Tottenham are gearing up for a huge London derby once the players return after the international break. Spurs welcome Chelsea to Wembley and a win over the Blues would lift us above Maurizio Sarri’s side.
The win should also put us back in the running for the Premier League title, and more importantly, it would provide the Blues with their first loss of the season in all competitions.
Spurs shouldn’t need any extra motivation to beat the Blues but the Tottenham Twitter account decided to remind the fans of one great game where we beat Chelsea 2-1.
4️⃣ days to go…@AaronLennon12 bagged the winner in a 2-1 victory over Chelsea in November 2006 – but can you remember who scored our first goal in that game? 🤔#COYS pic.twitter.com/ECth6o4ru2

The two scorers from the day were Aaron Lennon and Michael Dawson, and if we can tap into that kind of performance, we should have a real chance of getting the three points..
It won’t be easy to beat the Blues on Saturday, but a number of fans were reminded of some great memories from the game.

That was the year I started to follow spurs massive an it was micheal Dawson who became one of my favs. I’ve always loved defender style players since. Like dier jan and I’m growing on trippier but his done some poor things lately but looks a talent.

I remember Keane dumping him on his arse got a huge cheer…. a few seconds later after that first touch from Lennon, that cheer was off the scale
