Guglielmo Vicario’s passion is undeniable as he hunts glory with Tottenham but the Italian keeper accepts letting rip at Swedish youngster Lucas Bergvall in their opening game at Leicester was wrong.

Glad he’s come out and apologised. We should be building our kids confidence up not knocking them down!

"I was too aggressive with him. I apologised. Maybe at that moment it was because we’d dominated a game for 70 mins and then conceded. I had a feeling in the last five minutes we could lose the game. Maybe it’s to understand where the game’s leading us or not. But it was not the right way, screaming to him. But he understands. He’s a good guy. It’s part of football. We are men. I suffered this too when younger.
We are good friends and speak about sometimes having feelings of the game, the environment, when you, maybe, play away games and everybody is more excited. It was the first game back in the Premier League, the fans were pushing us. My action at that moment was not the best but the message came from the right place."

Good of vic. But at the same time, look at Everton yesterday. If Pickford fired rockets like that at people then maybe they'd have woken up a bit.... I liked that vic showed some fight and that he could feel the danger of the game going the wrong way.

A fine line I suppose, and he did cross it a bit. But I get it. Onwards!

It’s definitely a fine line.

With Bergvall he clearly has bags of ability. We want him to play with confidence and express himself which he won’t do if he gets screamed at all the time.

He needs to learn when to play and when to just play it safe. But as Vic says they move and it’s in the past.
