Didier Zokora has urged Tottenham teammates to ease the pressure on manager Martin Jol by winning the next three games.

"We've got to turn things around for the fans and for the manager," Zokora told the Daily Express. "The players are totally behind Martin Jol. He is a good man and a good coach. Maybe his confidence has gone a little, but he is still a top, top manager.

"We know the way football works, but we now have three home games in a row against Getafe, Blackburn and Blackpool and after three wins everything will look a lot better.

"We have to get those victories because the manager needs it and we, the players, are desperate to start winning again."
