The Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino believes that the construction of the new stadium can climb at the level of the club`s biggest European grandees. The Londoners have had no loss in this season at their White Hart Lane and this trend is the basis of good performance during the season.
Tottenham is expected to play at their new stadium with 61 000 places in the 2018-2019 year.
`We have talked a lot and we believe that when the new stadium opened the doors, it will help the club to reach the last level. That is our expectation, because the training base, the new facilities, and the new stadium will put the team on the last level in Europe.`
`It is true that there is a disappointment because of the missed title in the Premier League. The second position is a fantastic asset for us with 80 points and without the defeat at White Hart Lane during the season.`, said Mauricio Pochettino.

Ruud Gullit became the assistant of Advocaat
The Dutch legend Ruud Gullit was appointed the assistant to Dick Advocaat who today was expectedly confirmed as the head coach of the team for the third time.
The European champion with the Tulips from 1988 and one of the greatest players in the history of the country, was a tv analyst, as he has not been a coach since 2011 when for a short time he was the head of the Russian Terek.
It is interesting that during the first stay of Advocaat at the helm of the Netherlands (1992-94), the two were in conflict, as Gullit was even announced he was leaving the team before changing his mind. Before the 1994 World Cup he finally gave up after a dispute with the new coach, but now it seems the two are still in a kind of rocky relationship.
Advocaat, who in September will reach the age of 70 years, will become the oldest coach of the Tulips, improving the achievement of Guus Hiddink, who upon his leaving in June 2015 was at the age of 68.
His return to the team for the third time, however, was not welcomed by all, as the boss of Reading, Jaap Stam announced that the Federation should look to a guy with different and fresh ideas, instead of returning to familiar names.

Graeme Souness compared Liverpool with Manchester United from the 80s
The former football player and manager of Liverpool Graeme Souness compared Merseysiders with Manchester United from the 80s of the last century.
`Our supporters are puzzled by their team. Liverpool plays well against big teams and slips against small teams.`, Souness claimed.

`And that is something that needs to be changed if you want to win the title. In Liverpool, it was constantly reminded to us when we were European champions or champions of England. They told us that against small teams that won`t be our most important match according leo messi of the season, but it will be certainly important for them.`, added Graeme Souness.
