Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has no doubts about the quality of Tottenham.
City host Tottenham on Saturday, with Guardiola hailing Mauricio Pochettino's side as the second best in Europe" after reaching last season's Champions League final.
How good are they?" pondered the Spaniard. My words and my opinion on them? They are the second best team in Europe. For me, that's enough.
Since I came here to England, every season they were a real contender.
In my first season, they finished second. In the last two seasons, they didn't win it, but always they were tough, tough games.
I said from the first day, when we played at White Hart Lane and lost 2-0, about the capacity, quality and possibilities of this team, the manager and the club.
They are a strong team, a good team."
