Tottenham finished third on the table last season and are second on the table, four points behind Chelsea. Tottenham will play Chelsea in the FA Cup semifinal and Pochettino will very much like to win a trophy with Spurs, but believes a top four finish is success enough. “Here at Tottenham is a massive success,” he said ahead of Saturday’s cup clash. “Yes, you can win titles. But with which teams? It is normal to win titles with Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, maybe Juventus, Porto in Portugal. “With a big team, you are already very close to winning. Look at Barcelona with Pep [Guardiola], with Tito Vilanova, with Frank Rijkaard, with Luis Enrique – all different managers, but with the same group of players and they were successful. “Success for me is to finish in the top four like last season. It was a big success for Tottenham and means maybe more than winnin
