Leading 1-0 from the semi-final first leg, Spurs were blown away at Anfield as goals from Cody Gakpo, Mohamed Salah, Dominik Szoboszlai and Virgil van Dijk set up a showpiece for Arne Slot's side against Newcastle at Wembley next month.

Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou, speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live: "Liverpool were too good for us tonight. We didn't get into the game in the way we wanted to. We allowed them to get control of it. "When they get into a rhythm, we didn't give ourselves an opportunity to get a foothold in the game.

Postecoglou was asked about the France Under-21 international’s long-term future before Tottenham’s Carabao Cup semi-final second leg against Liverpool on Thursday. “He’ll be a Tottenham player,” Postecoglou said.
