Tottenham midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg has admitted his admiration for Brentford manager Thomas Frank.

Hojbjerg played for Frank with Denmark U16s and the pair were reunited for Tottenham's win last night.

"His way of thinking and analysing football is very technical and detailed. He is also very open-minded, always with a desire to discover new things, to make things better and to reach the next step," Hojbjerg said.

According to Hojbjerg, Frank also has some human qualities that benefit his coaching.

"He is very aware of the human aspect and his surroundings, and that makes him a really nice person to be around."
