The opening day of the 2018/19 UEFA Champions League saw Tottenham Hotspur go against Inter Milan in a thrilling game.
Inter Milan, on the other hand, looked for an explosive comeback in their first Champions League game since the 2011/12 season.
Late goals from Mauro Icardi and Matias Vecino condemned the Spurs to their third consecutive defeat so far in this season.
Spurs were dominating possession for the entirety of the second half and were looking towards a definite win.
This was followed by a corner that was converted by match hero Matias Vecino who headed past the goalkeeper at stoppage time to give the team their first victory in the competition.
Speaking to the press on Monday, Pochettino said, “We still have out Hugo Lloris, Dele Alli and Moussa Sissoko. They are in London. For a technical decision, Kieran Tripper and Toby Alderweireld are there [in London] too.”
Fans have since expressed their outrage at Pochettino and the team on social media:
Fakhrul@supernaturalbroIt’s arrogance that has done for #Spurs so far this season. An arrogant belief that a team that wasn’t strong enough to win any of the major prizes, didn’t need strengthening. Ridiculous bravado. #Pochettino.

cjd78@cjd78Crisis at #spurs 3 defeats on the spin, surely #Pochettino is under real pressure to keep his job, Alli, Kane & Eriksen must be considering their futures #panic
Jordan Bolds@J_BoldsyEra67Performance was absolute bollocks. Sad part was Liverpool wasn’t all that great, very beatable, since we chose to play terrible, they deserved the victory. Sick to death of it Man, tired of the how great we are talk, but with no silverware, sick of it. Time to change. #COYS #THFC
Michael SW@mikesolwilThing is will #Pochettino actually read the fans’ response and do something about it? Can’t believe how utterly lacking in energy and passion they were today. It’s football! Try to win the game folks! Did he ever urge us on from the sidelines?
Or those questions are only reserved for Mourinho.

Fox@TheTravailsIs #Pochettino’s master plan to play shit straight long balls into the final third? When will it end. Boring. Ineffective. Spursy.
Mashed Up By Moura@rich20101982POCHETTINO OUT GET OUT MY CLUB YOU ABSOLUTE MUPPET THIS IS UR FAULT
Chrispur55@chrispur1955Tonight showed we learned nothing from Juventus. Very poor substitutions and game management from #Pochettino Totally negative approach.
Jen@jibberjabber888When is #Pochettino going to drop #Kane . Tired and creates nothing. Lucas and son upfront would be tasty! The whole #Spurs team need a kick up the arse!
