Liverpool facing Tottenham has become one of the biggest games in the Premier League in recent years. Both teams play attacking football and have two of the best managers leading them with a host of top players.
The Reds didn’t win the two Premier League clashes against Spurs last season but there were some amazing goals in the games.
The Liverpool account wanted to remind the fans of some of the top strikes against Spurs and they highlighted efforts from Luis Suarez, Steve McManaman and John Barnes.
Hoping for more of this on Saturday!

However, a number of the supporters pointed out that the video missed the fantastic goal scored by Mohamed Salah last season.
The Egyptian was brilliant in our 2-2 draw against Spurs, as the away side scored from a dodgy penalty or two. However, Salah’s effort should have been part of this list.
Nevertheless, the fans also pointed out on another goal or two that should have been included, ahead of our gigantic clash against Tottenham this weekend.
THIS HAS TO BE IN THERE

These are okay but the Flanagan goal should have topped it if not at least made the list.

ESPN pundit claims this Liverpool star is perfect to replace Luis Suarez at Barcelona
Liverpool FC transfer news: ESPN pundit claims Roberto Firmino would be a great fit at Barcelona
Roberto Firmino has to be one of the best players in the Premier League, and ESPN pundit Paul Mariner believes the Brazilian would be a great fit at Barcelona.
The Daily Star reports that Barcelona are looking for a replacement to Luis Suarez. The former Liverpool star has been excellent at the Catalans but at 32, he is nearing the twilight of his career.
Suarez isn’t the only player to have moved to the Nou Camp with Philippe Coutinho joining them last year.
Mariner was asked who would be the replacement for the Uruguayan and claimed that Firmino is the right man, even if he was going to upset a few fans (h/t Daily Star):
“Just look at some of his link up play and I think that would be perfect for Barcelona.
“I know Coutinho hasn’t done it at Barca but Firmino is a different player.
“Firmino for me does it all. He is tremendous.”
Firmino’s future set at Anfield?
The Brazilian has been wonderful under Jurgen Klopp and the German has made the forward a better player since taking over from Brendan Rodgers.
The forward also signed a new deal recently and has formed a great partnership alongside Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah.
The former Hoffenheim star does more than score goals, as he does a lot of work for the team. The 27-year-old is integral to the way we play, and it would be a major surprise if we think about selling the Brazilian.

Firmino could play for any side in the world, but thankfully he is one of us and can achieve great things under the German.

Latest Liverpool news: Joshua Kimmich claims Liverpool are favourites ahead of Champions League clash
Bayern Munich’s German international Joshua Kimmich has installed Liverpool as favourites ahead of the Champions League round of 16 clash against Bayern Munich.
The first leg takes place on Tuesday night at Anfield, and the German claims Bayern’s inconsistency and Liverpool’s form this season makes the English side the favourites (h/t Telegraph):
“Liverpool are the favourites.
“They have lost one league game all season and have let in only 15 goals. But when you look at us, we are not as consistent as before.”
Bayern have struggled a bit this season under new manager Niko Kovac and trail Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga.
The Reds have been supreme in the league losing just once but are tied on points at the top of the table with Manchester City.
Jurgen Klopp making the difference for Liverpool
Kimmich was asked a range of questions by the Telegraph and the 24-year-old spoke about Jurgen Klopp possibly becoming the Germany boss in the future.
Jurgen Klopp
The Bayern star claimed Klopp could coach any side in the world and was amazed regarding the connection the manager has with the fans and players.
“You can see how he pushes his players to another level. Every player is better with this coach.”
Klopp has had his run-ins with Bayern during his spell as Dortmund manager, and it will be interesting to see how we perform in the first leg on Tuesday.

Liverpool FC transfer news: Manchester United and PSG battle for Liverpool target Joao Felix
Liverpool have been linked with a move for Benfica’s starlet Joao Felix, according to the Mirror. However, there is a lot of interest in the 19-year-old, who has a release clause of £105million (h/t Mirror).
The report adds that Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain are “locked” in a battle for Felix, who has been dubbed as the next Cristiano Ronaldo.
Manchester City, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Arsenal and Chelsea are also admirers of Europe’s rising talent, according to the report. Ronaldo has also been seen at Benfica games, and the Mirror adds that the youngster wants to play alongside the legend one day.
However, the report claims that Juventus are not in the running for the 19-year-old with PSG and Manchester United leading the race for his signature.
Ryan Kent
Liverpool have youngsters performing away on loan
Although the Reds could do with more senior attacking options to provide cover for Mohamed Salah and co, Liverpool have a few youngsters doing well on loan this season.
Felix would cost a bomb, according to the report, while the likes of Harry Wilson and Ryan Kent have done well at Derby County and Rangers respectively.
We also have Marko Grujic doing exceptionally well at Hertha Berlin, but it seems he will be loaned out for another year.
