Tottenham fullback Davies: We're all happy for Foyth

Tottenham fullback Ben Davies insists he's happy with the increased competition within the squad.

Davies has played Tottenham's last four Premier League games, including Saturday's 1-0 at Crystal Palace, having gone four games without a top-flight start previously.

The 25-year-old said: “Changes during the game are something you have to expect sometimes, it's a squad game and everyone has to be ready.

“The players on the bench are always ready to do their jobs and I think Serge (Aurier) did brilliantly. It's hard as a defender to come in so early but he did very well.

“Juan's (Foyth) been flying but we see it every day in training. He's been one of the hardest workers in training for the last year-and-a-half since he arrived, and he's come on leaps and bounds.

“You can see from the celebrations how pleased the boys were to see him score that goal."
