Sherwood: 'I've no problem with Sandro'

Tottenham Hotspur manager Tim Sherwood has said that he has "no problem" with Sandro despite leaving him out of the squad for the 3-1 win over Fulham on Saturday.

The midfielder tweeted to clarify that he was not injured on the morning of the game in what was seen as a swipe at Sherwood.

After the game, Sherwood told reporters: "I don't care about the tweet. I don't go on Twitter. He can tweet what he wants.

"I like Sandro's qualities, but in my eyes it wasn't right to put him in the squad - other people are ahead of him. I think Nacer Chadli's done well in there and I think Paulinho's done well in there.

"I really don't have a problem with him. He's a good lad. I don't have any problem with anything he's got to say. He's not being disrespectful to me, I don't think."

Goals from Paulinho, Harry Kane and Younes Kaboul secured victory for Spurs.
