Liverpool, yes they will win the league, but they are not a patch on Man City, their football is like the old Arsenal teams, very functional, keep the ball at the back for three or four minutes at a time, then lump it forward, they grind out the one goal wins, they are not a great side. They will eventually get found out. When Spurs ran out them second half, their defence was all over the place. It is what teams have to do.

Come on sandy. I’ve been arguing with the jackals about that, but they are a very good side. They play a game tough to defend against, essentially rapid counterattacking. Great, well not like peps Barca who’d beat them by not allowing them to play their game, but they are a good side. All teams get found out eventually and they will too, but don’t underplay a good side.,

You were very lucky today. Spurs had lots missing, but still should have won that game. Liverpool hardly had a sniff second half, and Spurs missed at least three goals, a striker like Kane would have buried.

I thought they were very boring today, I couldn`t be watching that all season. Not sure how many one goal wins they have had in the Prem, but I bet it is a dozen or more. Arsenal used to play like that. And they were boring.

Shame the lino was blind and VAR is corrupt.

Even Jose hinted at it in his interview.

We had 4 good chances first half and one came off the post. We dominated the first half with 80% possession. We should have gone in with 4-0 at half half time.

We didn't play at our best and still beat you.

We should have come out of the game with a draw.

It's becoming a bit of a joke how much Liverpool have played below their best this season and won because the opposition let them off the hook.

Works both ways though we’d changed we could have scored in the first half, and we had long periods in the second half where we controlled the game and kept the ball.

Spurs did well second half, we dropped off a bit, a draw may have been a fair result but we managed the game well albeit gave up some chances to you in the second half.

Also you know full well we are a good footballing team.

Ref was very poor today Billy, favoured Liverpool for the entire game. Official made a mistake that led to the goal.

Spurs had half their team missing, and ran Liverpool ragged second half. 3-1 win for Spurs would not have flattered Spurs. Both had chances in the first half, but Spurs had three gilt edged chances to Liverpool`s zero in the second half.

Not true at all, why are you always so blind when it comes to Liverpool? You let your bias cloud your judgement

Ref was very poor mate, he let Liverpool get away with some atrocious tackles, especially on Moura, Liverpool were hacking him down like no tomorrow. Definite Red as well this afternoon completely overlooked by the Ref.

They’ve won 61 points out of a possible 63 and you’re saying they’re not very good? Come on man.

Spurs had some decent chances in the first 10 minutes too.
Open game.
Tanganga is one for the future

They also got 97 points last season which would have been enough to win the league in like 95% of Premier League seasons gone by. They’ve carried that sensational form into this season.

Liverpool are a phenomenal football team. We may not see this level of consistency from a football team again.

Very functional, not a very good team to watch. They may have the wins, but lots and lots of 1 goal victories. The sort of boring stuff your team used to play years ago.

I was not impressed with them at all today. I couldn`t watch that sort of stuff week in week out.

Dreadful tactics and team selection as usual from Jose. Only looked decent when he finally got GLC and Lamela on.

4 points from 5 games now. Lose next week and Jose will be under serious pressure.

If you were to say did it look today as though Atkinson was aware that he'd recently received a lot of criticism for seeming to be anti-Liverpool then I would say yes. Were Liverpool the better side - unquestionably, but I thought Spurs defence was pretty good.

And what sort of a team was he supposed to put on the pitch, with half the first team injured. Spurs played very well today, so why have a go at the manager.
