'Weird, no idea' - Tottenham fans can't believe what Jose Mourinho has done vs Liverpool

Tottenham take on Liverpool in the Premier League on Thursday night.

And the winners will move into the top four,with the losers lagging behind the Champions League places.

Liverpool's injury woes have opened the door for Spurs to get revenge for the late defeat they suffered at Anfield just one month ago.

And manager Jurgen Klopp has suffered a setback in the build-up to the game in north London too, with makeshift centre-back Fabinho, being utilised there because of Joe Gomez and Virgil van Dijk's absences, also missing with an injury.

That means Joel Matip is playing in the heart of defence alongside Jordan Henderson.

But while Liverpool have their problems, Jose Mourinho has made an interesting choice with his team news.

There is no Sergio Reguilon in the squad, with Ben Davies being deployed in a back three alongside Eric Dier and Joe Rodon. That means that both Serge Aurier and Matt Doherty are chosen, with one of them to be played in the left wing-back slot.

That has left the Spurs fans scratching their heads.

Jose Mourinho is sure to be queizzed on Reguilon's absence ahead of the game live on BT Sport.

Gareth Bale meanwhiel remains on the bench, with Steve Bergwijn partnering Harry Kane and Son Heung-min up front again.
