MAURICIO POCHETTINO has revealed it was not his decision to allow cameras behind the scenes this season and insisted he is only focused on fixing Tottenham’s recent slump.
The North London side were brutally trolled after it was announced they would be the latest side to feature in Amazon’s “All or Nothing” series.
The hit TV series documented Manchester City’s 2017-18 campaign as they won the title for the first time under Pep Guardiola with a record 100 points.
But the decision to allow cameras behind the scenes at Spurs, where Pochettino is in the midst of the worst run of his tenure, has caused widespread derision.
The club has already crashed out of the League Cup with defeat to Colchester and were thrashed 7-2 at home by Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
Tottenham’s domestic form hasn’t been too great either, with a humiliating 3-0 defeat at Brighton before the international break.
Only a late equaliser from Dele Alli helped the club snatch a 1-1 draw against winless Watford to leave them seventh in the table.
And asked for his thoughts on the club agreeing to the documentary after the match, Poch snapped: “Do you think it is a moment to talk about that?
“I am focused only in trying to stick with giving my best to turn the moment.
“That was a club decision to do a documentary about Tottenham and me as a manager I need to give my best to help the club to do what the club want.”

Pochettino recently ruled out a January signing spree as he looks to turn Tottenham’s troubled season around, and the Argentine restated his position.
He added: “I am clear with you. I don’t say yes or no. I don’t say we are going to sign or not sign, sell or not sell.
“It is not the moment to talk, when the time arrives we are going to take that decision in one way or another.
“Now is the time to stay all together, all of the squad, with the staff and the fans and try and change the atmosphere.
“We are not going to get any benefit to talk about January, it is too far away, we have got a lot of games to play.
“That is the structure of the club that is working and thinking and they need to be ready if we need to do something, if not we keep going, but I am happy with the squad, I am happy with the players.
“Like always, what is going to happen in January I cannot guess today, what happens will happen.”
