Mauricio Pochettino has questioned the desire of his players following Sunday's shock 1-0 loss to Newcastle United.

Despite dominating possession, Spurs only managed two shots on target against the Magpies.

We created some chances. Not too many, not enough to be honest," he said.

That is why we're very disappointed with the performance and the result but we cannot justify our performance.

We should be playing better, more desire, more capacity to be more aggressive in this type of game, because 80 per cent of possession is too much for only a few shots on target."
