Another semi-final against Chelsea, and another loss for Tottenham Hotspur (obviously). Why can't Spurs ever get these games across the line, even when we are underdogs? Does Conte deserve to carry some of the flack for last night's performance? What was with that Gollini selection? Just how far off the pace are Tottenham, and who can we even bring in to fix this? Will Conte stick around? And if all that wasn't cheerful enough, we then preview the Arsenal game. Joy.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/ruletheroost.
