Pochettino family snubs posh box to roar on Spurs at away end

Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino admits his family were happier with the away fans for their win at QPR rather than in an executive box.

Pochettino took a photo of them after the game from pitchside.

"My family was in the stands, my two sons (Maurizio, 13, and Sebastiano, 20) and my older brother (Javier). They were sitting just behind the goal in the top tier.

"My brother is over from Argentina, he came over for the Capital One Cup final. They have the chance to go to the executive box or be in a better area but they prefer to sing the songs with the fans. So I took the photo as a souvenir. It was a fantastic moment for me and them. It was the first time I've done it in my career."
