Mauricio Pochettino's Full Pre-Burnley Press Conference.
Mauricio Pochettino's Full Pre-Burnley Press Conference:
🔹Mauricio Pochettino: "Yes. Both [Mudryk & Caicedo] in the squad. Then we decide if they will be available to start. It was close last week [with Carney]. This week he was training well. I still haven't decided. I need to check with Jesus and the medical staff."
🔹Mauricio Pochettino on Reece James: "He was training with the group. It's a shame he is banned for tomorrow. We are really happy in the way he is recovering. He's doing well. Hopefully he can be available after the international break [following suspension]."
Mauricio Pochettino on Ben Chilwell: "It's to judge day by day. We cannot say the period he will be out."
Mauricio Pochettino on Burnley: "Every single game is important for us. One is to get the result we need, another is to set the principle and to arrive. Tomorrow will be a tough game. They run a lot, try to play, they're doing well. We will be there to try get the three points."
Mauricio Pochettino on striker selection: "We already took the decision. They know. We will see tomorrow."
Mauricio Pochettino on back-to-back wins: "It's about balance. It's important to keep thinking in the same way that we need to improve. We were losing and not getting what we deserved. The most important is the journey. We know we need to keep improving."
Mauricio Pochettino on Marc Cucurella: "Everything is possible. He is doing well and helping the team. Brighton & Fulham he played right-back and won. But that doesn't mean he's fixed to play there. It's about to perform and show they are in condition to fight for their place."
Mauricio Pochettino: "It's a good opportunity to win again and to feel the victory. For us, the three points are really important."
Mauricio Pochettino on VAR: "I trust the car, but the driver that's the problem [laughs]. It's good this technology to use if the ball crosses the line, offside also. But maybe we can argue and discuss if the referee needs to have the last say. It's complicated. People can make mistakes. It can happen. We can accept. When that happens with technology, it's difficult to understand. It's not easy. It's about to simplify the situation. After many years, the most important is to give the power to the referees. To accept... sometimes in life the perception is different. To trust the referee. Offside and goal-line to keep. The only two to keep. At the moment, we are not happy with VAR, the people who manager. The worst... we are not happy with the referee. We need to think a little bit. One step back maybe be easier and more clear."
Mauricio Pochettino on Armando Broja: "Broja has amazing potential. It's about how he recovers from his big injury. He's a very talented player. We trust him, that's why he played against Fulham. Now he needs time to feel complete."
Mauricio Pochettino on Mykhailo Mudryk: "He's improving like all the players. Every player has special circumstances, we need to understand that. It's a big job to try to understand and apply what we believe can help to perform and improve."
Mauricio Pochettino on Moises Caicedo: "It's about time. He's a player, you already know, can perform in the Premier League. It's normal you need time to settle [after no pre-season and a new club]. We are happy. He was very good versus Fulham."
Mauricio Pochettino on Romeo Lavia: "I cannot tell you [when he's back]. Still he is not running."
