Spurs vs Chelsea Post-Match Musings: Why Can’t Spurs Beat the Big Four?

Once. That is the amount of times Tottenham Women haven’t beaten one of the “Big Four” in the Women’s Super League. Spurs vs Chelsea in the WSL was another frustrating day at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for the hosts. They lost 0-2 against the reigning champions thanks to goals either side of half-time. 

Martin Ho’s side wasted a huge number of opportunities, especially in the first half. Olivia Holdt came closet, smashing the bar in the 11th minute with a rocket of a shot. Bethany England was amongst those who squandered chances that really should have been taken. The outcome, in the end, was inevitable. A Chelsea goal, with Kiera Walsh hitting home from a corner. It drained all the confidence Spurs had started the game with. When Alyssa Thompson netted within five minutes of the restart, that really was that.

Beth England Interview: On Leading and the Growth of Women’s Football

Bethany England will take on her former side, Chelsea, this weekend, A couple of weeks ago, I interviewed her for the Daily Star, as she supported the Tottenham Hotspur foundation. She opened up about how cancer has affected her family, as well as why she cares about doing LGBT advocacy.

Speaking ahead of the win over West Ham, England reflected on the season so far. “We’ve obviously started the season really well in the first half. Probably one of our best campaigns that we’ve had to date,” she said. “I think we’ve probably passed the points that we got in total for last season. Keeping more clean sheets now, being tougher to be playing more exciting football, more football that the fans want to come and watch.”

Preview: West Ham vs Tottenham Women in the WSL – Sunday, 1 February 2026

No doubt about it, last week’s defeat to Liverpool was catastrophic. It ended any aspirations Tottenham Hotspur Women had of qualifying for next season’s Champions League. This week, they travel to West Ham. It is crucial Martin Ho’s side prove that result was a blip, not the start of damaging downturn in form.

Everyone around Spurs that I have spoken to this week knows it was a disaster. In a pre-match pre-match press conference, Ho said that “if you’re looking at the course of the game and the standards we set ourselves, we were nowhere near where we needed to be in terms of with the ball and the attacking third. But defensively we were two or three yards off everything.”

Liverpool vs Spurs Post-Match Musings: The Worse Performance Under Martin Ho

Mia Enderby scores second goal against Tottenham

Just because Liverpool scored in the the 94th and 95th minutes, that does not Spurs were unlucky. They were not robbed of a hard-fought away point. This was an atrocious performance long before Mia Enderby scored. It was by far the worst, and most inexcusable, showing since Martin Ho took over and revitalised the team.

Tottenham could have been behind from as early as the second minute, as Auriéle Csillag hit the bar. She went on to have other chances, demanding saves from Lize Kop. It was Ceri Holland who was the real danger, though. Josefine Rybrink simply could not stop her, and there is a strong case that Ho should have replaced his fullback.

Talking Frankly [Updated]

[Updated 24 January]

It’s been another… week at Tottenham Hotspur, ending with a pretty abysmal 2-2 against Burnley at Turf Moor. It was Christian Romero to the rescue once again, but is that enough to save Thomas Frank’s job for another round of fixtures? 

Probably.

Should it? 

 No.

The 2-0 Champions League win in the week, showed a decent level of performance. Especially in the first half. However, not beating Burnley at home is unacceptable. It reiterates many of the points below.

EXCLUSIVE: Why Spurs vs Leicester in the FA Cup Was Not Free to View

SPURSPLAY women FA Cup

Spurs Women romped through to the next round of the FA Cup last weekend, beating Leicester 3-0. However, disappointingly for those who could not attend, it was not selected by TNT Sports for broadcast. The company showed four games on fourth round weekend, a big step forward in coverage of the competition.

Having not been selected, Tottenham were allowed to show their match on the club’s streaming service SPURSPLAY. However, the arrangement meant they had to put this coverage behind the paywall.

Martha Thomas and Kit Graham Leave on Loan

A flurry of incomings have been followed by some outgoings at Tottenham Hotspur Women. Kit Graham and Martha Thomas have both left on loan. They follow Ashleigh Neville, who left Hotspur Way permanently, joining Leicester.

Kit Graham has joined Ipswich Town on loan for the rest of the season. Graham came to Spurs from Charlton Athletic in 2019, becoming a member of the club’s first ever WSL squad. In total, she has made 91 appearances and scored 11 times. This includes appearing in all five games in 2024 FA Cup run that ended with her coming on as a second half sub at Wembley. Sadly, her time in North London has been scuppered by terrible injuries.

What Does Signe Gaupset Bring to Spurs?

The first thing Signe Gaupset did in Spurs’ 1-0 win over Leicester City last weekend was make a bursting forward run. She followed that up by passing through an opponents legs. But the time she was fully in the game it was clear that Tottenham had signed a young star in the making. 

Data from Twelve Football’s Earpiece outlines her attacking credentials. She is a highly involved midfielder who attacks the box and provides for teammates with high-quality passing.
