Harry Kane says that Tottenham need to "bounce back" against Aston Villa after a torrid week for the club.
Jose Mourinho's side lost 2-1 to rivals Arsenal in the North London derby and followed it up with a shock Europa League exit at the hands of Dinamo Zagreb, losing 3-0 on the night and 3-2 on aggregate after extra-time in Croatia.
Mourinho stated after the loss in Zagreb that his players had not followed his instructions, stating that they "didn't look like they were playing an important match."
"If for any one of them it is not an important match, for me it is, for the respect I have for my own career and for my own job, every match is an important match. I believe for every Tottenham fan at home every match matters and another attitude is needed.
"To say I am sad is not enough. What I feel goes much further than sadness. I just left the Dinamo dressing room where I went to praise their guys and feel sorry that one team that is not my team won the game based on attitude and compromised so I feel more than sad. That's it.
"Football is not just about players who think they have more talent than others. I believe the players only realised the game was in risk when they scored the second and it went to extra time."
