Mauricio Pochettino on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer having no extra motivation to beat the man who is being linked to the permanent managerial position at Old Trafford.

“The motivation is always going to be there. When you are a manager or a coach you cannot be focused on the rumours, we have to do our job in the best way.

“Manchester will come on Sunday to try and win.

“For him is a massive motivation to manage Manchester United, in the same way it is a massive for me to manage Tottenham.”

Solskjaer on the threat posed by Harry Kane:

“He is not bad, is he? He is a fantastic goalscorer and one of the best in the world but I have got a couple that I am happy to work with.

“He is a top, top professional. I’m sure whoever plays and trains with him can talk more about him but, from the outside, he is a fantastic finisher.

“He never misses chances so let’s make sure he doesn’t get any against us.”
