Here are our Tottenham talking points after their dreadful derby defeat at home to Chelsea in the Premier League on Saturday night
Two Tottenham defeats to Chelsea almost exactly two years apart, yet two very different exits from the pitch for the players.
Tottenham crashed to a 1-0 defeat against Chelsea in the Premier League yesterday, and Thomas Frank will be disappointed with some of the performances.
Thomas Frank comes across as a sensible man. With his well-coiffured hair and walking holiday puffer jacket, he is the kind of man who surely owns a filing cabinet.
Moises Caicedo played a significant role in Chelsea’s 1-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.
It was the midfielder who set up Joao Pedro’s winning goal for the Blues after a great bit of pressing, while his overall performance was spectacular.
Manchester United could not extend their three-match winning run after a 2-2 Premier League draw at Nottingham Forest on Saturday.
The Red Devils went into the game with form and momentum on their side.

The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium crowd was not pleased by Spurs' efforts against Chelsea.
