Liverpool head coach Arne Slot was unhappy with the way Tottenham Hotspur defender Micky van de Ven tackled Alexander Isak as the Swedish striker scored the Reds' second goal on Saturday in North London, believing it was reckless - to be fair, it did result in Isak's leg getting broken. However, Spurs boss Thomas Frank obviously doesn't see it that way and believes every "true defender" makes that tackle.

He is a really good manager I still really like him. I don't know how it all went down behind the scenes, winning the Europa League then getting sacked. I didn't expect Ange to be sacked. There were a lot of rumours, and everyone was on Ange, like the media there was not a day I was scrolling on my phone and saw nothing about our gaffer. There was always something about him added the 24-year-old.

- Real Madrid hold a "genuine interest" in Tottenham Hotspur defender Micky van de Ven, according to TEAMtalk. Spurs have no intention of losing the 24-year-old leave -- who hit the headlines this week for his stunning solo goal against FC Copenhagen -- but the door could be opened if they fail to qualify for next season's UEFA Champions League, with Paris Saint-Germain also closely monitoring the situation.
