With lingering delays in the new Tottenham stadium, Mauricio Pochettino's men had to face a dreaded pitcher for having installed thousands of seats during a fight Anthony Joshua at the end of September, putting in Three NFL stage games in one month and two games in England in the space of four days – as well as the requirements of their own Premier League home games.

Chelsea, of Cudicini, was eliminated 3-1 at the national stadium during a Premier League match on Saturday. He said about the field: "That's a little better, but the end remains a potato field. Playing on this field is not easy. Odd, right? Wembley was a temple, the English stadium par excellence.

"This is one of the worst absolutes. The Inter will also have to deal with this problem. "

Tottenham must beat Inter Wednesday to give himself a chance to get out of Group B against all odds.

Cudicini believes that despite a terrible playing surface, Pochettino's players have all the clbad and all the resilience they need.

He said: "At the time, the Spurs were a club looking for a dimension.

"Today, they are constantly in the Champions League, they have a lot of young top players and the club has broadened its horizons, such as the decision to restructure White Hart Lane."
