Tottenham broke Manchester United's Premier League attendance record in Sunday's Wembley clash against Liverpool.

United have held the record since their win against Blackburn at Old Trafford 10 years ago, which saw 76,098 fans witness the 4-1 victory.

But Spurs surpassed that total with a record-breaking 80,827 fans watching on as Mauricio Pochettino's side faced Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool in Sunday's late kick-off.

The record-breaking attendance is in stark contrast to their Carabao Cup game against Barnsley where only 23,926 turned up for the third-round game - a third of the stadium’s capacity - and 26,251 for the pre-season friendly against Juventus.

The club acknowledged the need for increased resources following issues with its ticketing operation at Wembley, whereby fans complained of long waits for seats at the stadium - their temporary home while their new 61,500-capacity home at White Hart Lane is being built.

Other top clubs who have drawn in the biggest crowds during the Premier League season include Arsenal (59,324), Man City (51,640), Chelsea (41,499) and West Ham (56,977).
