However, while Pochettino's stretched squad were slipping to a sixth defeat in their last 10 English Premier League games to West Ham last Saturday, Ajax have had a full week to rest as the entire Dutch league calendar for the weekend was postponed to give them extra time to prepare.

Christian Eriksen's late strike to secure a 1-0 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion last Tuesday was Spurs' only goal in their past three games.

Son's absence means Pochettino is robbed of another goal threat, with Lucas Moura and Fernando Llorente his only striking options."The point is that we arrive where we are now because we were a team and we are going to be a team," he said.
