A first-half Joelinton strike gave Newcastle the lead as they beat Spurs 1-0. Shearer believes Spurs lack the intensity needed to challenge at the top of the table Speaking to the Sun , Shearer said: "Everything was at a slow pace. Every pass was slow and every cross was slow. There was no pace to their game whatsoever. Without Eriksen in the team, there is definitely a lack of creativity. "Pochettino has a big decision to make – either getting cash for him in this window or letting him go for nothing. But right now they just cannot afford to let him go."
