Tottenham midfielder Eric Dier: We're really happy to be top

Tottenham midfielder Eric Dier says the players are delighted to be top of the table. Spurs share the leadership with Leicester City.

Dier was speaking after their 1-0 win at West Brom.

He said, "We are really happy to be top. We are still a bit disappointed with the points we've got. To be top is nice but there is still a long, long way to go.

On Harry Kane scoring his 150th Premier League goal for the win, Dier continued: "Fantastic record. He broke one in midweek and now he has another one. It won't affect him too much, he will want another 150.

“Big games after the international break but they are the games you want to be playing, you want to be in a position where you are fighting for something and we are in that position.

"It is nice to go into the international break with a win."
