The Athletic has revealed that the Tottenham Hotspur dressing room is divided ahead of the visit to Anfield at the weekend. Image Credits: Imago Images Tottenham’s season has somehow found a new low just days before they head to Anfield.



The Athletic’s Jay Harris has detailed a fractured dressing room, where confidence is shattered and belief is in short supply. “Expectations are low for Sunday’s game against Liverpool but a positive performance could help them to at least regain some momentum.” He adds that “the strain of an historically bad season can be seen in this squad.

Some members who are determined to arrest the team’s decline have expressed displeasure at the application of others, who they believe are not motivated to help their cause.”​ Most damning of all is the suggestion that at least one player has mentally checked out. According to Harris, “The Athletic has even been told that one player has expressed to his team-mates that he is not too concerned by the possibility of relegation because he believes he can and will leave the club this summer.” For a side hovering just above the drop zone, that kind of attitude paints a picture of a club in open civil war.
