Tottenham midfielder Moussa Sissoko feels at his best in a central role.

Sissoko has enjoyed a stellar season for Tottenham, having been moved into a more defensive midfield role, after previously being considered a wide forward at Newcastle and initially at Spurs.

"I am very happy in that role," Sissoko said. "We train a lot in that position, and was happy with it. I was feeling better and better in games. I got more confidence from the games.

"I feel it is my natural position, even though I was playing out wide for Newcastle. From when I started playing football, my position was as a central midfielder. It is where I feel more comfortable. For different reasons managers put me on the side. I feel more confident in the middle, and I know exactly what I have to do. For me it is more easy.

"I hope to improve and be a better player, but for now I am happy. I just need to keeping working on every training session."
