Dejan Lovren says he is ready to cope with Tottenham's high-pressing game when Liverpool travel to White Hart Lane on Saturday afternoon.

"I'm always under pressure here at the training ground when we play against each other every day!" he told Liverpool's official website.

"So I know what to expect because it's really similar [here] with our strikers pressing me.

"Tottenham is always a good pressing team, always tactically good in defending and they were not third last year without a reason.

"We need to be calm on the ball and get out as simply and as quickly as possible," he added.
