Tottenham Hotspur may be playing to keep their place near the top of the Premier League table on Monday, but most of the focus will be on visiting Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino in his first return to Spurs since departing the club.

“I’m not going to say anything at the moment because until Monday we cannot guess,” Pochettino said of the potential reception. “The most important (thing) is people know we cannot forget what we lived together. Amazing memories and then I’m going to respect the people, how they’re going to express. It won’t change my emotions, my view, my feelings about a club where we spent an unbelievable journey.”
