Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino has acknowledged that the FA Cup has become a higher "priority" since the club's exit from the Champions League.

In previous rounds of the competition, Pochettino has opted to rotate his first-team squad, with the club's key men taking a place on the substitutes' bench.

However, ahead of the quarter-final clash at Swansea City, Pochettino has hinted that he may not make as many alterations to his starting lineup.

At a press conference, the 46-year-old told reporters: "Of course, like all the games were massive. Like Bournemouth was massive to keep our position in the table, Juventus was a massive game and now this will be a massive game.

"If we want to have the option to fight and win some titles, I think this is the only option we have to try to arrive to achieve that. The FA Cup now is a competition with the Premier League that is our priority because we're only involved in two competitions. It's massive for us and for them."

Spurs have defeated AFC Wimbledon, Newport County and Rochdale to reach the last eight of the competition.
