Tottenham boss Pochettino denies freezing out Adebayor

Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino insists he's not freezing out Emmanuel Adebayor.

The striker has not featured in any of Spurs' last five matches.

Pochettino said: "My relationship with Ade? It's a good relationship, the only problem is I need to pick 18 players for every game.

"Now I am picking (Harry) Kane or (Roberto) Soldado but the relationship is good."
