One of my normal midweek routines is to listen to the Jim White show on talkSPORT. But, I nearly fell off my perch when I heard Poch talking to Jim about just how many players he (Poch) and the club are looking to bring in before this summer transfer window closes.
Pochettino insists the club are ‘working hard’ on new signings and has vowed to bring fresh faces.

‘We’re going to strengthen our squad and sign some players who can help us fight – we need new energy in the team.
‘We have a very confident team who are ready to challenge again for a big season, but it’s true we have the responsibility to try to provide some new energy every season.
‘I’m sure that will happen and we`ll add some players before the end of the transfer window.
‘We are working hard to deliver that and ensure that by the end we add a few players – maybe three or four, we’ll see.
‘We are so close to making it happen.
‘The transfer market is a little bit more relaxed now. The other big sides have spent almost all their money and now it’s our moment. It’s Tottenham’s time to get involved.
‘The type of player we want to add is very specific and it has been difficult to make it happen early on in the transfer window, but we are so calm.’
Unfortunately, Poch didn’t leave any hints on which player(s) he and the club were looking at.
Another hot topic is Spurs playing at Wembley Stadium.
