Tottenham midfielder Hojbjerg hails Danish influence at Brentford

Tottenham midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is excited facing Brentford today.

Hojbjerg is full of respect for the Danish contingent with the Bees.

"There is Christian Eriksen, the other Christian (Nørgaard), Mathias Jensen, Thomas Frank, there are many Danish players, so it will be difficult," said Hojbjerg.

"Brentford have a very good team. They are in a good place, they are well organised and their home crowd is fantastic. They are currently living and have a lot of confidence so it will be a big challenge.

"It is important for us to stay calm and cool and focus on what is important - to explore Brentford's weaknesses, try to punish them and get the points we need because we want to move forward."
