Tottenham Hotspur’s 4-1 thrashing of Liverpool at Wembley Stadium last season was a loss that would have haunted Jurgen Klopp.
It wasn’t the result itself that would have infuriated the German; rather, the manner of the Reds’ meek surrender at Spurs’ adopted home.
They were two goals down after 12 minutes, following two inexcusable Dejan Lovren gaffes – the Croatian was withdrawn after half an hour – and went in 3-1 down at half-time.
By the 56th minute, Mauricio Pochettino’s side were 4-1 up, following a Simon Mignolet error, and it was effectively curtains for the Merseysiders before the hour mark.
