The former Spurs star said manager Mauricio Pochettino should take the blame for the loss
He said the Argentine gaffer should have started Harry Kane on the bench.
Kane was named in the Spurs starting XI for the club’s first ever appearance in a Champions League final.
The England captain had been away since injuring his ankle in the first leg of the quarter-final win over Manchester City.
Kane, however, declared himself fit earlier this week but Spurs manager Pochettino refused to confirm if he would pick his talisman.
Hoddle said he was disappointed to see Kane’s name on the sheet, with semi-final hero Lucas Moura dropping out.
“I would have loved to have seen him on the bench,” Hoddle said on BT Sport.
“I think the pace of the game, pace that Liverpool play at.
“If we were playing Juventus here today then I’d think yeah Harry Kane should start.
“The pace that Liverpool play at, the way they press, the energy.
“If it’s 60 minutes gone and you’re a little bit tired and you see Harry Kane warming up and coming on, you’re thinking…
“And if the game’s still tight, there’s extra time, he’s not going to last a whole extra time.”
