Mauricio Pochettino still believes Tottenham can win Premier League title

Mauricio Pochettino insists that Tottenham Hotspur still believe they can be champions despite Leicester City's hefty lead in the Premier League title race.

Tottenham Hotspur head coach Mauricio Pochettino has insisted that the North Londoners can still win the Premier League title, despite the lengthy gap to leaders Leicester City.

Spurs fell seven points behind last weekend by drawing 1-1 at Liverpool before the Foxes edged out Southampton to extend their lead at the summit.

"You need to believe in football that things can change," Pochettino told reporters ahead of Sunday's visit of Manchester United.

"It's important for us to be focused and prepared but we can't play when Leicester play. We can only do our job and be focused on the three points.

"We will see what happens with Leicester. It's important for us to believe and to fight. There are six games ahead and anything can happen in football."

Pochettino also revealed that Erik Lamela has recovered from a knock and is available to play this weekend, while Clinton N'Jie and Jan Vertonghen are also both fit again following knee injuries.
