Mauricio Pochettino revealed Tottenham's 3-0 FA Cup victory at Fulham was inspired by meetings held in the wake of their defeat by Gent.
Thursday's 1-0 Europa League loss in Belgium was their second defeat in succession, and came after the poor performance that resulted in last week's 2-0 Premier League reverse at Liverpool.
They improved significantly at Craven Cottage, where Harry Kane's hat-trick secured their progress to the FA Cup quarter-finals, and manager Pochettino believed that owed to the discussions that took place.
"After Gent we had a few meetings (with the players) and the reaction was fantastic," said Pochettino, whose team are pursuing a top-four Premier League finish as well as progress in the two cup competitions.
