As his side pursue glory in the Champions League, Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino looks to be taking tips from serial European champion Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Spurs squad posed together for a picture in Barcelona, where they have been taking part in a warm weather training camp, before flying back on Thursday.
In the picture, Pochettino has pulled his shorts up right around his groin, giving him the appearance of wearing little more than a pair of speedos.
While this may have simply been to pick up a last minute tan before returning to wet and windy London, Pochettino's pose had echoes of Ronaldo.
The Juventus star has often been noted for pulling his shorts above his thighs - in theory because it offers extra freedom of movement, in practice showing off his toned muscles.
Ronaldo put his strong thighs - and the rest of his body - to good use this week as he fired Juventus into the last eight of the Champions League with a hat-trick against Atletico Madrid.
There they could face Pochettino's Tottenham, who also reached the quarter finals with an impressive win over Borussia Dortmund.

This one seems to have lost his mind when he lost the extra weight.

They need to come back totally focused on their next match, crucial game at Anfield, then we are back home at The Lane.

I think Spurs should arrange to send all their loyal fans for a break to get some sunshine instead.We're the poor so and so's who've had to watch them, yet again,fall at the final hurdle.To get 1 point out of 12 is very poor,and as our next game is at Liverpool I can see it being 1 in 15.We were lucky to get the one point also.If they don't get a point at Liverpool,we'll be playing in a new stadium that will be half empty because the fans are fed up with them losing form at a crucial stage of the season almost as a matter of habit.

He needs to give his team a giant size 12 up the ariss. One point out of 12 is relegation quality. Not acceptable to the fans and shiuld be acceptable to the management. Complete lack of respect for lesser opposition. As a fan of many many years now they have never failed to disappoint when the season gets to the nitty gritty. Lots of work to do now to try ti finish on a high point else next season with be a bit dull and quiet in the New Lane. Those who dint want to play for the club next season should declare their hands now and make way for those that do.

Only diff is that one has won everything there is to win in club football while the other has bottled everything.

Poch is brilliant. We have had three years of great football and can have a good end to this season. Draw in the CL tomorrow and frankly lets draw a big name and show our mettle. Got my tickets confirmed for the two tester events at the new Lane super excited.
