“This game is really important for us because it came after two drawn matches. Matches we could win so it’s very important to play a great match against Brighton that is a tough team in this moment since Christmas”, he told Football.London.
“First in the league for chances created from open play, passes attempted and shots on target. It is a team with the ball that is very good, with a great manager that arrive here and is quickly doing a great job.
“We knew this manager for a long time because he’s an Italian guy and we respect him and Brighton, but we are Tottenham, and we play in our stadium and so we have to play stronger, and play in our way and in a way, we can hurt them.”
If Tottenham do end up appointing Roberto De Zerbi, what can be said for sure is that Cristian Stellini would rate his arrival extremely highly.
