The number of arrests at football matches in England and Wales reach a nine-year high, according to Home Office figures.
Netherlands defender Micky Van de Ven hopes to replicate compatriot Virgil van Dijk to become one of the best centre-backs in the Premier League. "I think Virgil was the last couple of years and this year also one of the best defenders in the Premier League, for sure," said Van de Ven, as Tottenham prepare to host Van Dijk's Liverpool on Saturday (17:30 BST).
Jurgen Klopp praised Curtis Jones for the way he adapted to the unfamiliar position of right-back against Leicester City - and joked that he sold the midfielder on the idea by making him captain. Jones, a wide forward in his youth but who now features as a number eight in midfield, filled in at right-back in the absence of the injured Trent Alexander-Arnold and Joe Gomez. Stefan Bajcetic played in the position against LASK in the Europa League last week but Klopp is wary of the Spanish youngster's workload after his injury issues at the end of last season.
