Tottenham's players looked to be enjoying their time in the US as they prepared for their International Champions Cup clash against Roma in New Jersey.

Spurs plays the Serie A side on Tuesday night and Mauricio Pochettino made sure his players were going to be ready as he tested them in training on Monday.

Harry Kane, Dele Alli and the rest of the Tottenham players had a reason to smile as they trained in Whippany.

The 4-2 victory over Paris Saint-Germain in Orlando on Saturday proved to the Spurs boss just what his side are capable of.

Pochettino, however, admitted afterwards that the result wasn't important.

'It's always good to win but the result is less important, for us, it's about getting fit,' he said.

'It was the first game and when you play this type of fixture against a team like Paris Saint-Germain and recover that feeling of competition after the summer, it's always important.' 

Pochettino's main aim for the US tour is to ready his players for the new Premier League season, which starts away against Newcastle on Sunday, August 13.

He added: 'First of all it’s to try to provide the players with the fitness they need to compete. It’s always difficult because there were a lot changes and we’re mixing the younger players with the senior players to settle them. I’m very happy, there are always things to improve and that is football.'
