Poch wants more from Janssen

Mauricio Pochettino says Vincent Janssen has to "show more" to be guaranteed a place in his starting eleven or even his match-day squad.

Poch wants more from Janssen

The misfiring Dutch striker, who is yet to score from open play for Tottenham, since his move from AZ Alkmaar in 2016, has seen his game time limited this term, with Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son the manager's preferred striking options.

He was left out of the team's midweek 1-0 Europa League loss to Gent, and may not even feature in Sunday's FA Cup fifth-round clash with Fulham as a result of his profligacy in front of goal.

Ahead of this weekend's tie, Pochettino said: "Against Gent he was out of the squad. He needs to show more and we'll see.

"Maybe he will have the opportunity to be on the bench or play [from the start]. We cannot be sure if he will be in the squad, on the bench or start from the beginning.

"Performance is always about how the players show their quality, their belief on the training ground.

"When you select the starting XI and the bench, I try to be fair. It's normal that maybe he needs to show more."
