Same old. We will be all over them, Kane will dive till his hearts content and a penalty will be awarded for them to take at least a point.

[True Blue]

What? The Golden boy of England doesn't dive!

[Dr. Gonzo]

This is our biggest test so far. Spurs have one of the best attacks in Europe, never mind England, so we’ll see how much of our defences good form is based on their overall quality v the quality of our opposition.

This’ll be won or lost in the midfield - whoever can starve Kane/our front 3 of service better will probably end up the winner.

Not convinced by Spurs so far this season. Draw, possible Liverpool win.

[Storts]

We'll lose 

[Danny]

Don't hold much hope for Spuds, unless they've had a drastic kick up the arse the last week then I think Liverpool will steamroll them.

[Dan+]

Fuck sake, can't read thread titles.

[Cicero]

Alli and Lloris out as well 

[Harry]

Sobering up,  maybe. 

[Harry]

We haven't been that good.  haven't clicked so It's up for grabs. 1-1 maybe or spurs to nick it with a single goal... 

[Dr. Gonzo]

I’d take Gini off for Henderson at half time. Need a bit more in the midfield and Gini is almost always invisible in away matches.

[Harry]

Agreed.

To be fair hes not going to be anything but invisible given that he's playing as the number 6 in front of the back four.

I'd give Salah the second half off as well and give Shaqiri a run out. He's so far off the pace it's untrue. 

Wijnaldum scores as we debate his departure 

[Cicero]

Sloppy from both teams 

[Dr. Gonzo]

I thought that was a bullshit goal we just got... but that’s clearly across the line. And if we didn’t get it... it should have been a penalty for the foul on VvD.

Gini’s first away goal in England!

Well i agree on Salah too so maybe he'll score next!

Der-der-der-der-der-der Gini Wijnaldum! Der-der-der-der-der-der Gini Wijnaldum!

Tottenham's defending has been uncharacteristically all over the place. Liverpool should be disappointed they haven't gotten a couple more.

[Harry]

 Is it harsh to say average keeping on that goal?

No that should have been saved outside the goal instead of inside the goal, I’d say that was poor keeping and average is going a bit light on them.

A deserved half time lead for us. Could have been more if our final ball was better. Just hope we haven't let Spurs off the hook in that first half

Yeah, very simular to the Leicester game. Well on top first 20 minutes, then let them back into it, before scoring late in the half. 

Hope we don't continue the trend of that game or else Spurs will punish us, unlike Leicester. 

Salah is doing my head in btw. Looks like he's playing half arsed. 

Oh and we have never lost a game when Wiji has scored an away goal
