Tottenham fans are desperate for the club to end a 10-year trophy drought.
Tottenham defender Serge Aurier is confident that the current squad at the club are talented enough to win trophies.
The 25-year-old speed machine is part of a strong group of players at Spurs, but their manager Mauricio Pochettino is still waiting for his first piece of silverware.
Pochettino has overseen a brilliant progression at the North London club in the last four years, but a lack of trophies is still the dark cloud hanging over him.
Spurs were beaten by 2-1 Manchester United in the FA Cup semi-final last season and missed out on Premier League titles in the last few years.
But Aurier is adamant that Spurs have more than enough quality players to end the run without a trophy.
“The team is good enough to win trophies, look at the squad, look at the players. It’s big you know? We have good strikers, midfielders and defence. Now it’s about belief,” Aurier told Football.London.
“Just believe and go. Last season we lost the semi-final against United and afterwards I saw the players and they were so sad because they wanted to win, but don’t stop. I believe in this team because it has so much quality. We just need to believe.”
Aurier is a modern day full-back that arrived at Spurs from Paris Saint-Germain last summer, but the club didn’t strengthen their options in the most recent window.
The right-back – who earns £80,000-a-week, according to Spotrac.com – is battling alongside England international Kieran Trippier for the regular starting position in the team.
Pochettino’s side fortunately do get plenty of opportunities to rotate their side during hectic schedules and Aurier may be involved against Watford in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday.
