Mauricio Pochettino: 'Tottenham Hotspur not nervous'

Mauricio Pochettino insists that Tottenham Hotspur's defeat at West Ham United was not down to nerves as the Premier League season enters its final 10-game stretch.

Tottenham Hotspur head coach Mauricio Pochettino has insisted that the club is not getting nervous with just 10 games left of the Premier League season.

Spurs missed the chance to go above Leicester City on goal difference and top of the table last night by losing 1-0 at West Ham United, ending their run of six straight league victories.

Pochettino's side now host North London and title rivals Arsenal in a huge derby on Saturday lunchtime, with Spurs three points above Arsene Wenger's side going into the match.

When asked about Spurs' defeat at West Ham today, Pochettino told reporters: "It was not nerves, it is difficult to play every game at the intensity we normally play but I am happy with the effort.

"Our squad is confident, it was only one defeat. The most important thing is that we had chances in that second half, I don't feel the squad feels pressure. We have 10 games, a lot of points to play for."

Pochettino said that there is a chance Dele Alli could start against the Gunners after only making the bench last night, while fellow midfielder Moussa Dembele could also return from his groin injury.
