Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino got stuck into his players during this morning's training session at Hotspur Way.
Spurs host CSKA Moscow at Wembley on Wednesday night aiming to secure their first victory at England's national stadium this season.
But the north Londoners' hopes of progressing to the Champions League knock-out stages are already over, having secured just four points from their opening five games.
A place in the Europa League is all that is at stake for Spurs but Pochettino appeared to be in high spirits as he put his players through their paces.
The Argentine coach got very hands on during a keep ball session and even tussled with Harry Kane and Kieran Trippier as he attempted to retain possession.
Toby Alderweireld also took part in the public phase of training and is set to be part of the squad against the Russian champions.
The Belgium defender injured his knee during October's draw against West Brom and his return to fitness would be a timely boost for Pochettino's side.
Standard Sport understands Spurs have opened talks with Alderweireld about a contract extension after moving to deny claims he has a release clause inserted into his current deal at White Hart Lane.
