Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino says he doesn't insist on a common style of play running through the club's youth teams.
Pochettino says no set system is employed by the clib's coaches.
"I believe that in the training process we must emphasise the potential of the players," he told L'Equipe. "We cannot put them in a system. Just because the first team plays in one way, would it be necessary to repeat the same moves with kids of fourteen or fifteen? No.
"I give young footballers the possibility to have a maximum of information, to be able to work according to different philosophies. We want to train complete players who can adapt to any situation.
"On the other hand, it's not the same thing when one speaks about values: to be professional, disciplined, to have a feeling of belonging. Many characteristics form the identity of a club, which I want to be taught.
"But if we talk about the technical profile, I respect those who want to put this in place, but it is not my idea."
