LONDON -- Moussa Sissoko says he finally feels comfortable at Tottenham after initially struggling to cope with Mauricio Pochettino's intense training schedule.
Pochettino criticised Sissoko after leaving him out of the squad for the 2-1 defeat at Chelsea on Dec. 2, saying the £30 million deadline day signing from Newcastle needed to work harder and show he "deserves" to be in the team.
Sissoko responded with an explosive 30-minute cameo at Manchester United and a fine performance in Wednesday's 3-0 win over Hull City, and he explained that he finally feels comfortable with his manager's demands.
