Pochettino hints at squad rotation after Monaco loss

Tottenham could name a much-changed team against Sunderland from their Champions League loss to Monaco, Mauricio Pochettino has hinted.

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino has indicated he will rotate his squad for Sunday's Premier League game against Sunderland following their midweek Champions League loss to Monaco.

Pochettino's men were beaten 2-1 at Wembley by the Ligue 1 side and he explained the amount of energy expended in the game could lead to changes being made against David Moyes' men.

But he insisted any players who are left out will not be dropped from the team as a result of mistakes in the Champions League match.
