Former Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger has described Tottenham as a team lacking the physicality to compete with other clubs.
Wenger said that Antonio Conte’s side do not have enough quality despite investing a whole lot of money after they lost to Italian giants, AC Milan in the first leg of their Champions League last 16 tie on Tuesday night.
It was Brahim Diaz’s goal that separated the two sides on the night and Conte’s men can still turn things around in the second leg on March 8, when the two sides meets at the London Stadium.

This is Spurs defeat in four days after their heavy lost to Leicester City on Saturday.
Wenger believes Tottenham are severely lacking in key areas despite some big additions to the club in the recent transfer windows.
He said;
“Tottenham for me, is a team that is not convincing, they do not have enough top quality players,” the Frenchman told beIN Sport.
“Overall I believe this team lacks pace, they have a mono-rhythm and they do not change pace enough and cannot compete physically pace-wise at the top level at the moment,” he added.
Tottenham Hotspur are currently outside the Premier League top four behind Newcastle United and Manchester United having been very inconsistent this season.
Up next for Antonio Conte’s side is a London derby against West Ham United at the Tottenham stadium this weekend before another derby against Chelsea.
