Liverpool were unable to match it, and it has not taken long for the Dutch defender to show Jurgen Klopp exactly what he is missing out on.<\/p>\n<p>At just 22 years old, Van de Ven has played every minute of Tottenham&#8217;s nine Premier League games so far this season. The fact Spurs sit top of the table with the second-best defensive record in the division tells its own story regarding his impact.<\/p>\n<p>A \u00a343million signing from Wolfsburg, the 6ft 4in centre-back has adapted to life under new Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou seamlessly. Painfully for Liverpool, The Independent claim that he could have been all theirs if they pledged to make him a regular starter during summer transfer negotiations.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, senior figures at Anfield pointed to Van de Ven&#8217;s tender age and absence of Premier League experience as reasons why he may have to make do with a spot on the bench.<\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <strong>Ferdinand risks angering Maguire as Man Utd icon recommends two new defenders<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/5036012.jpg?r=1698414974349\"><\/p>\n<p>The Netherlands international therefore snubbed the Reds as rival suitors Spurs had promised him a place in the starting XI. Van de Ven is only one of numerous summer signings to have hit the ground running in north London.<\/p>\n<p>James Maddison is arguably the Premier League&#8217;s in-form player, while Guglielmo Vicario has proven a shrewd acquisition in goal. Destiny Udogie was phased into the first team at the start of the season and the 20-year-old has already made the left-back spot his own.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Advert-free experience without interruptions.<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Rocket-fast speedy loading pages.<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Exclusive &amp; Unlimited access to all our content.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p> <strong> Read more&#8230; <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Tonali ban may be bad news for Arsenal as Newcastle prepare to flex muscles[TRANSFERS] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Grealish warning signs are clear ahead of Man Utd clash as Guardiola says it all[COMMENT] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Sandro Tonali&#8217;s season over as Newcastle star handed hefty betting ban[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A lack of European football and an early exit from the Carabao Cup means that Postecoglou and co are able to focus almost solely on the Premier League.
