‘I would argue’: Micah Richards says Spurs are better than Liverpool in one key area

Tottenham Hotspur have a better front three than Liverpool, according to Micah Richards.

Spurs have been blessed with Harry Kane and Son Heung-min for years, but in the past few weeks, Gareth Bale has finally hit form.

The Real Madrid loanee struggled in his first few months back in North London but he’s now finally firing on all cylinders.

Kane, Son and Bale have scored 48 goals between them already this season, and in his Daily Mail column, Richards says he feels they’re the best attacking trio in the league.

“Tottenham go into the north London derby as dark horses for the top four but you would be a fool to say it is beyond them,” he wrote.

“They have some weaknesses at the back but at the top of the pitch, I would argue they have got the best front three in the Premier League.

“Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane have had that title for a long time but they are the most consistent.

“I’d say Tottenham’s front three is potentially the best because of Bale, Harry Kane and Son Heung-min can do everything.”

Spurs have hit form at just the right time, looking good for European qualification once again ahead of the big clash with rivals Arsenal.

The Gunners go into the game having failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last nine matches in all competitions – bad news for them, good news for Jose Mourinho’s side.
