adminLIVERPOOL. — Mauricio Pochettino believes his Tottenham players have learnt from the painful experiences of last season as they prepare to kick off their English Premier League soccer campaign at Everton today. Pochettino’s side were enjoying the club’s best season since the early 1960s as they tussled with Leicester for the Premier League title. But they choked in the final weeks and a bad-tempered draw at Chelsea handed the title to Leicester before a humiliating 5-1 defeat at already-relegated Newcastle allowed bitter rivals Arsenal to pip them for second spot.That added up to a bitter close-season for Tottenham supporters, but Pochettino has been focused on making things right this time and the Argentine coach is confident his players are ready to put the past behind them at Goodison Park.
“We will try to improve and learn from the past,” he said. — AFP
