‘You don’t know what you are doing’ – What Tottenham fans told their manager at Stamford Bridge

Stamford Bridge witnessed yet another classic chapter in the rivalry between Chelsea and Tottenham, but this time, it wasn’t just about the result – it was about the implosion happening within the Spurs camp.

Chelsea came out 1-0 winners on the night, but it was the chaos in the away end that stole the spotlight just as much as Enzo Fernandez’s decisive goal.

The Argentine midfielder rose highest early in the second half to power home a header that gave Chelsea the lead – and ultimately all three points. But as the Blues celebrated, Tottenham fans turned on their own manager, Ange Postecoglou, chanting “You don’t know what you’re doing” after a puzzling substitution saw Lucas Bergvall replaced by Pape Sarr.

The boos weren’t just about the change – they were the latest chapter in a growing rebellion among the Spurs faithful. Earlier in the game, supporters vented frustration at the club’s board, and by full-time, the anger had spilled over to the manager himself. Postecoglou’s response? A sarcastic cup of the ears, only fuelling more backlash.

It’s been a turbulent few weeks for the north London club. They were embarrassed at Fulham in their last Premier League outing, and that saw Mathys Tel – yes, a Bayern player on loan – go into the away end in an attempt to reason with furious fans. Now, with their league form in the gutter and a Europa League quarter-final looming, the cracks at Tottenham are looking more like canyons.

Meanwhile, Chelsea look to be growing in confidence under Enzo Maresca. The win sees the Blues edge closer to the Champions League spots, and while this hasn’t been a vintage season, results like this – gritty, disciplined, and satisfying – give the fans something to believe in.

In contrast, Spurs’ meltdown at the Bridge serves as the perfect reminder of just how different the mood is in each camp. While Chelsea are building, Tottenham are breaking.
