Tottenham haven't got off the mark in the Premier League yet. 'Spurs' are 7th in the League with 15 points while they are 2nd bottom of their Champions League group.
To try to justify it to the press, the manager made a comparison: "It happened to Dortmund, Chelsea, United, huge clubs. River Plate in Argentina weren't so good and had to play in the Championship (Primera B).
"River Plate, uh, who are winning everything now. This kind of thing happens, but the most important thing is to be calm and make the team calm because we can lose a little confidence but we have to work on rebuilding it as soon as possible", he added.
About the rumours surrounding his exit, this is what Pochettino said. "It doesn't surprise me at all, football is like that. I am 47, almost 48. Why do you think I don't have grey hair? Because I don't pay attention to these things. All I care about is that my team get better", he said.
