Sugar brands Tottenham players' form "disgusting"

Former Tottenham owner Alan Sugar has slammed the club's foreign flops.

Struggling Spurs are 12th and were booed off the pitch at White Hart Lane after going down to defeat against Stoke.

Sugar told the Daily Star: "Many of these foreign players that were brought in see the Premier League as the land of milk and honey.

"Pochettino has got to have a very, very stern talk to those guys because they are the ones letting everybody down - including him.

"It's disgusting the way some of them have been playing.

"I'm no football expert but I have been watching the team for God knows how many years and you can see from the body language.

"A couple of guys work their hearts out and the rest of them, I don't know what they think they are doing.

"They need to be read the riot act by the manager."
