Pochettino salutes Tottenham character
In the now much publicised disagreement with fitness coach Nathan Gardiner, Andros has effectively been suspended, whether officially or unofficially and its been confirmed by Pochettino, that the player wont be considered for the Anderlecht game, one you would have expected him to probably start.
“Getting the England call-up was a very proud moment for me and my family”.
The visitors will certainly view this as a strong chance to get one over on their rivals given Arsenal’s injury problems and it wouldn’t be a surprise to see Spurs stretch their unbeaten run as a result.
Pochettino refused to say when the player would be allowed back into first team training and said that he takes discipline problems very seriously. He believes in us and it’s then a matter of us taking that chance.
“I am happy with how we develop our philosophy, we showed today the way we want to play”.
“It’s not because we have a young squad”, Pochettino said.
Spurs finished fifth in the Premier League in the Argentine’s first year at White Hart Lane, but have shown improvement this term despite their slow start to the campaign. We need to speak a little bit to arrive at the best thing for him, for his national team and for us.
It’s stated the North London sides sent scouts to watch the duo in action for their side against Valencia in the Champions League, with towering-striker Depoitre topping Mauricio Pochettino’s January wishlist.
Tottenham are in a great position to win this game and we could be in for a North London derby classic. Pochettino would have welcomed the same amount of recuperation time between matches, especially given the high-intensity pressing style he demands, but the Argentinian is confident his players will continue to adapt to the schedule they are given.
“I think this season the balance is almost ideal, but always we need to improve”. Filip Djordjevic scored a brace as the Italians moved top of group G with ten points from four games.
A lot was expected of Andros Townsend when he burst into the scene for Tottenham Hotspur a few seasons ago but unfortunately, it has to be said that the winger has not been able to fulfill his potential so far.
One of the closest groups in the competition, Group J is now led by Ligue 1 outfit AS Monaco with five points.
