Wenger criticises Pochettino for discussing Spurs 'fatigue'

Former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has criticised Mauricio Pochettino for his comments about Tottenham's players struggling with "fatigue".

Pochettino made the claims after defeat to West Ham - and before last night's Champions League loss to Ajax.
