It was really tough but I think they really believed.“Football always rewards the teams that really try and believe and I think it was very late but football rewarded us. “I dont want you to twist my words! Its important to believe after our first three games in the Champions League that it would be possible to qualify but all is possible in football.“Of course we are going to compete with massive sides like Manchester City, Liverpool, Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal but football is all about belief.”Next up for Poch and his players is their Carabao Cup quarter-final tie at north London rivals Arsenal on Wednesday night – a game you can listen to live on talkSPORT.And Pochettino insisted his players would be up for the game but claimed the Gunners had a fitness advantage going into the game.He added: “Its a cup and of course its a derby. They have a little bit of an advantage because they have been able to rest players over the last two weeks playing in the Europa League.“We have a lot of injured players but we are going to compete. Its always big to play the derby.”
