Tottenham Hotspur’s Mauricio Pochettino has reportedly upset his players.
According to The Sun, Tottenham Hotspur players are ‘furious’ with their manager Mauricio Pochettino.
Spurs were dumped out of the Carabao Cup by a League Two side in midweek and Pochettino claimed afterwards that some of his players have ‘different agendas’.
A number of Tottenham stars were heavily linked with a move away from North London during the summer – Christian Eriksen being the most high-profile one – but the Lilywhites wound up keeping most of their big-name players.
A source told The Sun: “They feel Poch is the one with an agenda. They are not impressed with him at all and what he said has not helped at all.”
The report adds that some of Pochettino’s players believe that the Argentine will take the Manchester United job at the first possible opportunity.
This is a serious situation the former Espanyol boss. If this report is accurate in any way, it indicates that he may be losing the dressing room.
It must be noted that the Tottenham boss is a superb man-manager and a good win against Southampton this afternoon could alleviate any concerns about his personnel turning against him.
Pochettino’s side are already 10 points behind Premier League leaders Liverpool, who beat them in the Champions League final in June.
