Mauricio Pochettino benefited from Marcelo Bielsa's constructive criticism and said: "Sometimes you need people who say, 'hey, come on.'"
Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino benefited from a harsh reality check during his own playing career and has suggested some of his current squad are in need of similar treatment.
Although Spurs are undefeated after their opening four Premier League games, Pochettino was critical of his players following a 2-1 Champions League defeat to Monaco this week - pointing to a "lack of passion."
The Argentinian has also been concerned by Tottenham's recent habit of starting games slowly and hinted the time had come to dish out some tough love.
