Mauricio Pochettino
"The doctor and medical staff made the decision to not take the risk. There is no sense in taking that risk and making the problem bigger. We’ll see after for Wednesday against Real Madrid. Tomorrow, it’s impossible. It is a blow? Yes. You always want all the players available. It’s a problem. We want them available to play. We always believe in the collective, the squad. During the season, problems happen and you must trust all the players, all the squad. I’ve told you the players are not machines and it’s so difficult to cope with international duty, playing every three days. It’s lucky it’s not a big problem but he’s not going to play tomorrow. It’s a decision from the doctor and medical staff not to take a risk. It’s no sense to take a risk when the problem is small and we can fix it in a few days, probably. I think last season in the period he was injured you can see the stats and the games we played, win or lose with and without Harry. I'm not happy and disappointed as he is our main striker. He is one of the best, not only at Tottenham, but in Europe and the world. You will always missed your best striker. I'm not stupid."
