VIDEO: Dawson slams Spurs’ critics

Tottenham captain Michael Dawson said his side have some ‘great players’ on Friday ahead of their home match against Manchester United on Sunday.

The club has been the focus of intense media coverage this week after the embarrassing 6-0 defeat at Manchester City. Everyone, most notably the Tottenham fans will be expecting a massive improvement from the players and staff of the club – we need to show pride and battle for every ball. We are playing at the Lane and need to attack!

Dawson said: “Two months ago or six weeks everyone was raving how well we gelled and what have you. It’s amazing what one result seems to turn people’s opinions. Look, we’ve got a fantastic squad in that dressing room. Great players. The boys who’ve come in are fantastic lads. We want to be successful as a full squad and we have to do that. Things don’t always go like we want them to and last week it didn’t. But we stay strong, mentally we’re all together and we know what our aim is. Come the end of the season to be in the top four and hopefully we can bring some silverware back.”
