Pochettino admits his side were tired against Wolves

However, goals from Willy Boly, Raul Jiminez and Helder Costa secured all three points for Nuno Espirito Santo’s side.The defeat, coupled with Liverpool’s thrashing of Arsenal, means Spurs are nine points off the Premier League leaders – a week after critics claimed they were in the hunt for the title.However Pochettino admitted fatigue has placed a massive stain on his squad.“I think it was in the last 20 minutes, Pochettino said. I think a few minutes before we conceded the first goal from the corner I think that was the moment that we started to miss some energy.2

The Premier League table (correct as on 29/12/18 at 9pm)

We started to show a lack of concentration and focus on the game, maybe because the team is tired and of course the schedule and the fixture list is so tough!“And we were a little bit unlucky because, in the moment that we wanted to provide the team with some fresh eneergy with Oliver Skipp, we concede a goal.“Then its impossible to change anything and of course, the game was tough.“In the last 15 to 20 minutes it was so tough for us.” Spurs will travel to a rejuvenated Cardiff City side on New Year’s Day hoping to reduce the gap at the top.Failing that, they then face Tranmere Rovers away in the FA Cup – a competition their Argentien boss will surely want to take seriously.
