Tottenham`s players are highly motivated for their upcoming participation in the Champions League, said the British manager Mauricio Pochettino after the draw for the group stage.
`The Spurs fell into the same group with CSKA Moscow, Bayer Leverkusen, and Monaco.`
`The Champions League motivates every football player. With all due respect to the Europa League and the teams that play in it, but there it is not the same. The Champions League is the biggest tournament and we are all motivated for the matches adviced by 11livestream in it. I feel the same way because I`m going to be in it for the first time as a manager. It will be interesting for me, and for the players.`, Pochettino said before the start of the tournament.
Pochettino added that for him it`s not surprising what Erik Lamela did in the match against Crystal Palace. Argentine`s move against Andros Townsend became very popular on the Internet and was one of the most talked about moments of the football weekend in England.
`Lamela often tried similar things during his workout. For me, however, it is important to respect an opponent and not to humiliate him. This is the style of playing of Lamela and it is not right such a move to be celebrated, commented, etc.`, said Pochettino.
