WHAT THE MANAGERS SAY
Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino on being linked with Barcelona: “I was born with a ball in my arms and I understand very well the business. I don’t take it like a flattering or a prize.
“We are in the biggest clubs in Europe. For me Tottenham is one of the biggest clubs. We are in a position where you can see we play very good football, exciting team, very good players.
“It’s normal we catch the attention of other clubs and football people. We are part of that business and our names always appear on the lists.”
Everton manager Ronald Koeman: “I follow football. I follow managers, teams, how they play. In several aspects, Tottenham play how we would like to do.
“They try to do high pressing, they have individually very good players between the lines like [Christan] Eriksen, [Dele] Alli and others. They have offensive full-backs, like we do.
“And they are trying to bring young players through the team, like we would like to do at Everton.”
