Liverpool vs Spurs: 5 Ways To Stop Gareth Bale

1. Play Your Own Game

Rodgers The final solution is to not to worry about Bale and concentrate on yourself, which is probably the way Brendan Rodgers will go. Liverpool will expect to have the majority of the possession, hope to carve out more chances and score more, and when Bale does get the ball the theory will be that the defenders will do their job, with a little help from midfield, and if not Pepe Reina can make the save. It€™s could be bold and brave, or naive and stupid. Tottenham have the second best away record in the league and have bundles of pace on the counter attack. However, Liverpool have their own match winners in Suarez, Daniel Sturridge, Phillip Coutinho, and Steven Gerard, amongst others, and they should give Tottenham plenty of problems themselves. Bale has such skill and is in such form that it is nearly impossible to stop him, f he isn€™t scoring wonder goals he€™s finishing off his team mates good work. Sometimes you need to fight fire with fire, and that might be the case for Liverpool. DO you think Liverpool can cope with Gareth Bale and Tottenham? Share your thoughts below.
