Tottenham players complaining about heavy Pochettino training

Tottenham players are privately complaining about manager Mauricio Pochettino's training methods.

The London Evening Standard says Pochettino's tough training methods, involving extensive fitness work, have created some doubts among his squad.

At least two players, who did not start the abject 2-1 home defeat by Stoke, are thought to have complained of extreme tiredness post-match, while forward Emmanuel Adebayor admits the squad are struggling to understand exactly what the Argentine coach wants from them. Four defeats from six home games in the league has increased the scrutiny on Pochettino.
