Nacer Chadli has told his attack-minded Tottenham Hotspur teammates to pull their socks up as goal-shy Spurs chase their first Premier League win of the season.

Mauricio Pochettino's side have lost one and drawn three of their first four league outings thus far, scoring just three times along the way.

"Three goals in four games is not enough for a club like Tottenham. You have to score more and we know that and we're going to work harder. As an attacking player, you have to score," the Spurs winger is quoted as saying by The Mirror.

"We are creating chances - that's positive. As an attacking player, if you don't create chances it's a big problem, but if you've created chances and you don't score maybe it's an off day, it can happen to everybody.

"I think we have to work hard and be focused on the day of the game, because we had some good moves and just the last shot was not good. There are only four games gone so there are still a lot of games. Football's like that."

The Lilywhites, who sit 16th in the table, face Sunderland away on Sunday afternoon.
