"Spurs shouldn’t be there," Souness said. "You say to anyone at the start of the season a team is going to lose 19 games in all competitions, and yet they’ll find themselves in the final of Champions League, you’d say you are talking nonsense. "But they’ve somehow got themselves there, and I think they are fortunate to be there. "I think another way to look at it, I’m looking at it through the eyes mostly, of a Liverpool supporter, and I’d pose a question, if you were picking a team from the 22 players that were going to start the game, how many Spurs players would be in that 11? "I’m thinking as we’re standing here, Eriksen possibly in midfield, and Harry Kane, then you’ve got nine Liverpool players. But the minute you try and attach any logic to a game of football, you come unstuck."Spurs are the underdogs heading into the match with Jurgen Klopp's side at the Wanda Metropolitano, in the first all-English Champions League final since Manchester United defeated Chelsea in Moscow's Luzhniki Stadium in 2008.
