Tottenham legend Gary Lineker says manager Tim Sherwood is wrong to have criticised his players in public.

Sherwood blasted the Spurs team defeated by Chelsea last weekend.

On Twitter, Lineker said: "Fascinating, honest but ultimately, I feel, unwise public condemnation of his own players by Tim Sherwood. Private, always the best way.

"There is no quicker way to lose the confidence and trust of your players than to slag them off publicly."
