Dejan Kulusevski reveals secret behind superb Tottenham form: 'Something that no other player has' | OneFootball

Kulusevski once again impressed against Man City as Spurs produced statement performance

Dejan Kulusevski believes his stamina sets him apart from "any other player" and says he never feels tired after producing another outstanding display in Tottenham's 4-0 win over Manchester City.

Maddison doubled the visitors' lead before the break and Brennan Johnson added a fourth in stoppage-time as Spurs inflicted a fifth straight defeat on Pep Guardiola's floundering City.

"I’m very happy, I’m trying to improve... I started the season good, but there is over half of the season left and I hope I can do much better.

"I think I have something that no other player has, so you can’t compare me to any other player.

"Of course, I watch other players, I take the best stuff from them, but with my engine, you know, with my heart, I don’t get tired.

"I don’t get tired and I can’t let anybody outwork me. That’s the plan. That’s how I play and how I train.

"I feel like I can do a lot still in my career. Clearly, you have to strive to be as good as possible, every day in every kind of way, on the pitch and outside of the pitch.

"Right now, I’m doing my best and I’m really not demanding anything for myself. You know when a mistake happens, it happens. So I’m maturing a lot and I’m enjoying my football a lot more.

"I’m improving, I’m getting more mature now as a forward also," Kulusevski added.

"That’s important for the club that I take my responsibility and I help the young players, they really trust me and I believe in them a lot, so I know we enjoy playing together."

In six League appearances against City, Kulusevski now has combined six goals and assists and he revealed he looks forward to facing the champions more than any other team, mainly because of the space Guardiola's side allow their opponents.

"I’d say it’s the best result ever in my career. It’s a big night for the whole club, for the coach, for the players," Kulusevski said.

"I believed [we could get a result like this] because in the past years, we’ve come here and played really well. So this is the game I look forward to most in the year and once again it happens, so glory to God.

"Because City have a lot of the ball so sometimes we can rest when we defend. There’s also so much space up there, we play one against one and then it’s always dangerous because we have a lot of quality.

"Sunday's result was all the more remarkable for coming after Tottenham lost to previously-winless pair Crystal Palace and Ipswich in their previous two away games.

And Kulusevski added: "It’s always great to play great teams because they always want to play football. When you play lower teams, sometimes it’s not. There’s not much football played because they are a lot of fouls a lot of injuries and it’s slow going.

"We have to be much more consistent. It’s not a turning point. We have to be better in other games. This game suits us perfectly, but we have a lot of improvement to make in the other games.

"We have to climb the ladder. We have to improve a lot, especially in the games where we play the lower-ranked teams, but it’s up to us all to take responsibility because we’re very good players, and now we just have to do it every day."
