Pochettino disappointed after Spurs lose title at Stamford Bridge

Tottenham Hotspur manager, Mauricio Pochettino, has said he is disappointed to be out of the title race, but proud of his players.
Spurs needed to win at Chelsea on Monday, but ended up drawing 2-2 despite being two goals up at the end of the first half.
It meant that Leicester City were crowned Premier League champions for the first time in their history.
“First of all I congratulate Leicester and Claudio Ranieri and his players and supporters,” he said.
“I am disappointed because I thought we fought to be in the race.
“At 2-0 up in the first half, in the second half we have to counter and score the third but this happens. When we conceded the first goal anything can happen. Very disappointed but at the same time very proud of my players.
“It was a derby and we were fighting for the title and Chelsea were fighting. It makes us feel proud how Chelsea show big respect to us and this is the way we want to carry on next season. We respect them, we have full respect for them.
“It’s football, we are men, they are men we need to show we are strong. It was a good lesson for us, we are the youngest squad in the league, we feel very proud and our supporters need to feel proud too, we have massive potential for the future.
“We are disappointed because of the title but we need to be realistic and congratulate our players. Next season we need to be more stronger than this season and try to be in the race.”
