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.

Latest Liverpool transfer news: Liverpool to complete Conor Bradley signing on 9 July
The Mirror reports that Liverpool will sign 16-year-old attacker Conor Bradley on 9 July – his 16th birthday.
The Dungannon United youngster will be signed on a two-year scholarship by Liverpool, and the report adds that the Reds are his boyhood team.
The Northern Ireland youngster has played for the Reds in youth tournaments earlier, and the report claims that the 15-year-old impressed many members at Liverpool.
Speaking to the Ulster Herald (h/t Mirror), Bradley was pleased at earning the opportunity to sign for Liverpool, but knew there was a lot of work to be done:
“But I know that the hard work is only starting. I’ll be part of the U18 squad and the good thing is I know the coaches and I know most of the boys in the team.”
The youngster added that he would be staying in familiar surroundings and was not worried about settling in. Bradley added that this was a dream for him and could not wait to get started.
Liverpool’s youth team doing well
The Reds have a lot of quality youngsters and Bradley has to work hard if he wants to feature regularly for the U18s.
Liverpool won the FA Youth Cup last season and saw starlets such as Rafa Camacho and Ki-Jana Hoever pick up first-team minutes under Jurgen Klopp.

The 16-year-old is primarily a left-back and is capable of playing as a winger too. The Spanish youngster recently moved up to the U-17 side of the Catalan giants.

The report adds that Barcelona are trying to keep hold of their star, however, the Spaniard seems set to leave the La Liga giants.
The Reds can also do with youngsters joining the academy and we have seen a couple of them break into the first-team under Jurgen Klopp.
Trent Alexander-Arnold and Joe Gomez are England internationals now, while the likes of Rhian Brewster and Ki-Jana Hoever are expected to be the next big stars for the Reds.

Transfer news: Liverpool face competition from Man United for £45m La Liga star
Latest Liverpool transfer news: Manchester United enter race for Junior Firpo
Manchester United have entered the race to sign Real Betis left-back Junior Firpo, according to Marca (h/t Mirror).
The 22-year-old had a great season with Betis, racking up three goals and providing four assists in La Liga.
The Spanish defender is currently with the U-21 national-team for the Euros and played the entire game as they defeated the Belgians 2-1.
The report claims that United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is looking to overhaul his team after a tough season.
Betis are willing to sell the talented youngster if his £45million release clause is met, and Liverpool are also interested in the defender (h/t Mirror).
The report adds that United and Liverpool are not concerned with the release clause of the 22-year-old, and Jurgen Klopp sees him as a decent addition to the team.
The Reds need to sign some cover and competition for Andy Robertson in the summer window. Alberto Moreno left the Reds on a free, and we would only have Joe Gomez and James Milner who can replace the Robertson as our the left-back.
Firpo could provide cover for another position too
The report adds that the Spanish star can play as a left-winger or as a central defender, which would provide the Reds with enough cover should Dejan Lovren leave next season.
Liverpool did have problems with the centre-back spot last season as Fabinho had to be shoehorned into the role in a few games.

The Reds could do with the versatility of Firpo as he provides cover for several players.
