Pochettino must deliver silverware at Spurs before dismissing League Cup

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino is normally guarded about giving away too much team news before a match but this week he could not have been more willing to name names.

Asked towards the end of Monday's news conference if summer signing Juan Foyth would play in the following day's Carabao Cup third round match against Barnsley, Pochettino said he would, and joked: "In the end I will have given the whole team out!"

The light-hearted moment followed a more serious explanation from Pochettino of his attitude towards the League Cup and the FA Cup.

"The project at Tottenham is to try to win the Premier League or the Champions League, the two big trophies," he said.
