Europe can help Spurs improve, but Premier League priority: Tudor

The Croatian has overseen three defeats in his three league matches at the helm, with Spurs embroiled in a relegation battle, sitting 16th, just one point above the drop zone. Tudor said he hoped the European double-header against Diego Simeone's Atletico could help his side improve, even if a deep run in the Champions League was not the main target. "(We must) focus on us, we're playing against a team that has a story in this Champions League, they have experience, they have quality," Tudor told reporters ahead of Tuesday's game.
