Tottenham's disciplined tactical performance at Anfield will have given Antonio Conte plenty of food for thought when it comes to what he can get out of his players next season.
Conte and Spurs are well aware of the need for strengthening his paper thin squad with quality this summer, particularly when just four injuries ensured three academy youngsters needed to take their place on the bench at Anfield.
Tottenham expect the Italian to be in charge next season, not least because he has a contract to do so but also because they are determined to build on what he has achieved so far. Spurs are now guaranteed their first top five finish since 2019 and they are hoping to go one further. It's difficult at this moment to see what better options Conte has out there than building upon the foundations he had laid in the past six months at Tottenham.
