Liverpool boss Arne Slot reveals he 'hopes' Tottenham win a trophy this term and insists Ange Postecoglou's side are 'a joy to watch' after being drawn against Spurs in Carabao Cup

Arne Slot says he is supporting Tottenham to win a trophy this season because of their exciting brand of football under Ange Postecoglou. The Aussie boss has come under sharp scrutiny this season for his tactics, with Sky Sports’ Gary Neville slamming their commitment to playing out from the back when under pressure.

But Liverpool head coach Slot is a huge fan and says Postecoglou’s approach is justified by results like the 4-3 win against Manchester United in the Carabao Cup quarter-final on Thursday night. ‘I really have to give them credit because if I look at Tottenham… I come from Holland but I watch a lot of Match of the Day and David Ginola, Paul Gascoigne, Luka Modric, Gareth Bale Rafael van der Vaart, they have always been a certain brand and a certain identity,’ said Slot.

‘And I think Postecoglou gives them that completely, and they are always a joy to watch. ‘Sometimes results go against them but they are one of the teams who beat Manchester City, like us, but not every team beat them in the manner we did and Tottenham did. It is completely deserved in these two situations, dominating the whole game, us and Tottenham.’.
Arne Slot made the shock revelation that he is hoping Tottenham can win a trophy this season. The two sides were drawn against one another in the Carabao Cup semi-finals with the first leg in London. Mohamed Salah and Co have been the best side in the country this term and lead the top-flight.
