Liverpool striker Roberto Firmino knows they can send a message today against Tottenham.

A morale-boosting victory over stuttering Tottenham, who lost to Liverpool in the Champions League final last season, could be crucial to bringing the dream a step nearer.

“It would show once again that we believe this is going to be our year in the Premier League. This year is our time," insisted Firmino.

“But we have to be careful. In this moment we are the leaders and we are playing well. But we haven't won anything yet. So, we are optimistic, yes - but you have to continue working game by game

“Thinking ahead is just not worth it. I learned long ago that in England, anything can happen. Just dropping two or three points can leave you missing out on the title."
