There is no better place to be right now."The supporters are unbelievable, we have assembled a great squad of players with huge potential that can get even better, while the facilities we have to work in are world-class."We also have an incredible new stadium to look forward to and now we are determined to build a side worthy of playing inside such an exciting new venue."We have enjoyed a great season and we believe this is just the beginning. We have a long-term project and huge belief that we can achieve something big here for the future."This club has all the ingredients to continue to challenge at the very top in the Premier League and in Europe and we want to be here to be a part of what I believe will be a special period in the club's history." Pochettino has revolutionised Tottenham's fortunes since his switch from the Saints in May 2014, leading them to the cusp of the Champions League and also the League Cup final last year before taking them to another level this term.The 44-year-old has been lauded for his use of young English players during his tenure in England and has aided the development and breakthrough of several talented prospects such as Harry Kane, Eric Dier and Dele Alli.Recent rumours suggested Manchester United were interested in taking Pochettino on board in the summer and speculation was fuelled after he was spotted having lunch with former Red Devils boss Sir Alex Ferguson.But Pochettino has now dismissed any possibility of a move away after committing his future to Spurs.</blockquote>
