Liverpool captain Henderson: Now its all about big Spurs clash

Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson admits all focus is now on meeting Tottenham.

The Reds stay second in the Premier League, level on points with current leaders Tottenham Hotspur, after a 1-1 result at Fulham.

And Jürgen Klopp's men welcome Spurs to Anfield in midweek, providing the opportunity to return to winning ways and go top.

Speaking to Liverpoolfc.com following the Fulham draw, Henderson said: "Another big game comes quick around the corner.

"A big game for us and we need to recover well, get ready and prepare for that one.

"The Premier League is competitive and no matter what position you are in on any given day, it is always a tough game. We knew Fulham would make it difficult and they did that.

"We've just got to keep going. There's a lot of games over a short space of time but it's the same for everyone – demanding, injuries and stuff like that, but that makes us stronger as a squad.

"And the players that come out and play on a matchday will come out and give everything for the three points in the end. I think the lads did that."
