Antonio Conte on Liverpool fans at Anfield
Conte told BBC Sport: ”It is not easy to play Liverpool at the moment, especially away with this atmosphere. For my players, it was difficult to have a lot of noise around them.”
Compliment
In our opinion, Liverpool fans should take Conte’s comments on Anfield atmosphere last night as a compliment.
Conte clearly did not enjoy the atmosphere that Liverpool fans created at Anfield last night.
It shows the power of the Liverpool supporters.
Tottenham played well against the Reds and deservedly picked up a point from the encounter.
Liverpool will be disappointed with the final result, as Manchester City now clearly have the advantage in the Premier League title race.
However, you just never know.
There could be more twists and turns in this amazing title race.
