Sigurdsson, speaking to The Times, said when asked if could fit into Pochettino's high-pressing team: 'That's what we do here.'
And when pushed, he added: 'Yes. Pochettino is trying to bring the style he had at Southampton and of course it's going to take time.
'I'm pretty sure the chairman is going to give him a couple of seasons to get it right.'
The attacking midfielder also revealed he was reluctant to leave Spurs during the summer as he wanted to prove himself at the north London outfit.
'My first reaction was, Gylfi, don't leave Tottenham, it will look like you can't make it to the next level.'
