“Even if it is a cup game, we have to be focused on that game (now). “We need to work hard and analyse what went wrong (at Leicester) and move on. “We don’t have time to think too much because we have to recover as soon as possible and be ready for Tuesday if we want to have a good game and win.
“There is a lot of frustration, but we need to move on.” Spurs are still yet to win away in the Premier League since January. Tottenham face Colchester United in the third round of the Carabao Cup on Tuesday, followed by a home clash with Southampton in the top flight on September 28.
