Mauricio Pochettino Says Spurs Are out of Title Race, Talks Mike Dean Incident

Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino has conceded his team are out of the Premier League title race after their shock 2-1 loss against Burnley on Saturday.

Sky Sports asked the Argentinian whether Spurs' title hopes had been sunk by the upset, and he said his team needed all three points to put pressure on Manchester City and Liverpool:

"Yes. We are very disappointed because there are 11 games, the gap can be bigger.

"Of course, there are a lot of games to play but today, in my mind, we had to win the three points to put pressure on them.
