck guys. COYS!!!

I wish Jose well. I am out to see how he deals with 3 men. Frank is trying to replicate Leipzig unfortunately (or fortunately) he doesnt have forwards with the movement of Werner.

I would have played Lamela. But it's also a good option to have Lamela and Dele come in.

The selection looks very defensive but I hope they learn something from the latter stages of Leipzig and take the fight to Chelsea.

Hugo had to be alert as Mount tried him on his near side. Good save.

Chelsea beginning to ask a few questions of Spurs' defense.

There was venom in that Giroud strike. Hope the home team can ride that goal to a W.

Midfield is disjointed so far.

Winks bags a yellow for getting caught with the ball.

Ndombele needs to stronger and stop rolling on the floor.

Ndombele is not imposing his will on this midfield instead he is been pushed and shoved around quite easily.

The entire team is disjointed. This team is BAD. Defenders know nothing about defending. Some cannot make SIMPLE pass.
