Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino has admitted that he is fearing the sack for the first time.

Tottenham's dismal run of form continued at the weekend after a 1-1 home draw against struggling Watford .

Spurs have won just three of their 12 games this season.

“If we don't improve our performances and results, what is going to be the result? It's always the same in football," said Pochettino.

“I understand the business, I am 47.

“Why do you think I don't have white hair? Because I don't pay attention to any of this.

“I only pay attention to the fact that we need to improve our performances."

He added: "Football is always about winning today. What happened yesterday is gone.

“Managers and coaches always need to win, today and tomorrow. Sometimes we think too far ahead. People sometimes say 'Come on gaffer you are thinking too much'. But we need to think about today."
