Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino was quizzed about the pressure surrounding West Ham boss Slaven Bilic, who he comes up against in the League Cup at Wembley on Wednesday evening.

"I can only empathise with Bilic, I have a very good relationship with him and wish him all the best," the Argentine said.

Asked about a manager who has been dismissed, Ronald Koeman, he adds: "Very sad news, we have a very good relationship with Ronald and I hope that he moves on and can find another job here because he's a great manager. It's a difficult period, we understand our business and it doesn't surprise us."
