As a pressure it’s totally different, but if we win this game, there is another pride, another emotion, another feeling.“It was my decision because I thought to stay together the day before, to prepare the meeting the day before, the morning of the game and to create the right atmosphere. If the fans show their love to the players, it is not pressure, it is an honour, it is a great thing for the players. It is a good thing, it is a positive thing for us.”De Zerbi stresses the importance of a good start for SpursThere could be plenty of twists and turns over the course of 90 minutes, and one would expect the fans at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to get nervous if Everton score first or if West Ham score against Leeds.De Zerbi confessed that it is vital for his side to come flying out of the blocks and get the supporters onside early.He added: “We have to be good, to start the game with energy, with spirit and after 10, 15 minutes, if we are playing well, the fans come inside of the pitch. We have to be good to deserve their support, like we did against Brighton or part of the game against Leeds at home.”READ MORE: Tottenham could be without just six players vs Everton as Solanke returns from injuryThe post Roberto De Zerbi reveals how he wants Tottenham to turn pressure into honour vs Everton appeared first on Spurs Web.
