TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR STADIUM — People dressed in red overalls, hoods up, faces hidden by black masks with white shapes on them, could be seen roaming the concourses before and during Tottenham’s 6-3 defeat to Liverpool.
Ange Postecoglou has sent Spurs players a message - loud and clear
Read MoreA dystopian deadly competition in which participants are willing to take huge risks for a massive cash prize, has been a bit like supporting Spurs this season: the players always 90 minutes away from murdering the competition or being murdered, with barely anything in between.
Which isn’t a bad summary of what they have become under Ange Postecoglou, the brilliantly stubborn football purist.
He had asked “Are you not entertained?” after that thrillingly bizarre Carabao Cup quarter-final victory against Manchester United three days before.
Giving Mohamed Salah that much of a loose leash, allowing one of deadliest finishers the league has ever seen – now with 172 Premier League goals to his name – to have five shots in the opening 18 minutes, is entertaining.

Fraser Forster is only standing in for the injured Guglielmo Vicario but it feels almost cruel to force him to play that way.
There’s nothing not entertaining about watching Liverpool score six goals away from home. Just not for a Spurs fan.
They’ve scored three-plus goals in a staggering 10 games. Beaten Manchester City twice (which, admittedly, is becoming less of an accomplishment as hindsight unfurls).
Ange Postecoglou's job is safe for now thanks to Tottenham's unlikely hero
Read More“They are so intense, and not afraid to take risks so when they take the ball off you they are an immediate threat,” Liverpool manager Arne Slot said.
It lasted all of five minutes before they were two behind again before the half was out.
It was very “Ange” for them to score a wonderful goal – Dominic Solanke clipping a ball over for Dejan Kulusevski to volley in – at 5-1 down with only 15 minutes left.
“Could they do it?” you wondered. You kind of thought they might.
The prize can be so marvellous for Spurs when it works. The football is maybe too deadly to last.
