LONDON (Reuters) - Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg has called on manager Antonio Conte to elaborate on his stinging criticism of the players after Saturday's Premier League draw at Southampton.
The experienced Denmark international is the first Spurs player to publicly react since Italian Conte's angry rant in a media conference following the 3-3 draw.
Speaking head of Denmark's Euro 2024 qualifiers against Finland and Kazakhstan, the 27-year-old Hojbjerg was asked for his thoughts on Conte's comments. "I understand that if you want to be successful as a team, you need 11 men who are committed to a project and a culture. But I think he has to elaborate on how he feels before you as a player can start measuring and weighing."
