There was a very interesting sight in the crowd for Ireland's friendly against the Netherlands.

Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino and his assistant Jesus Perez were in the Aviva Stadium for the match, raising suspicions that they could be looking at potential signings for the 2016/17 season.

Pochettino was spotted conversing with Pat Dolan, the agent/advisor for Southampton striker Shane Long who started up front for the Boys In Green.

you'd think now spurs are in the CL they'd be going for better strikers than the 29 year old irishman, pochettino obviously doesn't think so, and sees the fight in him.

Even if he has scored 10 goals in the PL this season for southampton, I'd be shocked if they could turn him into a world class forward after all these years of not playing at the highest level.

regardless of spurs activities, we need a high performing reliable striker really as sixties talked about, DS can't be our number 1 because of injuries no matter how talented (whether that means he drops to number 2 or we sell him that's up to klopp).

could do with perhaps throwing something near the 45m mark at someone like antoine griezmann, one of chris's favourite forwards, to try and tempt athletico into selling, although griezmann himself probably won't want to come which is why it's very unlikely..there isn't many goalscorers out there who could surely take the mantle of liverpool number 1 striker next season if we're serious about mounting any sort of challenge, however it's fairly exciting to see how origi does coming back from injury. and it's worth reminding we might have to be 'challenging' to finish top 3/4 you never know how other clubs might strengthen. striker situation is quite a grey area

Apparently he was watching a young Dutch striker and not Shane Long!

No I wouldn't as why would he be brilliant for them when he hasn't for anyone else? I'm sure we could use his 10 goals a season more than them but not that badly. I say let them waste £15m on him IF Poch was there to watch him (which I doubt).

or even the world, he makes suarez look crap. I'm surprised he isn't up for the Ballon d'Or.
