EPL 2016-17: Tottenham vs Liverpool combined XI

2) Midfielders

It’s an all Spurs midfield with a pairing of Dier and Wanyama

Eric Dier

With Emre Can expected to miss today's game, Dier gets the nod ahead of the young German. Both the players have become crucial cogs for their respective sides but Can edges out Dier because of his attacking abilities. The English midfielder needs to perform well with a return of Moussa Dembele imminent.

Victor Wanyama

Another easy choice, as Wanyama is one of the best at his position in the league. Spurs have done brilliantly to sign the Kenyan as he can boss the midfield consisting of the likes of Jordan Henderson and Adam Lallana, and could be key to the match played between these sides.
