***OMT*** Tottenham Hotspur v LiVARpool - Sunday April 27th 4.30pm

Exactly,

Every first touch, every movement, every pass etc will be executed at a higher level than Thursday. It's great prep for the guys.
We will likely not play our strongest eleven Sunday, so I don't think it will make much difference at all. Our league performances before the Frankfurt ties were underwhelming to say the least but was far from our first eleven on the field, yet our performances in the two legs were much improved with our strongest team out. This match will have naff all relevance to how we perform on Thursday IMO....
 
Don't see why our strongest team shouldn't start. Loads of days to rest before Thursday and it's not like we're a cohesive unit at the best of times.

Get them out there.
It's not just about rest, players do actually get injured during a football match. Especially if you have the likes of Van Dijk with free rein to kick lumps out of people....

The best teams don't make mass changes. They keep a core of about 8 and rotate the 3. Then they keep a slightly different 8 and rotate qnother 3. It is how they keep their core 15 or 16 fresh for battle.

Pep won a treble doing it.
 
Team talk should be:
"OK mates, if there's any chance of a tackle or body contact, pull out. Keep a minimum of one meter diststance to any Liverpool player at any time. Don't run, we don't want to get tired."

In fact we should field the under 18 team. Or the ladies team. They'd have as much of a chance anyway.

And dont put your head not Jota's foot...

Exactly. People calling for the kids to play. We should have our team out, the spine at least and make changes as and when. I mean which of them is playing so well that missing them on Thursday would be terminal?
 
What's humiliating about tomorrow? i don't get that narrative. We aren't competing for the title so liverpool securing it v us is neither here nor there
I would have preferred it for them to have won it last week or next. I'm already ignoring all the pre press and will ignore this game and post press love in afterwards.

What could be humiliating is how many they score.....

  • Spurs have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of the last 18 top-flight encounters.
  • Richarlison has scored four goals in his last five Premier League appearances, although Spurs have lost all four of those matches. Only Matheus Cunha (five) has scored in more defeats than Richarlison this term.
  • Spurs are 42 points behind Liverpool coming into this match. It is the second highest deficit against a side they are facing - they trailed Arsenal by 43 points when they met at White Hart Lane in April 2004, with the Gunners securing the title against them that day.
  • Spurs have conceded 10 goals against Liverpool this season, losing 6-3 in the Premier League and 4-0 in the League Cup semi-final second leg. They last conceded more against an opponent in 2013-14 when they shipped 11 versus Emirates Marketing Project, while the most goals they have let in against one team in the same season is 14 versus Chelsea in 2001-02.

That's an outstanding achievement
