And then injury was literally to insult as Ben Davies and Moussa Sissoko limped off as rivals Chelsea dumped Pochettino’s men out of the Carabao Cup on Thursday night.The Argentine admitted both players would be checked before the weekend’s FA Cup clash against Crystal Palace on Sunday but, when asked if the club would be bringing any players, Pochettino was cautious.“I think we are going to explain after 100 times the same,” he said on Friday. “I always say that I am more than open to improve and to add players to the squad.“That is so clear. You can find on the on the internet, from all of of my press conferences, I always say the same. I am more than open.Kane has been ruled out until early March3

“Different thing is if we can find the right player who is going to help us to improve the team, the squad. But never was closed, always open.”Although Heung-Min Son is set to return after South Korea were knocked out of the AFC Asian Cup, the club’s attacking options are still stretched.Fernando Llorente has started up front on his own against Fulham and Chelsea in the past two games, scoring against the Blues at Stamford Bridge after a torrid performance at Craven Cottage.With the likes of Atlanta midfielder Miguel Almiron and Hoffenheim midfielder Jonas Hofmann linked with moves, Pochettino told Spurs supporters he would not cave under the growing pressure to sign players if they were not necessary.Hofmann has been a star performer in the Bundesliga this season3

He added: “We are open like always, the transfer windows. Different options. In England, outside of England. But that is not new, not changed.“You ask me in a different way and my answer is different to the past but I think always we were working and trying to find the right profile. If we didn’t sign it’s because we can’t sign, not because we didn’t want.“In the same time you are here with me, you know very well the numbers is limited and when you have the full squad and you have no space you cannot sign. That is the problem too.“Maybe you are open to sign but if you don’t have space in the squad you are going to sign and you need to change a player on the list that you need to put out. I think that is not right. “We have enough players, but in that business it looks like if you don’t sign, ‘Wow, what happened?’. If you don’t spend money it looks weird, no?“But that is not because we are not open, it is not because we don’t want, it is because of different circumstance, we cannot sign.”
