Tottenham boss Pochettino not panicking over form slump

Published on: 02 December 2017

Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino insists there's no panic over their sudden form slump.

Spurs face in-form Watford at Vicarage Road on Saturday when they will be chasing their first Premier League win in four matches.

"It is so difficult because we take it so personally, the defeat. When we win I feel okay but when we lose it is like I am responsible," Pochettino said.

"I don't like to share the responsibility of the defeat but that is more personal, more how I feel. And sometimes in a few hours, in a few days sometimes it is difficult to find your space and your place to think and you need to be alone.

"But of course always it is not about you. You need to reflect when you are responsible about the team, about the staff, about everything you need to show the right message, the right emotion.

"Sometimes when you are away, you go home and go to bed quick, maybe you do different things, but here when you have the responsibility to create good feelings and emotion and atmosphere, it is important sometimes not to show too much if you are disappointed."

He added: "A few weeks ahead, maybe we win, win, win, win, and maybe we are in the top four, and we are going to talk in a different way. That is football."
