Tottenham players looked dejected after their late defeat to Southampton on Saturday
Tottenham have gone through two transfer windows without signing anyone.And after relegation-threatened Southampton came from behind to beat Spurs 2-1 on Saturday, Pochettino admitted his team might have reached their limit.He told talkSPORT: Its a difficult thing, we are talking about the last nearly five years to change a mentality.That is a clear example that we are still not mature enough. When you talk a lot and when you find a lot of solution, its only one way, its to try to change, making different decisions thats from the past.Of course, maybe that is our limit. Its a little bit sad, but maybe we need to start to think that we need to operate in a different way from the start of next season.Tottenham are just three points ahead of fifth-placed Manchester United with eight games to go in a race for a top-four spot.
