Winks urges Spurs pals to 'prove Pep wrong'

Tottenham midfielder Harry Winks has urged his teammates to silence Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola tomorrow.

Winks has challenged his Tottenham team-mates to prove to Guardiola they are more than just the "Harry Kane team" and bring an end to Manchester City's extraordinary winning streak on Saturday.

Asked if a visit to the Etihad offers an opportunity to prove Guardiola wrong, Winks said: "Yeah, exactly. We just want to go there and win. That's the most important thing. We know what we're like as a team and how good we are. It's a good place to go and set our standard and make a point.

"We think we can go there and match them. It's down to the manager but we'll go in the way we always do, positive and on the front foot, try to out-possess them and outplay them. I know it's going to be tough, they're a good side and you have to respect them. To end their run will be a good incentive as well."
