Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris admits manager Mauricio Pochettino read them the riot act after defeat to Liverpool.
Last month Spurs were battered 3-0 at home against Liverpool.
Pochettino responded with an angry debrief and an analysis session that saw him re-watch the tape 20 times.
"What happened in the changing room stays in there," Lloris told the Mail on Sunday.
Lloris's poker face slips as he says: "Of course, when you get bad results the manager's job is to say the truth to the players."
