Tottenham midfielder Eric Dier insists there are no splits in the squad.

But he says the north London club are in crisis after conceding 10 goals in their last two games.

“We are obviously going through a difficult period," said the England midfielder. “Is saying it's a crisis a bit too strong? No.

“If you lose like we've lost in these last two games, it's ­normal. For us, this is the worst period we've been in, but we have to be all together and push through it.

“The stuff about the squad, I know that's not the case. But it's natural these things will come up now because of the situation we find ourselves in.

“It's the first time that we've found ourselves in this position, we can't back down from it. We've got to push through it."
