What They're Saying
Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino (via the Guardian): "Our style means we need a bigger space to play because we play a positional game. It's true that White Hart Lane is a little bit tight and it's better for the opponent when they play deep. On Sunday, there were two shots from Newcastle. It was unlucky for us and they play deep. West Bromwich play deep, Liverpool the same. They play very deep and it was difficult for us. We need time to adapt to our new set-up and to understand better our position on the pitch."
Brighton & Hove Albion manager Sami Hyypia (via the Football League): "We need to try and work hard to make the individuals better and we need to go to the transfer market to try and bring in a few players to add quality. We need to toughen up a bit, be mentally tougher and more mature to play the whole 90 minutes."
