The Reds cruised into a 4-0 lead against Spurs by the 59th minute as Mohamed Salah and Harvey Elliott played starring roles,🔯 with Andrew Robertson and Cody Gakpo als🍎o getting on the scoresheet.
They were set up for a slightly nervous finish by Spurs, with substitute Richarlison coming on to score and assist late on to half the deficit to 4-2 by the final whistle.
"We are outstanding until we are not," the German told Sky Sp🉐orts. "It was a really gꦦood game. Tottenham can put pressure on Aston Villa again for the Champions League. In high-performance things, you need a spark.
"Anfield was a special place today. We were 4-0 up, I made the cha𒉰nges, and we lost organisation. Tottenham showed how good they could be. I was happy with the performance.
"We were good in pretty much all areas offensiv🔜ely. The passes were good. So many things were good. We stayed calm. As long as they don't break the lines, then it's fine. Let them pass. I liked🥀 our game a lot. The goals were outstanding.
"You do it when you do it and if you miꦿss it, then you miss it. If we win all three, then we can achieve the fifth-highest points tally of Liverpool.
"I would be lying if I said I was at my highest emotion, but I have another game. In two weeks’ time is another day. I have said it before, I love absol🀅utely everything about this club."
Salahܫ was restored to the starting line-up against Spurs after making headlines last weekend for a spat with Klopp on the sideline♚ before he was brought on as a substitute.
He scored the opening goal for Liverpool and became the first player in Premier League hꦕistory to score 10+ goals and provide 10+ assists in three consecutive seasons. He is also only the second player to tally 10+ in both in five separate seasons in the competition overall, after Wayne ✤Rooney.
After assꦆuring that the rift between him and Salah was resolved in the build-up to this game,🍸 Klopp was quick to praise his star man.
He added: "Mo was outsta🦩nding, 🥂he played a really good game. His side with Harvey [Elliott] was good. I was pleased for him.
"None of the boys want to play not g𓆏reat, why would they? Mo showed what he is capable ꧑of."
