Robert Griffin III Jersey in form, drawing 1-1 away to Brighton and to Manchester City.Spurs had just come off the back ofa 3-2 win againstLeicester with two 90th minute strikes from Steven Bergwijn and before that game, they had been dumped out of the League Cup semi-final by Chelsea, losing 3-0 on aggregate.To the game itself and Chelsea started much the stronger side, with Romelu Lukaku spurning a great chance in the first
