Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool proved they still have a bit about them with a thumping 2-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield on Saturday.Spurs had gone into the game unbeaten in eleven matches, winning ten of those, and much fancied against Klopp’s faltering Reds side.Inspired by a fiery home crowd, Sadio Mane blitzed Spurs with two goals in two minutes to send Anfield into raptures. Holding on for what was a comfortable win in the end, Liverpool picked up their first Premier League victory of 2017.It should have been no surprise they’d get a result, as this stat from Squawka shows. They’re unbeaten in matches against the top six in the Premier League this season.
It’s a fantastic record and shows if Liverpool can sort out their consistency against the so-called weaker teams in the division then they can definitely be title contenders next season.
In the big games Jurgen Klopp is getting it done and despite a dreadful start to 2017, that must fill most Liverpool supporters with hope.
