Luka Modric is excited about the new signings Tottenham have made this season.

The Croatian thought the Tottenham squad had become stale in the summer but has been impressed with the impact the two new signings have made.

"We needed some fresh blood in our team," Modric said.

"Scotty and Manu came in. They are great players. They have improved our squad a lot and you can see that on the pitch.

"Now we are in third we have hard games coming up so we just have to keep fighting for each other and keep this momentum up."
