    Tottenham Hotspur

    Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino: "Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are on a different level, they have showed this over the last five to 10 years.

    "If you ask Antonio Conte, he will say Alvaro Morata is the best. Pep Guardiola will say Sergio Aguero or Gabriel Jesus, Jose will say it is Romelu Lukaku.

    "Harry Kane is one of the best and in that level of players who score a lot of goals each week. It is difficult to say who is the best.

    Tottenham Hotspur

    Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino: "Harry Kane is so young, for he is the one of the best today and one of the best in the world.

    "He can be better because he is young, he can improve because he is as professional. There is a gap to improve.

    "All the praise and words I can use to describe him, I cannot find any more. I never said he is better than Cristiano Ronaldo, this is a good opportunity to clarify.
