That, according to Mabbutt, is where Pochettino will be key. "That's why the chairman's decision to bring in Pochettino was a stroke of genius. It's the youngest in the Premier League and the likes of Dele Alli, Harry Kane, Christian Eriksen, Danny Rose and Harry Winks are still improving. "The Cup win at Fulham last weekend was important after a couple of poor performances," Mabbutt, 55, said. But whereas in the past maybe Tottenham were perceived as fragile, I think under Pochettino they have grown so much in stature.
