Tottenham Hotspur have not won a major trophy since 2008.
Tottenham ace Harry Kane spoke to reporters over the weekend, and delivered his verdict on his manager Mauricio Pochetitno’s recent remarks suggesting that it could take another five years for Spurs to reach a truly elite level, as quoted by the Express.
The north London outfit have experienced a difficult week, taking just one point from their last three Premier League games, and they are now realistically out of the title race.
Given the fact that they are out of both domestic up competitions, the Champions League now seemingly represents their best chance of winning a trophy this season.
Pochettino told reporters last week how it could take another five years for him to bring success to Tottenham, as quoted by Football.London:
“My worry is what happened and to change that is not only five years of work, maybe it is 10 years of work to change that thing that happened here.”
And Kane responded when asked by reporters what he made of his manager’s comments, as quoted by the Express:
“We have got to a stage in the last four or five years where we have maybe done more than we expected as a club but it means that we have to do even more to reach that next stage. Whether it’s five years or not, I can’t say. But I hope it’s sooner than that.”
First and foremost, Tottenham must qualify for the Champions League again this season.
If they manage that, then there is no excuse for not drastically strengthening their squad in the summer, because if they don’t, they could fall even further behind in their pursuit of a major trophy.
