Mauricio Pochettino has told Tottenham fans to keep dreaming of Premier League glory but insists he will keep his own feet on the ground.
Spurs followed up a 6-2 win at Everton with a 5-0 demolition of Bournemouth on Wednesday, lifting them above Manchester City into second place in the table.
Pochettino’s side remain six points adrift of leaders Liverpool but their recent hot streak has propelled them back into the title race. “Our fans are allowed to dream all they want,” the Spurs boss said. “Here inside [the club] it’s different, of course.
“Football is about dreaming and believing but also respecting the competition and the opponent.
“Liverpool and Manchester City have the culture and the history because in recent years they have won a lot.
“We are there because we deserve to be but there is still a long way to go and we need to go step by step, always believing that we can do better, improve.
“Dreaming is important but at the same time to manage in the right direction.”
On the Bournemouth victory, which saw Christian Eriksen, Son Heung-min, Lucas Moura and Harry Kane all get on the scoresheet, Pochettino added: “I think it’s so important to keep the momentum.
“I’m very pleased because we had one day less to prepare for the game – Bournemouth played one day before us [at the weekend].
“I think to arrive and show that energy and that level is a fantastic thing for us and we need to be sure to be ready for next Saturday here again [against Wolves].” (Goal)
