Mauricio Pochettino refused to criticise his players after Tottenham’s 2-0 defeat at Chelsea on Wednesday night.
When asked what was missing from Spurs’ performance, Pochettino simply replied: “Goals.”
He went on to say the result doesn’t change his assessment of the players and insisted Tottenham must remain calm despite back-to-back defeats.
Watch Pochettino’s post-match press conference below.
Kieran Trippier’s disastrous own goal capped a difficult night for Spurs, who fell behind to a Pedro strike on the hour.
The visitors failed to create enough meaningful chances, but for the most part it was even game and Tottenham will be frustrated they didn’t leave with a point.
Won’t waste my time listening to his meaningless and pathetic comments.
