The former midfielder has said anyone picking the Dutch defender is \u2018living in the past\u2019.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Van Dijk\u2019s Liverpool partner Ibrahima Konate and Spurs star Cristian Romero both get in a combined Liverpool-Spurs team ahead of the 32-year-old. There is also no place for Andy Robertson, although Trent Alexander-Arnold gets in ahead of Pedro Porro.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>O\u2019Hara believes Spurs\u2019 midfield is better than Liverpool\u2019s, too, with Yves Bissouma and James Maddison picked over the likes of Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch. O\u2019Hara\u2019s team features six players from the North Londoners and five from Liverpool.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can\u2019t disagree with Alisson in goal. Guglielmo Vicario\u2019s been brilliant for Spurs and made some quality saves last weekend against Arsenal, but you can\u2019t not have Alisson in there,\u201d the 37-year-old explained to Grosvenor Sport.<\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <strong>Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp details &#8216;setback&#8217; with injury updates on quartet[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/4985075.jpg?r=1695996953393\"><\/p>\n<p>\u201cVirgil van Dijk? No! People need to stop living in the past! I\u2019ll go with Ibrahima Konate and Cristian Romero. Micky van de Ven also gets a mention \u2013 he\u2019s been unbelievable since he came in, but he doesn\u2019t get in and Van Dijk doesn\u2019t start for me either.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLeft-back I\u2019m going with Destiny Udogie over Andy Robertson \u2013 100 per-cent. Have you seen how good he is? He\u2019s been unreal for Tottenham this season. Robertson has been a quality player in the past, but we\u2019re not talking about three seasons ago anymore \u2013 we\u2019re talking about right now!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think right-back is Tottenham\u2019s weakest position, so I reckon Trent Alexander-Arnold is still good enough to get the nod there over Pedro Porro. He used to be one of the best in the world, though based on current form I wouldn\u2019t say that.<\/p>\n<p>We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you&#8217;ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

James Maddison is there as well, so it\u2019s two Tottenham players in the middle three.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The final player is Dominik Szoboszlai \u2013 I\u2019ve been impressed with him since he joined Liverpool. I think that midfield would have quite a nice balance to it too. Up front I\u2019m going with Mohamed Salah, Heung-min Son and Luis Diaz.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Spurs host Liverpool in the Premier League on Saturday evening.
