Observations: Hard Work for The Reds against solid Spurs.
Let's address the issue on everyone's minds first. With only 1 point gained against Tottenham, Liverpool are now 3 points behind Manchester City if they won their game in hand. This means Jurgen Klopp and his boys now need City to lose a game rather than just draw. This makes it less likely, but it still can turn on a single result. Fingers crossed then. With that covered, onto the game itself.
The most striking thing from this game was …

A Lesson In Defending From Virgil van Dijk
Liverpool’s 2013/14 title challenge was defined by moments.
The moment Jordan Henderson saw red against Manchester City.
The moment Steven Gerrard lost his footing and Demba Ba emerged through on goal.
The moment Iago Aspas produced an abhorrent corner to set up a Chelsea counter.
All painful, pivotal nails in the coffin for Brendan Rodger’s side.

More to Mo Salah's game than goals
The Premier League has seen few goalscorers more prolific than Mohamed Salah. After hitting a record 32 last season, the Egyptian is going strong once again in the Golden Boot race. If he carries on finding the net at the current rate, he'll reach the 25-goal mark before the end of the campaign.
The battle for top individual honours with Arsenal's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Spurs' Harry Kane promises to be intense.
Salah's ultimate contribution to Liverpool's cause will almost certainly be …

A truly deserving winner.
Who cares?
Certainly not Mo Salah (well at least not …

Red Relationships and Lilywhite Hearts
Sometimes a relationship blows up and both parties end up locked in a contest to show the other what they could have had. The last time Liverpool faced Spurs in London the Reds were thoroughly and unmercifully dumped. Since that painful day, the main source of the drama, Dejan Lovren has been buried, resurrected and replaced. The man taking over for him was the right back on that October afternoon, Joe Gomez.
Simon Mignolet was the man in goal, was …
