Pochettino says he needs 10 YEARS to fix Tottenham's mentality as he bemoans their lack of desire after Burnley setback

'If you lose you cannot say afterwards you are a real contender. In the last 10 or 12 games of the season, you have to be strong and dominate all the aspects of the game if you want to show you are a real contender.

'What we showed on Saturday was that we are a good team, that we have good quality, but that is not enough to win a title like the Premier League.

'That's the reality. The players think the same. If you're not capable of beating Burnley when you are going for the title, then it's impossible to think that you are going to win the title.

'The reality today is it's going to be tough to win the Premier League, but because of us - not because Liverpool are much better or another team are much better. I am so frustrated because we didn't show more attitude than Burnley, we didn't show more energy than Burnley, we didn't show more ambition than them when we are fighting for the Premier League. That is what worried me.'

'It's easy to go to Chelsea and be motivated to play, and play against Arsenal or Borussia Dortmund,' he said. 'That's easy, you don't need a manager to tell you that, because that's normal. But you play for the Premier League in the big games like Burnley.

'The pitch is dry, the changing room is not so big like at Wembley - but you need to respect and the way you respect is to go there and show more ambition, more attitude, more capacity to fight and we did not.

'If we don't have the will to show that, then we don't deserve more. It's to be honest with ourselves, not to find an excuse.

'That is what is holding us back. My worry is to change that is not only five years' work, maybe it is 10 years' work.

'Of course, I have told my players this. They know very well - I told them before, during and after the game.

'I am not upset with them. I am only so surprised that we cannot build that feeling that the game (against Burnley) was going to be the most important game.'

'If my manager says we're five or 10 years away from winning a trophy, I'm on the phone to my agent': Cole warns Spurs they could lose stars after Pochettino's title claims

10375682-6753133-Joe_Cole_believes_Tottenham_s_star_players_won_t_want_to_wait_te-a-4_1551308586246.jpg

'If I'm Harry Kane and Dele Alli and my manager says we're five, 10 years away from winning a trophy, I'm on the phone to my agent,' said Cole.

'He's [Pochettino] made an improvement, but I don't see him making a change in the mentality at Spurs, because you're still seeing the same problems where you expect things like they'll lose to Burnley at the weekend.

'All your quality English players, like your Winks' and your Kanes and your Allis, have their sights set on winning Premier League titles.

'I'd personally think: "he thinks we're…" you know.'

The stadium itself is cool. Old school. Obviously the supporr is not the most passionate you'll ever see lol. Best atmosphere I have seen in the Prem was at the AMEX for Brighton's first ever PL game at Man City. Selhurst Park is up there as well

I was at that game too it was fckn madness, defo up there with best atmosphere ever, the whole day was crazy... I think what added to it was the whole journey Brighton had been through to get there... Fulham's stadium is defo unique but yeah its like a library haha...
