“Instead we showed it one more time, last season things started to improve but we lost the character of last season. I don’t want to talk about the technical aspect, the soul is missing.
“We are not a team. We are a team that everyone is thinking of themselves. When you are like this, it can happen, you lose against Sheffield United and leave the FA Cup and Together AC Milan And to complete that run you are winning 3-1 and in the last 15 you can give them a chance to come back. I don’t see the sense of responsibility of the players.
“Now it’s difficult – we’ve been working hard with this group and moving in the right direction. We’re going backwards, I see a lot of negative positions and a lot of selfish positions and players that I don’t like I know how to beat teams, I have beaten a lot of teams in the past, winning teams.
“Now instead we’re going backwards, no one’s interested in that. I’m very frustrated about this because me and the staff live every day to think of ways to improve. Honestly, it’s time I I have to take responsibility, the employee, the club but also the player.”

“The story of Tottenham is this. Twenty years as owner and they never won anything. Why? The fault is only with the club, or with every manager who lives here. I have seen managers who were on the bench at Tottenham.
“If Tottenham want to change then it is time to change this situation. If they want to continue like this, they can change the manager, a lot of managers, but the situation cannot change. Believe me.”
Spurs also face a significant injury concern after the tear richardson Had to happen was withdrawn within the first five minutes.
