Tottenham boss Conte demanding '130 per cent' from Kane, Son & Lloris

Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte insists Harry Kane, Hugo Lloris and Son Heung-min have to give '130 per cent' for the club to finish in the top-four this season.

Spurs are currently six points behind fourth-placed Arsenal, and Conte wants his star players to lift them into the Champions League qualification spots.

"If you want to have a hope to fight until the end for this type of target, this is the moment I have to ask a lot to the big players," Conte said ahead of Wednesday's trip to Brighton.

"To Harry, Hugo and Sonny. These players have to lead the situation to keep us until the end there.

"At the moment, experience is very important. We don't have a lot of experience in this team and it's right to ask the players with experience and big talent to give everything.

"I think they're giving everything but 100 per cent is not enough. We need to ask 120, 130 per cent to have this type of target.

"It will be very important to have people with great talent to lead us until the end and to try to be very close to reach this target."
