'He feels free' - Pochettino credits Sissoko for turnaround in form

The manager believes that Tottenham fans have helped the France midfielder find his best form

Mauricio Pochettino believes the support from Tottenham fans has helped Moussa Sissoko to find his feet in his team.

Sissoko, 29, has been in good form and impressed in the 3-1 win over Chelsea on Saturday.
