Sluggish Spurs worry Pochettino

Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino admitted he is “concerned” after three successive draws called into question his squad’s ability to stay the course in the Premier League and Champions League.

“Yes, we are concerned,” Pochettino said. “It’s true we need to improve if we want to be a real contender. It’s true after two games away at West Bromwich and Bournemouth, you must win at least one. But when you analyse the whole situation, we have to give value to the point because the effort was fantastic. We had some injuries. So I am happy.”
