Pochettino says Spurs will ‘crash’ if they believe the hype

[mawspurs]

Mauricio Pochettino has warned his Tottenham players they will “crash” at Watford on Sunday if they buy into the hype that followed their victory at Manchester United on Monday. Spurs won 3-0, the first time in four visits Pochettino has tasted anything other than defeat at Old Trafford, but he refused to harness the feelgood factor.

He's dead right too. Challenging for the title is all about ignoring what's already happened and focusing 100% on what's about to happen.

You're out in front, 20 feet ahead of the nearest runner, you look over your shoulder to laugh at them and BAM! Arse over tit.

I always remember that 2-1 win over Chelsea under Jol. There were DVDs and T shirts and then... We got slammed 3-0 by Newcastle. We have to be humble and ignore the hype

We used to have a history of doing that, turning up and putting in a performance agaisnt big teams and then completely folding against smaller teams, pretty sure that's a thing of the past though.

Good. We were bloody awful in the first half at United. It was a great result but the performance had plenty of room for improvement.

Hopefully he won't get us relegated to see if you're right.
