I almost quit football-Janssen

The 22-year old Tottenham striker has revealed how he almost stopped
his football career after he was released by Feyenoord in 2013. He failed to make a single appearance for the Dutch club.
He said to ESPNFC,
"I liked football too much to quit it, but at that moment it was now or never."
"And if it wasn't going to be what I wanted, I had to make a choice. I said to myself: 'One time more I'm going to give everything for it', and you can see what can happen."
"My feeling at Feyenoord was not that good. I never felt really comfortable. Feyenoord made a choice at that moment and I made a choice to go on. Sometimes, it not always going how you want it to go is helpful," he added.
"I was not feeling comfortable there, so I had to fight for myself. That's what I learned there. Sometimes when it doesn't go well, you have to fight. So that's what I did."
H

e also said after speaking to Pochettino, he knew he woul like to play for the Spurs.
"When I was first in Tottenham at the facilities, my conversation with the coach was very good. For me, the choice was easy," he said.
"I always think to myself that I have to do choices by 100%, and for me it was a 100% choice."My feeling was good. It was easy. After a lot of conversations with the club, I know where I want to go."
