Tottenham Hotspur are scheduled to take on Liverpool on the 15th of September at home but it seems that the Lilywhites manager is already displeased with the fixture even before it has begun.

And the Argentine has every reason to be so because initially there were planning of hosting the game in the newly built home ground of Spurs.

But as things stand, the Spurs vs Liverpool clash has been shifted to the Wembley as the new stadium is not yet ready.




Spurs wanted the inaugurate their new home ground with the high profile fixture but the construction is way behind schedule and will not be completed any time soon.




Hence the London outfit have made an agreement with the FA to place all their home games for 2018 at Wembley.

And speaking about the shift of the venue, Mauricio Pochettino said: “I think we all feel disappointed, of course, with the announcement from the club this week.




“To not deliver for the Liverpool game is a massive disappointment for everyone.

“I understand that everyone is disappointed but our job is to try to help, to be positive, to adapt ourselves.




“We are going to play a few games more – Liverpool and Cardiff – hope they can finish all the work in that moment and then start to play in our new home.

“If that is not possible, we will give our best to try and win games, be positive.”




While the Liverpool and Cardiff games have been shorted without any complications but Spurs will definitely face an issue in relocating the match against Man City as the Wembley is set to host an NFL game on the very same day.
