Tottenham’s points can’t be analysed with out additionally addressing their harm issues.
They at present have 10 first-team gamers out and that tally might rise to 11 after Richarlison went down clutching his calf within the first half and had to get replaced.
James Maddison is a transparent miss in the course of the park and, with Dominic Solanke and Brennan Johnson on the record of casualties too, Spurs struggled for an outlet.
Liverpool overpowered Spurs’ three-man midfield as Yves Bissouma had a tricky time, giving the ball away for the hosts’ opener, and Rodrigo Bentancur supplied little in defence or assault.
“Once I take a look at these three midfield gamers at present, they have been a shame,” mentioned former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher.
“Get after them, be aggressive, possibly overlook the ball for the primary half an hour. It was simply really easy for Liverpool.”
Son Heung-min has additionally been unable to succeed in the heights he has in earlier seasons and barely seems like the person to give you a second of magic.
Carragher added: “It goes again to that stereotype all of us have with Tottenham. There’s undoubtedly a psychological block with the membership.
“Proper now, that may be a typical Tottenham group. Folks say about Ange, the followers have gotten Spurs again, they have their membership again.
“Yeah… they have the membership again we have all watched for 40 years. They’re good on the attention when issues are going effectively, however they by no means win a giant sport and once they get beat, they get beat badly.”
