Looking forward to the clash with Liverpool High hopes for the team this year

According to the latest reports, Tottenham Hotspur‘s new signing van der Ven has told the media that the team is in great shape and they will have a new breakthrough this season.

Tottenham defender van der Ven insists they are ready to face Liverpool on Saturday and they will try to put Jurgen Klopp in a difficult position. Van der Ven said: “I don’t think we are afraid of other teams. It would be strange to be afraid of another team in a game. If you are having a game and say ‘what a good team they are’ then I don’t think it is positive.”

“We are working together to achieve our common goal. I think everything is going well and we help each other. We play for each other and we have to keep it that way. I think this could be a good year.”

“It was a tough game against Arsenal. Of course, Arsenal had chances to kill the game. We also had chances and we always wanted three points. But in the end we only had one point, we were twice behind our rivals but managed to equalize, which gave us confidence and we will continue to prepare for the game against Liverpool.”

“The North London derby is an important game. You can look at the youngsters around you and everyone is talking about it, it’s crazy when you stand on the pitch. Everyone said to me that it’s a real derby, a real duel, and it’s important that we have to be in a good frame of mind like when we play other games. The atmosphere was crazy at the beginning of the game. It was really good but I had to stay focused and do what I had to do and I think the game went well and I can’t wait to play Liverpool.”
