All eyes will be on Jurgen Klopp today but it’s arguably Mauricio Pochettino who has the biggest job on his hands today.
With Eric Dier suspended and Nabil Bentaleb and Ryan Mason injured, Spurs look short in central midfield. Dele Alli will almost certainly play, probably with Mousa Dembele alongside him.
Further forward the injury to Heung-Min Son will probably ensure that Nacer Chadli keeps his place, despite not being in the best of form of late. Chadli should be joined by Christian Eriksen and Erik Lamela, with Harry Kane leading the line.
Here’s our Spurs team to face Liverpool. What’s yours?
Mauricio Pochettino’s quiet revolution at Tottenham has supporters excited about the future
dembele and ali are good players but neither is a holding midfielder . we might get murdered
Bring in Wimmer and play Toby in the holding role.Also N’jie instead of Chadli.
Dier will be a big miss in midfield today, i don’t like Dembele but there is nobody else! Mason, Bentaleb are still out, Chadli needs to up his game or be benched, give Njie a game on the wing instead and why is Rose 2nd choice to Davies? would have Rose in at left back.

Subs : vorm, rose, njie, chadli, trippier, wimmer, carroll
Play Rose as a holding midfielder next to Alli with Davies at LB or play Wimmer in place of Dier alongside Alli. Rest of team picks itself, would allow Chadli to start with Clinton and Carroll as first sub options. Alli Carroll to start would be too much a risk for me today
