Spurs boss Sherwood repeats he has can't "trust" some players

Tottenham boss Tim Sherwood has repeated claims there are some inside his squad he cannot "trust".

While admitting new faces are likely to arrive in the summer, Sherwood was keen to stress he would not be writing off any of the current crop just yet.

Asked if he would make changes to the squad, Sherwood said: "Without a doubt - there always will be.

"Everyone gets a second chance. I am never ever going to burn bridges with players. They are asset to the football club.

"They have an opportunity to respond. It's out there now they know what's required. It's not about going 1-0 and then going and playing well it's about in adversity, who wants to roll their sleeves up.

"It's a level playing field from the kids to the money signings. No one is going to get preferential treatment just because of a price tag.

"It's about what they are doing on the pitch. I am seeing them everyday. I know the DNA of the guys, and I know the ones I can trust and the ones I can't."
