Pochettino rued the missed chances after the match. He said: 'We are talking a lot from the beginning about how this group of players is very young.

'They are young in age and it is their first time in the Premier League. They need to feel the adaptation and, of course, it's about confidence.

'It's also about quality. It's about many things.

'We should score if we want to win the games and now it's difficult because after the game we feel very disappointed.

'We need to learn from these types of games.'
