Creating plenty. Taylor, Tarks, Bardsley, Jayrod all outstanding first half.

This has been a 1-0 murdering so far! Outstanding stuff, the best half for some time.

If we can get a second this lot will fold

Well that first half went quickly, a great effort with everyone putting in a determined shift.... Come on boys, 2 more goals in the 2nd half please.

A Bardsley overhead kick goal and I would have died a happy man.

Seriously worried that we have been so dominant and are only 1 up. We are only a one half team remember.

We've been excellent overall and should be at least 2 up.

Now the challenge is to do it for 2 halves and not just 1.

Great half. Need to be careful now, you know Mourinho will make changes at the break and they do still have a lot of quality.

Magnificent half of football from Burnley, didn't want it to end, absolutely magical and the crowd are buzzing and enjoying every minute. Spurs look utterly depressed, they cannot cope with us. Maybe a lot of them hate playing under Jose, they certainly look like it. Nevertheless, Burnley, at the moment, are brilliant.

A complete performance so far. Before we took the lead we were running at 60% possession and actually battering Spuds who simply couldn't get out

Yeah we did well. Spurs didn't really look like scoring apart from the Alli miss when they really should have took the lead.

I'm wondering if the best attacking combo is one of the bruise brothers plus one of Vydra/Jrod?

Covers all options?

Target Man with a Striker/Forward, which is always a front 2 I like. So yes.

And that was a classic Chris Wood performance. Offside within 90 seconds, blasts one over from distance and in exactly the right place to poke home. Normal service has resumed.

Wood and JRod are our best two forwards so should be first choice, but with all four fit, we'd have great options.

Along with a Spurs back three that don't seem to know what day it is. I felt slightly bad for him, but the crowd were in good voice trying to put Dier off his game early on. He hasn't really got into the game so far.

We forgot you were playing,
We forgot you were playing,
Eric Dier,
We forgot you were playing.

A bit less offensive than out earlier chant :shock:
