Spurs v Liverpool team news: Darwin benched, Richarlison starts

30 September 2023 1201 comments

Skonto Rigga

A mouth-watering clash between Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool rounds off the day’s Gameweek 7 action.

Kick-off in north London is at 17:30 BST.

The positive news for Spurs fans and many Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers is that Son Heung-min and James Maddison are fit to start.

Both players had been described as feeling “sore” by Ange Postecoglou after the north London derby but despite a disrupted week of training, they make the hosts’ starting XI.

There is only one change to the Lilywhites’ line-up from Gameweek 6, and it’s an enforced one at that.
Brennan Johnson is absent with a hamstring injury, so in comes Richarlison.

Postecoglou confirmed ahead of kick-off that Son, and not his Brazilian team-mate, would be leading the line.

As for the visitors, Jurgen Klopp doesn’t take any chances with the fit-again Trent Alexander-Arnold and names the right-back among his substitutes.

Also on the bench is Darwin Nunez, the only player to make way from the team that defeated West Ham United in the previous Gameweek.

Cody Gakpo starts in his place.

GAMEWEEK 7 LINE-UPS

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Vicario, Porro, Van de Ven, Romero, Udogie, Bissouma, Sarr, Kulusevksi, Maddison, Son, Richarlison

Subs: Forster, Skipp, Hojlbjerg, Emerson Royal, Solomon, Davies, Phillips, Veliz, Donley.

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Gomez, Van Dijk, Matip, Robertson, Mac Allister, Szobozslai, Jones, Salah, Gakpo, Diaz.

Subs: Kelleher, Endo, Konate, Nunez, Elliott, Jota, Tsimikas, Gravenberch, Alexander-Arnold.

Bit disappointed Bowen didn’t deliver more than a goal against Sheff United. Not expecting more than a 2 against Newcastle. People happy to keep?

Hard not to believe the premier league is not corrupt.

So many shocking decisions in the premier league this year (not just to Liverpool).

I'm watching a COLLEGE football game and the referees are significantly better.

After seeing Barcelona investigated, it would not surprised me.

  Hate to say it but think it will take a ref being physically assaulted for them to understand they are actually touchable and will be held accountable.
  Only profession where you can be utterly incompetent and be beyond reproach.

Two of Rashford, Saka, Odegaard to Son and Maddison for free the right thing ti do here? Using wc in gw 9

Onana
Trippier, Estupinan, Walker
Rashford, Saka, Idegaard, Mitoma
Haaland, Hojlund, Alvarez

Turner, Sarr, White, Kabore 2ft .2itb

Which two to sell? Rashford has Brentford as opposed to City so better fixture but been awful form wise. Saka and Ode have the tougher fixture but good form. Normal I’d say form over fixture but for one week I’m not sure

Some of the comments here are hilarious, I mean some of you guys are so biased against Liverpool or just being trolls I dunno but I mean just try to look at the game objectively (as some non Liverpool fans are doing tbf) The ref and VAR were atrocious today.

The Refs this season and for years to be honest, have shown they dont understand football at all and they dont understand their role, they are actually ruining the game out their own self preservation, trying to make themselves a third piece of the game rather than just someone that helps the game flow and keep things fair, some part is the ambiguous rules and the refs weird interpretation of those rules. But more so its them needing to be visible parts rather than what they should be which is fair adjudicators of this game.

The PGMOL has issued far too many apologies already this season and have issued another one today to apologise for the Diaz wrongful offside where no lines were drawn and the decision was made in secs, where it looks on to the naked eye.

Then using a still frame to send Jones off is another complete misunderstanding of the game, that has to be shown in real time if additionally slo-mo needs to be shown and the ref decides to send him off thats another thing but to just show one still frame out of context is ridiculous.

The refs have too much ego and are far too protected, they make mistakes every week and cost teams massively and it has to stop now they shd be fined or held accountable in some way, issuing apologies and then making them same mistakes the next week is beyond ridiculous.

Some thing has to change now, they are ruing the game we all love and its honestly beyond a joke now.

  They're not biased against Liverpool lol. They just don't have Salah. It was his assist for the Diaz goal, that's all these worms actually care about

  Neutral in regards to the game today. The offside was clearly onside, agreed. The red card was the correct decision going by the letter of the law and what is considered a red card challenge these days. Would not have been red years ago but it was a bad challenge. No intent to hurt the player whatsoever but it was a red card. The refs are speaking with each other when looking. At the monitor, he was shown still frame first, which I agree is strange, but he also saw it replayed back

Is the new template 343 or will it remain 352 going forwards?

Is the new template 343 or will it remain 352 going forwards? I note the number 1 in the world plays the former and the other top 4 play the latter (4OR doesn't even have Haaland!) What do you think?
