Tottenham boss, Mauricio Pochettino recently said Liverpool are ‘on a completely different level’ ahead of the clash against the reds, which he eventually lost 2-1 hours ago.
Before the match, Tottenham were 3rd on the table level on points with fourth-placed Manchester United after their own victory over Watford.
His words to SkySports, “You cannot compare [Liverpool and Tottenham],”
“When Klopp arrived at Liverpool it was only about focusing on building a team that could compete and be a real contender with other teams.
“Our philosophy is completely different, we can’t compare the two projects. They are on a completely different level. In the last two transfer windows we didn’t sign one player – it’s like we are banned!
“We are focused on different things, that’s why we are different, and we must be focused on operating in different ways and still be competitive as football is the most important thing in this company.
“[Liverpool] have an unbelievable squad and every season they add more quality. So it’s normal that Liverpool, Man City, Man Utd and Chelsea are building to win and be real contenders.”
“We’re disappointed with the way we competed in the last few games,”
“There was a disconnection before Burnley and the team couldn’t find the right way to fight for the same objective.
“We were a little bit distracted and I hope these three weeks that we didn’t play made us think a little bit. We must try again to reconnect and start performing like we need to perform if we want to be real contenders for the Champions League and the Premier League.”
