Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp: I am sorry, I am the wrong person to ask about [Spurs defending] because I dont like this kind of football.

"With the ball, I asked my players to show courage, because Liverpool press you in a good way. I have seen, in the eyes of my players, disappointment because we had the chance to win the game. We conceded a goal to a deflection. I thought we did that in the second half and then we concede a goal. "On Thursday, we have an important game, a London derby against our rival, our rival in this race. I think they are world-class and I think they should do more for the game. I think they are world class and I think they should do more for the game." But we will go again." Klopp added: "It was the expected game. Spurs had just over a third of possession, prompting Klopp to say: "I am sorry, I am the wrong person to ask about [Spurs' defending] because I don't like this kind of football. But we all know the situation. Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp: "I am sorry, I am the wrong person to ask about [Spurs' defending] because I don't like this kind of football.

Liverpool could only manage a 1-1 draw with Tottenham on Saturday night to hand Manchester City a significant advantage in the race for the Premier League ...

Their penultimate top-flight game is against Southampton and they will host Wolves on the final day, completing what seems to be a favourable run-in. That is why the quadruple is so unlikely, there is a reason nobody has done it in this country. "I'm not happy, but not as sad as the players are right now and it is my job to explain why something happens like this," Klopp told BBC Sport. "Harry Kane and Heung-min Son were completely rested, that is why it is so hard.

Man City will not be in the Champions League final but Jack Grealish says that won't derail their Premier League title defence against Liverpool.

That is why, in my opinion, we are the best team in the Premier League because we want to win stuff. We have the Premier League to go and play for now. Pep Guardiola's side suffered agony in the Champions League semi-final on Wednesday evening, when Real Madrid came back from two goals down at the death to force the game into extra time before going through 6-5 on aggregate.

Jurgen Klopp has criticised Tottenham's tactics and says Antonio Conte's side 'should do more for the game' after their 1-1 draw with Liverpool on Saturday ...

So that is why I cannot do it. Fine, whatever, absolutely fine, it’s just I can’t. But yes I respect everything they do. But that is my problem.

Tottenham have now come through four league meetings with Liverpool and Manchester City undefeated this season.

It’s for Spurs fans to decide what they want from their team longer-term, and the context of a rebuild usually encourages patience. If Conte delivers Champions League qualification, the identity change - and resentment of opponents unaccustomed to such resistance - will be justifiably lauded. Spurs counter-attacked with pace and purpose, ready and able to pounce on every error, as they did after 56 minutes following a loose header by Ibrahima Konate, a series of precision passes leading to Son’s goal. At Anfield - just as at The Etihad in February - Antonio Conte’s side were the opposite of everything the club once were in the toughest venues; they were organised, compact, resolute, courageous and streetwise. He summoned Naby Keita as the third substitute when the search for a late winner is usually considered 'Origi time'. He remained on the bench and Liverpool ran out of ideas. Everton tried it in the previous home game but couldn’t see it through because they do not have so many high class players, especially on the counter attack.

A look at some of the moments missed from Liverpool's 1-1 draw with Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday evening.

A confident declaration of 1-1 was, as it turned out, right on the money. What you might have missed, however, were a series of intriguing subplots throughout the day at Anfield. The result meant nothing to Liverpool in the grand scheme of this Premier League season but there was no way Reds fans were going to let that news pass without a cheer. They were, of course, classic time-wasting tactics with Spurs holding on to a 1-1 draw with just a few minutes remaining and while the boos from the Kop were likely music to Hjobjerg's ears, Van Dijk anger will have also been audible. There's been plenty to cheer from Liverpool's perspective this season but that didn't stop those on the Kop also indulging in a spot of schadenfreude at the expense of Manchester United too. Liverpool may have regained the Premier League lead on Saturday night, but there were several frustrated faces at full-time of their 1-1 draw with Tottenham.

Jermaine Jenas has criticised Liverpool superstars Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane for their performances against Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield.

