Why do Spurs and City fans seem to want a generate a rivalry with us? Looking at their fans on social media (i know that's a dangerous thing) there seems to be an incredible amount of sniping at Liverpool at the moment.
I'm literally not arsed about Spurs or City. No Liverpool supporter should be. OK they are a rival for Top 4 or maybe even trophies but they aren't someone we need to have a fierce rivalry with.
Everton and United are our rivals. The team we should dislike the most. Argument could be made for Chelsea as the 3rd team. But that's based on a number of factors - oil money, right wing supporter base, Mourinho, players you could despise (John Terry, Lampard, Joe Cole, Robben) being from London, playing them in the CL KO stages 4 out of 5 seasons, plastic flags etc.. They were for a time the complete opposite to what we value about our club and rivalry built up very quickly. Spurs and City have 1 or 2 elements of those things at most. They aren't important to us in terms of rivalry though we may compete for some of the same things occasionally,
