Spurs led thanks to a Christian Eriksen goal shortly after half-time but Mauro Icardi equalised in the 86th minute before Matias Vecino gave Inter an unlikely win in injury time.
It was the third consecutive 2-1 defeat suffered by Pochettino's side and it certainly sounds like the Spurs boss is feeling the pressure.
"It’s so cruel," Pochettino said. "The team deserved much more and I think that was our best performance since the start of the season. The only way back to winning games is to play in the way we played. It’s not about learning and working on the training ground [on set pieces] – you need luck, too, and the right decision at the right moment.
"At 1-0, the result is always open and the problem was we didn’t kill the game. Samir Handanovic was fantastic in goal in some situations. Of course, the home fans were unbelievable after the equaliser and they helped their team to win the game. We need to improve with some situations.
"I understand football and I understand tough periods can arrive. After our win at Manchester United, I said: ‘Be careful.’ And afterwards, a tough period arrived, starting at Watford. The most important thing is to be strong and we are strong. We’ve shown tonight we will be the same as in the past.
"We have quality and I started to see good signs the team is coming back. We showed great personality. We controlled Inter Milan in the San Siro, a difficult place. We showed big character and we were unlucky not to keep the result we deserved."One country has entered two teams into this year’s World Cup – Here’s how
