Sadio Mane never parties and fresh injury worry for Tottenham
Liverpool star Sadio Mane has never been to a party or played games while Trent Alexander-Arnold is an injury concern for the Tottenham Hotspur fixture.
These are among the headlines surrounding the Reds as they prepare to face Spurs on Sunday afternoon in the Premier League.
Liverpool are taking part in their first game after the international break as they have nearly a full squad allocation to pick from. Joe Gomez is back from his injury picked up against Burnley, while Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain could also be picked!
Oxlade-Chamberlain could really make the difference as the Reds clock down towards the end of the league and Champions League campaign. The former Arsenal man will need some time to get up to speed, but could help send Liverpool to glory.
The title run is going to go down to the wire, and like we say nearly every week this is the game that could make or break the season.
Roberto Firmino was on the nasty end of Jan Vertonghen’s finger this time last year and will be hoping to avoid that sort of optical emergency again as he’ll be needed to fire Liverpool all the way to the top!
Alisson Becker has proven his value time and time again and recently showed why he’s picked over City’s Ederson for Brazil.
The Czech Republic thought they could get past him for a second time, but this incredible double save (that was caught on video) really emphasized the quality that Klopp has available to him in the squad.
