Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino does not think it would be embarrassing if his side were knocked out of the Champions League at the group stage.
Spurs have to beat PSV at Wembley tonight if they are to have any chance of extending their stay in the competition until after Christmas, with games against Barcelona and Inter Milan still to come.
They have managed just one point at the halfway point of the group stage and that came in Eindhoven in the reverse fixture a fortnight ago.
“When you compete at that level against Inter Milan or PSV, of course Barcelona, it is not easy to go to the next stage of the Champions League and qualify,” he said.
Spurs have injury concerns for the fame with Mousa Dembele the latest victim following his ankle injury at Wolves on Saturday.
