Poch Says...
"Today the project is completely different to Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea," Pochettino said.
"Sometimes it is difficult to speak about that because you or our fans can take it in a bad way, a negative way.
"But I think we need to take it in a positive way. We know we are building a new stadium and you know what can happen when you spend a lot of money.
"But we are in a different process, maybe when we finish the stadium we must change the project and maybe it is a moment to sign a player and spend a lot of money."
What are the odds?*
Arsenal - 19/20
Draw - 13/5
Tottenham – 3/1
*Odds correct with SkyBet as of Saturday 05th November '16
