Mauricio Pochettino has dismissed recent comments made by Gary Neville relating to Tottenham Hotspur sides of the past.

Former Manchester United defender Neville, who currently works as a football pundit on Sky Sports, claimed that Spurs teams have been “flaky” and “pathetic” for 30 years during a discussion following their 1-0 defeat to Manchester City last Monday.

But Pochettino was quick to brush aside the comments yesterday, having seen his side move into the Premier League’s top four following a 3-2 win against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux.
