Toby Alderweireld says his Spurs team-mates all
believe they can push for the title
Toby Alderweireld insists Tottenham can bridge the gap
to leaders Leicester City and claim a first league title since 1961.
Second-placed Spurs are five points behind Leicester
with seven games to go ahead of this weekend's trip to Liverpool, live on Saturday
Night Football, with Leicester hosting Southampton on Super Sunday.
And Alderweireld, who is with Belgium this week for
their friendly against Portugal, is already thinking of the clash with Jurgen
Klopp's side.
"We are confident in our team, if we keep working
hard and at the same level we have been we can beat any team," he told Sky
Sports News HQ.
"That's not arrogance, it's confidence and that's
the way we have to play.
"We just have to focus game by game. It's a
cliche but it's the way we have to play. We have seven finals left so let's
start at Liverpool."
The centre-back has been integral to Spurs' impressive
campaign, which has seen them score the most and concede the least number of
goals in the league, but he refused to be drawn on those who say he is the best
defender in England.
"I'm enjoying this season. It's wonderful at
Spurs and I'm really happy, so I'm just trying to keep my level until the end
of the season," he added.
"It's their right to say it but I don't feel that
way. I'm just trying to help the team and do my best. I don't like to talk
about myself, other people are paid to do that. I try to do my best on the
pitch and that's it."
