Tottenham midfielder Mousa Dembele is determined to repay the support he's received from manager Mauricio Pochettino.

Dembele has been compared by his boss to the all-time greats such as Diego Maradona and Ronaldinho.

“It's a personal goal for myself and for the team." said Dembele: “In the past we spoke a lot as well, so it's not something new.

“He speaks a lot with me, and gives me confidence. He's mentioned these kinds of things to me in the past.

“Obviously he's been giving me confidence and it's a good thing, but you always want to win something, so it doesn't change my role.

“Everybody likes to be appreciated. It's a good feeling, but there's so much to play for still."
