"The intensity Liverpool started with is very hard to keep going. Tottenham are a very good footballing side themselves, and it was only a matter of time until they got themselves back into the game. 

"I'm amazed we haven't seen a goal yet..."

Another Spurs chance. Dele Alli fires in a low cross from the right and Harry Kane is at the near post but so, crucially, is Martin Skrtel for Liverpool.

Liverpool under pressure now - but Klopp appreciates defensive bravery as well as attacking quality. He spins around to the bench with a clenched fist after keeper Simon Mignolet saves from Harry Kane and Mamadou Sakho blocks the follow up from Dele Alli.

Five minutes to go until half-time, and more evidence of the size of the job on Jurgen Klopp's hands. Clinton N'Jie makes the most of a mix-up between Martin Skrtel and Nathaniel Clyne and darts towards the edge of the area before smashing in a shot that fizzes just over the bar.

Sam Fribbins: Watching Klopp is fascinating... just need an Attenborough commentary on top of it!

Bright Eugene: Spurs seem to have finally got control of the game.

What the Really: Would love to know how much farther this Liverpool team have run in the first 20 mins of this game compared to previous matches...

"Great chances for Spurs, but brilliant defending from Sakho to block the follow-up attempt. Talk about putting your body on the line.

"I expected to see the net ripple once the ball fell to Dele Alli. He perhaps needed a bit more guile, to place it rather than opting to put his laces through it."

They started slowly but Spurs are looking more dangerous at the moment, and Liverpool keeper Simon Mignolet has just made another very good stop.

Nathaniel Clyne's tackle only diverts the ball into Harry Kane's path but his low shot is kept out by Mignolet's legs. Dele Alli is first to the rebound but Mamadou Sakho throws himself in the way of his shot and Jurgen Klopp breathes again - his team got away with one there.

James Milner is having a decent battle with Danny Rose down the Liverpool right but he has caught the Spurs left-back one too many times for referee Craig Pawson. Milner becomes the first player to go into his book.

The closest we have come to a Liverpool goal so far was from a James Milner corner... and they threaten again by the same route here - this time Martin Skrtel gets on the end of it at the far post but his header is hacked clear by Harry Kane.

More signs that Spurs are coming to life as Christian Eriksen almost threads a ball through to Harry Kane. Eriksen put just a little bit too much on his pass - down to one spoonful too many of porridge this morning, perhaps?

Liverpool are not sitting back though - I don't think that is the done thing under Klopp is it? - and Divock Origi is almost set free at the other end, with the Belgian only denied by a swift interception by sweeper-keeper Hugo Lloris.

"What a save by Simon Mignolet, absolutely brilliant finger-tip stop.It came from a give-away in midfield by Adam Lallana though. If you encourage your players to play out from the back you have to accept that sometimes there will be mistakes." 

I was going to say Liverpool were looking the same, but a stray pass by Adam Lallana almost changed all that. Harry Kane pounced and then fed Clinton N'Jie, running into the right-hand side of the area, and only a superb reflex save by Simon Mignolet saved Lallana's blushes.

It is possible Mauricio Pochettino's mood might improve as this game goes on - Liverpool's latest attempts to break forward have all been snuffed out pretty easily.

Tottenham have only conceded seven goals in their first eight league games, so this is not a defence which is easily breached.

Jurgen Klopp is clearly very pleased with a lot of what he is seeing from his new Liverpool side - it is not difficult to work out how Herr Klopp is feeling. His body language tells you all you need to know.

He is happy with how Liverpool are taking on board his insistence on harrassing Spurs at every turn. The question is can they maintain it for 90 minutes?

Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino, in contrast, is a picture of frustration. They cannot get a foothold in this game.

The graphic below gives you an idea how rarely Spurs have got in the final third of the pitch in the first 20 minutes or so. The visitors are shading possession but it is fair to say that both sides are competing for possession very keenly in the centre of midfield, which is extremely congested.

MA Bennett: New manager, same old problem with Liverpool always hitting the woodwork! Much better look to the team, mind.

Said Madrid: You can already see Llopp's touch on this Liverpool side .High pressure and a very positive start.

Sweeper Keeper: Spurs not looking at the races so far. Liverpool very much on the front foot - and pressing very high.

It is very noticeable how high Liverpool are pressing Spurs in their own half, and Spurs do not seem to like it - they are getting no time on the ball. I am sure Jurgen Klopp approves.

Tottenham are yet to get inside the Liverpool area or have a shot at goal, although Clinton N'Jie just brought Simon Mignolet rushing out of his box to beat Christian Eriksen to a through-ball. Spurs then won a free-kick by the left-hand corner flag, but it was easily cleared.

Another Liverpool attack and they have plenty of men forward. Adam Lallana goes for goal himself from the edge of the area and his skidding shot is on the tame side. Emre Can, who wanted the pass, lets his team-mate know what he thinks of his decision to shoot.

Spurs are back up to 11 men because Nacer Chadli cannot continue. Clinton N'Jie is on instead.
