Benoit Assou-Ekotto insists he's happy at Tottenham.

Assou-Ekotto, who has been the club's first-choice left-back since he joined from Lens in 2006, slotted easily back in to the team on Saturday as Tottenham moved in to the fourth round of the FA Cup with a 3-0 win over Coventry.

And the Cameroon defender insists he will make the position his own once again.

"It's not a problem," Assou-Ekotto said when asked about competition for his position.

"When I came here six years ago I was in competition with Gilberto, Lee Young-Pyo and Gareth Bale and it ended up being my place (in the team) so it's not a problem."
