Poyet positive ahead of new challenge

Wednesday, 31 October 2007 08:08

Gus Poyet is confident the new regime at White Hart Lane has the ingredients at their disposal to turn Tottenham Hotspur’s season around, starting with the Carling Cup clash against Blackpool tonight.

Poyet, one of Juande Ramos’ first-team coaches, has helped take three training sessions and there will be another today before the fourth-round tie against Championship opponents.

Spurs have not won since beating Middlesbrough in the last round more than a month ago and Uruguayan Poyet has noticed a lack of belief in his short time since returning to the club - but he has also been encouraged by the talent in the squad.