Usually those crosses you see being picked out, they just looked disconnected. The former Tottenham midfielder and MOTD pundit believes that Liverpool forwards Salah and Mane could not do anything of note against Tottenham on Saturday evening. Jermaine Jenas has criticised Liverpool superstars Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane on Match of the Day on BBC One for their performances against Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield.

The cost of flights, hotels and train prices have all soared after the Reds' place in the final was confirmed.

This year's final will take place on May 28 in Paris at the Stade de France (8pm kick-off). An EasyJet spokesman said: “Like all airlines, our pricing is demand-led – our fares start low and increase the closer it is to the date of departure and as more seats are booked.” But the price skyrocketed to £4,231 for the weekend of the final.

Although Manchester City have the opportunity to move three points clear at the top of the Premier League if they beat Newcastle on Sunday, Carragher said ...

They have been magnificent so far. 'I always felt this was the real danger game for Liverpool, with the way they play. It was always going to be a tough game. 'You think everything's going Liverpool's way. 'I don't think today will be a problem [for City, against Newcastle] but I do look at the away games at Wolves and West Ham, I do think Man City will drop points in one of those two games. Liverpool dropped two potentially crucial points in the title race when they drew with Spurs

The eerie little house is believed to be more than a century old and extremely dangerous to get to.

In 2019 a historic piece of the station which remained hidden under passengers' feet for years was uncovered by builders carrying out renovation work. Engineers also found an old kettle, a cup and tongs used to move materials in the fireplace. But back in 2017, while the station was closed for 23 days for renovation works, one worker was able to take a photograph of the blackened, eerie little house complete with its chimney. “We have no plans to do anything with it, it will stay here, it’s protected beneath the tunnels and will remain locked in history forever more. Track workers would take their breaks inside the hut while on shift – and there’s still a bench and fireplace inside. The house is also dangerous and difficult to get to as there are busy, live railway tracks on either side.

But there remains a possibility they might even need a final play-off to decide the destination of the Premier League title too. Even though I’d be an understudy to Trent Alexander-Arnold for a couple of years, I’ll get in and out. As a club, we want to be in a place where games come thick and fast. “That is a blooming hard league, the Championship. Any team can win on any given day. I think they are world class and I think they should do more for the game. The two sides drew 2-2 at both Anfield and the Etihad earlier this season. However, if Pep Guardiola’s side lose one of their four remaining matches, the race is blown wide open. Speaking to the official LFC website, the Brazilian said: "In the position that we are in the league now we needed the three points, but we are still alive. Writing on Twitter, he said: "To all the red men out there. We know if we lose points in the fight against Man City, maybe it can cost the title. Big games ahead, a lot to play for , an unbelievable squad, backroom staff and ownership in tact. Former Liverpool midfielder Steven Gerrard is reportedly keen on signing ex-Reds team-mate Philippe Coutinho on a permanent deal in the summer transfer window.

Sadio Mane is a modern-day Liverpool great and the Reds cannot plan for their future without him, writes Paul Gorst.

It was a positive update on a situation that some supporters are perhaps looking at with apprehension as the forward enters the final 12 months of his deal. Like Salah, Mane's contract is currently slated to end in the summer of 2023. "That was not the reason for bringing in Luis and playing in the centre obviously suits Sadio very well, as well. With seven goals since the start of April, it's fair to assume Mane has thrived in his third positional tweak in Liverpool's front three. Nearly six years on, the 30-year-old is a modern-day legend who has done as much as any other to propel this team to greatness. It was his seventh in his last nine prior to Saturday's draw with Tottenham.

LIVERPOOL suffered a setback in their Premier League title challenge on Saturday.

I think they are world-class and I think they should do more for the game. Klopp later added: “It was the expected game. It is frustrating to drop points, but we have to recover and play the remaining games. The German ranted: "I am sorry, I am the wrong person to ask about [Spurs' defending] because I don’t like this kind of football. We have quite exciting games still coming up and we have to turn disappointment now into focus on Villa.” “I think on the ball we were just not good enough.
