Lloris interview

Spurs captain Hugo Lloris has claimed that interim head coach Cristian Stellini is giving the squad continuity on the training pitch following Antonio Conte's departure.

"Cristian knows very well the players, he knows well the club. He's just here to give continuity and try to finish the job as good as we can," the former France No.1 said. "Again, I repeat, it is also the responsibility of everyone, not only one people more than the other. It's players, coaching staff, medical staff, all the people involved to create the right energy.

"Last week was very good. [It was] Positive and we have to stay positive and try to recover the energy and obviously results and wins give you more confidence, especially in this period that is very decisive."
