Spurs at Chelsea preview: 1 point from safety, De Zerbi's calm, and Chelsea's form crisis | The Originals

One point from safety. Eight years since we last won at Stamford Bridge. And Chelsea? Winless in seven, four straight home defeats. Could Tuesday actually be the one? I'm joined on The Originals by Stu in Dubai, Si in Switzerland and Johnny in drizzly Dublin for a Chelsea away preview that, for once in this fixture, doesn't lean on dread. We dig into the maths (one point keeps us up after West Ham's defeat), what De Zerbi said in his press conference — including his flat "no" when asked if a Spurs win would be a "miracle" — and the Italian mentality angle, comparing his approach to Conte's, Frank's and Tudor's. Plus Chelsea's form crisis (winless in seven, two goals in their last seven), the four Brighton lads in the Chelsea XI who came through De Zerbi, and Conor Gallagher returning to his old club — Si has called him for man of the match. Romero, Maddison, Tel and the keeper question all covered too. Listener questions: Linda on whether supporter culture actually changes after this season, the Jonathan / Roston debate on whether we really need a deep-lying playmaker or whether it's a unicorn position, and Danny on whether the directors have learned anything from this season's drama. The Originals is the panel show from Oh So Spurs — higher-quality, more nuanced fan content from people who've actually been through this season. Smarter than the angry-pundit register, but still fans, with the cautious belief that comes with it. If you got something out of the episode, please follow the show, drop us a rating. And to the Oh-So-33 crew — keep it lily-white. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
