Tranmere Rovers manager Micky Mellon: "We've had five games in 14 days which has been tough, but there's a massive game at the end of it, and that's Tottenham.
"It's great that you can have a group of players that were playing in the National League now playing against what the Premier League table says is the second-best team in England - it's brilliant.
"It's what football should be all about."
Poch: "It's a positive challenge for us.
"We know very well if we are not at our best then it's going to be a very difficult game. We are going to be competitive and have a very good team.
"We need to be sure we that we show our best face and that we show we're competitive and have the right attitude. That's going to be the key in this type of competition like the FA Cup.
"If you're not right and you don't take it the right way then you can struggle."
