Tottenham centre-back Toby Alderweireld claims that confidence and self-belief are the two main ingredients of the team's success this season.

Mauricio Pochettino's Spurs currently occupy third spot on the Premier League table, and the Belgian defender believes there is a strong togetherness in the team that has seen them move into a threatening position ahead of the season run-in.

He said: "The most important thing is we have no heroes in this team.

"We have a team with a lot of quality that wants to improve. Everybody works hard for each other.

"When one makes a mistake, the other one picks it up. We have a togetherness. We want to achieve something this season and I think you can see that on the pitch.

"There is confidence and self-belief - not arrogance - that we can beat everybody. We know that if we don't put the effort in, we are a normal team."
