Great to go into this with a win against United behind us.
I woke up this morning and was smiling within seconds. Good feeling.
But you just know Anfield will be raging for a result. Some clever boxing will be called for.

Liverpool v Spurs, Anfield - Sunday 4 Feb 2018. KO 16.30
Something sticks in my craw when I hear Tottenham described as a ‘big club’. They’re not a big club. They’re a very decent team at the moment and they can draw 50,000 to Wembley when they play the likes of Stoke and West Brom, but that doesn’t make them a big club. Big clubs win Titles and do so across several decades. They have a tradition of success. Everton are a Big Club it pains me to say. Tottenham aren’t. My mate Paul supports Spurs and right now he’s badger-a-hoop, so I have to keep reminding him that his club have never won the Title in my lifetime – and I’m extremely old.
I saw the fixture earlier in the season. The 4-1 thing at Wembley. We had over 70 per cent of the possession which, as PoP will tell you, means we couldn’t win the match. But to lose by that score? That was unusual. Admittedly Dejan Lovren had a pantomime match (“he’s behind you!”) and their goalie made our goalie look even more flaky than he actually is, but it was noticeable how Spurs struggled to string three consecutive passes together for most of the game. On the break they were different. Like us in fact. Son, in particular, looked as if he’d been coached up by Klopp himself. And of course Harry Kane just needs a sight of goal and the shot is despatched. Personally I couldn’t care less whether both Bello and Bradley both baldly lied, I’d like to see Harry Kane in gaol.
But, hey, this is Anfield and Tottenham don’t like Anfield. We’ve only lost once since that Wembley calamity too – and that was to the best team in Wales. So I’m expecting a 4-1 to us this time. Sure, Tottenham are on a roll themselves at the moment. They tinkled all over Man United last night, although they struggled against a better organised Newport at the weekend. Paul tells me that it will be a comfortable victory for his team, but he’s said that on every single occasion that Spurs have visited Anfield since I’ve known him. And I’ve known him since 1984. They’re like that, Tottenham fans. Utterly deluded. It’s a great thing to be since you always come up smiling even when the rest of the world knows you’re bonkers.

If we go by form, I think we were 7-9 pts behind after Wembley, but 7 in front by Everton.
We lost 2 pts against Everton to a dive penalty, maybe 2 to WBA for Solanke's disallowed goal.
They got nothing on Kane and Alli for clear red card stamps at Emirates Marketing Project, 2 hattricks from Kane in the next 2 games when he shouldn't have been playing, plus an opener against Swansea way offside.
And we're still ahead.
All of that to me suggests our form is actually way better than theirs.
According to the Liverpool forum, we are a small team and they do not understand why we are classed as a big team and that we have no history. They say they are going to spank us and that we should be honoured to be sharing the same pitch as them.
Disappointed to see John Moss is ref.
This is epic!
So basically, all our points are pure luck, and they've only lost points because everyone and everything is against them, so therefore they're in better form!![]()

Wouldn't be surprised to see MS back for this game if anyone isn't 400% after Weds.
