As reported by the Independent, he said: “The rumours happen in any club when you don’t win,” he said. “That doesn’t mean they are true and you need to care or pay attention about what has happened.
“But I understand it’s the business. I am 47 – look, why do you think that I don’t have white hair?
“Because I don’t pay attention to any of this. I only pay attention to what we need to do to improve our performance.
“And if we don’t improve our performance, what is going to be the result?
“Always the same in football. Yes, you are thinking the same as me.”
TROY PARROTT has scored FOUR goals in the Uefa Youth League clash against Red Star Belgrade.
HARRY KANE has revealed he is unsure why Spurs have been struggling of late, but knows they have to beat Red Star Belgrade tonight.
The England skipper said: “We’re not getting the results we want and it’s hard to put a finger on it.
“The players are giving everything, we’re doing our best and sometimes when you have a run of form like this, things just don’t go your way in games.
“You have to get over these hurdles.
“We go into every game trying to win and the next one is Red Star, so it’s important for us to start well, to come out of the blocks with loads of energy, with the ball, without the ball and try to get ahead.”
