I feer for us now as the Aston Villa away and Everton at home games look just as daunting as Spurs at home.

We rod our luck massively at various stages of the game. Another day that could have been a 6-0. Don't kid yourself.
Crab i wanted to start it a few weeks ago i honestly did. I held back simply because it went massively against the grain on here. Alarm bells rang for me in August.
Sometimes managers get the boot after just a few games . I felt Potter should have been one of those casualties.
He doesn't convince me at all. I'm embarrassed by the way we defend.
Losing to Spurs won't tell us much. If we fail to pick up any points against Villa (away), Everton (home) and Norwich (home) panic may set in.
By the time we play Spurs it will be October
To date we have beaten the bottom side of the league who haven't won yet and a league 1 side in a cup.
It's the way we defend and go about our business that frightens me greatly. It worried me back in August.
The only highlights for me are the kids. Even Potter had no choice to start them due to injuries, I like what i see but we are a struggling team and using kids this early in the season is another concern.
In a way this is continuum of the CH can’t buy a win form (except very rarely; Hudd at home, Watford away). Post Spurs, presumably another no-win, the habit must be broken, to give confidence.
We need Trossard back though imho.
Wait until Spurs roll us over.
This will be the game that will see our fans finally turn in there hordes and say Spence was right all those weeks ago.
Trust me it will happen.
Spurs at home WILL BE THE ONE when the boos will fill the Amex.
A 2-0 defeat at Chelsea was probably the most expected result if you looked at the bookies odds. The big blows this season were the injury time equaliser at home to Burnley when we deserved to win, Andone's crazy tackle which changed the game against Soton, and the good performance at Newcastle which also deserved 3 points.
That's the reason the league table doesn't look quite as good as it should at the moment.
You’re joking, I assume.
We always get outclassed by Chelsea in a routine win for them.
You’ve not seen spurs away from home have you?
We didn’t defend well agreed. Fortunately all Chelsea did was shoot straight at Ryan the whole time. Could have been far worse today but for poor finishing. Very hard to see where the goals are coming from.
Today we were expecting a defeat. Well i was some on here thought otherwise
It was the manner of the defeat that pisses me off. Terrible defending and once again we don't look like scoring. I see no improvement at either end of the pitch. If anything it getting worse.
I have no faith in Potter to turn it around i'm afraid. This slump is horrendous. I said i liked the look of today's team which i did. Injuries didn't help though. Look at the bench though. It's bad. Really bad for this level. When i saw it i thought somebody mixed it up with the U23 game with Spurs the other night.
How can this be after all the millions we spent ? I give up.
Is spence the most unpopular visitor to NSC of all time?
I feel like banging my head against the wall with some posters on here.
Losing away at Chelsea is no disgrace, but the lack of creativity & sloppy defending is of great concern. Potter out? No. We do need a statement from the club about getting attackers away from the team without replacements. Our attacking options look painfully weak - in all honesty I think we would be struggling to score in the Championship right now. Concerned.
Pointless post and just drivel. Hughton is long gone. It's about Potter and poor recruitment.
Great isn't it, there's another thread on here that says Ryan isn't very good, and doesn't make a save, despite being beaten by world class strikers like Aguero.
Yet when he makes lots of saves it's because all the shots have been hit straight at him!!!
Don't need to. It's an away win for me because i've seen enough of our defending this season. to say we don't stand a chance.
