Tottenham Hotspur 4-1 Liverpool highlights — Tottenham Hotspur trounced Liverpool with a superb all-round performance

The second Super Sunday clash in the Premier League was another affair between a Merseyside club and a north London side and the end result was the same. After Arsenal beat Everton 5-2, it was Tottenham Hotspur's turn to impress with a 4-1 win over Liverpool at Wembley Stadium.

In what was a new record crowd in the Premier League, Mauricio Pochettino's side turned on the pressure in the title race with the three points now taking them level with Manchester United. The Red Devils are second only because of a superior goal difference.

Two goals from Harry Kane, and a goal each for Dele Alli and Son Heung-Min saw Jurgen Klopp's side put to the sword with only Mohamed Salah getting on the score sheet for the Anfield side.

Here's how Twitter reacted as Pochettino finally got a win over Klopp.

One for the history books ?

Harry Kane had a day to remember...

You can count on 3 things in life

1. Death
2. Taxes
3. Goal from @HKane #coys

29 - Harry Kane has scored his first @premierleague goal at Wembley for @SpursOfficial with his 29th shot at the stadium. Duck. #TOTLIV pic.twitter.com/ctebtwS5Ym

Harry Kane scores again. Thankfully Zidane thinks Benzema is the best so they won’t be interested in poaching him.

Harry Kane is ridiculous. You watching this @realmadrid?

...while Dejan Lovren had one to forget!

Lovren seemed to have forgotten he was actually involved in a football match there. Looked a terrible shock. All those faces. The grass

Here at Wembley, Jurgen Klopp will need a big speech at half-time. But it will probably go over Dejan Lovren's head.

Liverpool could have spent that £35m Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain money on a central defender. That decision deserves to cost them the top four.
— Daniel Storey (@danielstorey85) October 22, 2017

The 1,000th goal that Liverpool have conceded in the Premier League era. They should give the plaque to Lovren.

No Liverpool player has made more defensive errors (4) in the Premier League since the start of last season than Dejan Lovren.

Struggled. ? pic.twitter.com/iJ3x0KnmMs

Spurs had Vertonghen and Toby and decided add Sanchez, we have Matip, Lovren, and Klavan and decided to make do
— Leonard Archer (@fishpainting) October 22, 2017

Pochettino made Lovren look good enough for Liverpool to sign him and has now made him look crap enough to be subbed off after 30 minutes.

I swear to god I can defend better than Liverpool and I have no legs ? #TOTLIV

Diego Maradona was at Wembley to watch the game and even he could have scored against this shambolic Liverpool defence!

Spurs could bring Maradona on and he might get a goal.

When you travel halfway around the world and Klopp takes Lovren off after half an hour. pic.twitter.com/i4Ft86eDEl

Very harsh from Jurgen Klopp to bring Dejan Lovren off when he was so close to a hat-trick of assists.

Simon Mignolet wasn't spared by fans on Twitter either.

97 - Percentage of Liverpool fans amazed it took 55 minutes for Simon Mignolet to make a mistake. Flapping.
— OptaJoke (@OptaJoke) October 22, 2017

Is there room for Mignolet next to Lovren on the bench?

So is Jurgen Klopp really the right man to lead Liverpool?

Jurgen Klopp:

Ego: Pep Guardiola
Ability: David Moyes.

Klopp P78 Pts 137 Benitez P78. Pts 144
Rodgers P78 Pts 148.

Klopp spends £40m on Oxlade Chamberlain to sit on the bench & not a penny on a keeper or defender. ??pic.twitter.com/oC1i48FxMz
— betclever (@bet_clever) October 22, 2017

Klopp only has himself to blame for not strengthening the worst defence out of the top 6.
— LFC News (@LFCTransferNRS) October 22, 2017

The thing i can't understand how under Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool renewed the contracts of Mignolet and Lovren, yet sold Sakho.

Crisis club Arsenal just three points clear of high-flying Klopp-inspired Liverpool nine games into the season.
