Oh god, we've not got to suffer that idiot again?

I'd forgotten about him.

Dier starts. Boost for Spurs.

Vertonghen gives Terry a sustained Leicester hug in the Spurs' penalty area - referee does nothing. Commentators say this wrestling in the penalty area will have to be addressed over summer.

He also said Cech would save Arsenal 10 points season. Pundits do come out with some strange things.

Chelsea do seem up for a game for the first time in a while.

Chelsea have quite an industrial style but it worked for so many years

We said it during last week's match and we'll say it tonight: if Kyle Walker does things like that at the Euros, he will pick up yellow and red cards.

Clattenburg being very lenient with no cards so far

and right on cue, Walker gets the game's first yellow

Should have been his 2nd though

Cool finish from Kane

Hopefully Costa gets taken out properly

Such a frail Chelsea defence.

Spurs have executed their gameplan perfectly so far; make the match scrappy and niggly, destroy Chelsea's flow, create the odd chance here and there, Kane will take it at some stage.

Chelsea need a huge overhaul to get anywhere near the title next season.

No chance Spurs are finishing this with 11 players on the pitch.

2-0 Spurs!

Poor mistake by Ivanovic to lose possession and Spurs' incisiveness did the rest.

02-05-2016

Another cool finish but not the sort of defending that Chelsea used to be associated with

DUNDEEBOY

02-05-2016

As I have said a few times recently as long as they don't lose Kane and get another striker in they will be the team to beat next season

Jason C

It's all going off now!

Pochettino will be sent off surely, a manager can't go onto the pitch and manhandle one of the opposition's players.

Looked like Dembele tried to gouge Costa's eye out there.

Half time will be arriving at just the right time to defuse this

To be honest I'd rather Leicester win it on one of their own games. Home win against Everton.. job done in front of their home fans. That's more fitting.

Assuming they win it that is!

Eye gauging. Definite retrospective ban coming

ref didn't see that but the camera did.......

to be fair Costa didn't make a big deal out of it but it didn't look good !

Dembele

If you're going to try and hurt Costa then for God's sake do it properly.
