Maybe Jol's confidence has gone a little, admits Zokora, but the players are behind him

13 April 2012

Didier Zokora has told his Tottenham team-mates it is imperative they win their next three matches to revive their faltering season.

Spurs face Spanish side Getafe in the UEFA Cup tomorrow night, take on Blackburn Rovers in the Premier League on Sunday and then meet Blackpool in the Carling Cup on Wednesday.

Critically, all three games will be played in front of their own fans at White Hart Lane.

"We've got to turn things around for the fans and for the manager," Zokora told the Daily Express. "The players are totally behind Martin Jol.

"He is a good man and a good coach. Maybe his confidence has gone a little, but he is still a top, top manager.

"We know the way football works, but we now have three home games in a row against Getafe, Blackburn and Blackpool and after three wins everything will look a lot better.

"We have to get those victories because the manager needs it and we, the players, are desperate to start winning again."
