With Spurs coming off a strong win against the Scum, they'll be champing at the bit and wanting a scalp at a place where historically they've been wretched. We normally wipe the floor with them at Anfield and last season Mane ran their backline ragged scoring in a 2-0 win. Liverpool also got back on track with a 3-0 win at Huddersfield and hopefully we can maintain the momentum. It helps that Pochettino's Spurs won't sit back and will come to play football. Hopefully Klopp's game plan will take into account how the front 4 of Kane, Alli, Eriksen and Son dovetail. However IMO, their heartbeat is Dembele in the way he controls midfield and is balletic in his balance and control. He completely bossesd t Pogba and Matic, almost 145M worth of talent and someone (Can or Oxlade or Firmino depending on how Klopp sets up) has to be snapping at his heels whenever he has the ball. Thoughts on the Leagues Standout game at the weekend?? PS: RedPippin stop slacking off and put up the damn match thread will ya ?

I think you are now in the Hot Seat RT. He was just keeping it warm while you was off gallivanting. We tend to do better against the top 6 teams, especially if they come to play. I had an opportunity to go to this match but couldn't rearrange my plans. I am hoping that I wish I had gone. They have quite a few games this month. It will be better for us if they stay in the FA cup and go quite far. If VVD and Matip can keep Kane quiet we will have a good chance. |

They're the team that should be doing the worrying BnB, know what you're saying about Kane but providing our midfield get it together we'll beat them. Not sure though who Klopps putting in there, probably Henderson and Can and then it's a toss up between the Ox and Gino. For me it's a similar problem at the back would like to see VVD and Lovren but think he'll stick with Matip |

Yes they should be and hopefully we get revenge for Wembley (more us imploding then them playing well). Personally I prefer Emre, Gini and Ox as the midfield three and VVD and Matip behind. We can't rely on Lovren in the big games and Hendo is coming back from an injury, do we risk him? Karius Gomez Matip VVD Robertson Emre Gini Ox Salah Firmino Mane |

I hope I'm wrong but I wouldn't be surprised to see Moreno back in place of Robertson. A huge mistake, if it happens. I think this is actually a bigger match than the citeh game as spurs are one of our competitors for a CL place and they are playing well just now. Citeh can play with a bit more freedom as pretty much certain they'll win the PL. |

I doubt it as he is coming back from an injury and Robertson is on form. Saying that, you never know with Klopp. Let's hope they wore themselves out against the scum. |

Will be totally naffed off if Moreno gets the nod instead of Robertson BnB, like you say you never know. I'm no fan of Henderson but i'm sure he'll start him on Sunday. Matip doesn't do much for me apart from making the numbers up, always find him so so, never good and never really bad, just think Lovren should be played instead, he should be geeded up after his howlers at their place |

Redpippin wasnt the one... if I recall...wasn't crofty the one who initially usurped me?? I warned him but obviously he didn't realize Swansea and West Brom were just around the corner... where is he by the way?? REDPIPPIN is on a 3 match winning run.. he's got to start the Spurs match thread.. |

Good to see you back on match threads...safe to say we had some shocking results lately ,,as a result of dodgy match threads😄 Really looking forward to the Spurs match, 2 good teams, chock full of top quality players, I don't think Spurs will pack the defence, they will come to press and play They have some top notch players, Kane and Ali, son, tripper, Should be a good game, one I think we will win 3-2😄 |

I was feeling great and optimistic until you pondered Moreno returning. Thanks for shattering my positivity. 6-0 to Spurs. |

Well is this another must win game? A win will certainly increase the daylight between ourselves and possibly our main competitor for a Top 4 position so on the basis of such - it's another 100% must win match. Also anything less than a win will probably induce the Klopp sniper brigade to come out in force, a win will also constitute another massive confidence booster.So that said, VVD back to tame the Kane man and help going some way to prove his £75 mill tag is valid? Mane to score (x2).

Termed golden fluid extraction, RT. MC, was terminated, or in Blade Runner speak was "retired", not sure whether we add defeated or undefeated to that, because of observations and determinations we which were deemed unacceptable on a Liverpool FC Forum, along with Ivan 57. God bless 'em both I'd grown rather fond of them down the years, as one does. So you keep right on to the end of the road! Cheers

You agree with the great Bill Shankly. The full quotation, sometimes mis-quoted, was "Football isn't a matter of life and death. It's much more important than that". |

Our players have been smart enough over the last few years to only say positive things about the opposition. The theory, which is one I agree with, is that running the opposition down runs the risk of antagonising them and they come out fighting more fiercely. Lloris runs a risk, in my view. |
