Dimitar Berbatov hails Tottenham's "smart talent" and tips Spurs to surprise people

Dimitar Berbatov has revealed he believes Tottenham will be the Premier League title challengers under Jose Mourinho this season and has hailed Tanguy Ndombele, following the club's 3 -1 victory over Sheffield United on Sunday. Spurs are currently sitting in 5th place in the league table, with a game in hand. They have lost just three clashes in their previous 30 games in all competitions. "They did look good and that Ndombele goal was special," Berbatov said after the latest league match. "Did he mean it? Haha. He is turning into a smart talent and integrating into the team. "This has benefited the whole team and I'm sure Jose Mourinho is happy." On Spurs' title hopes, he added: "For me, they are still in the mix with Leicester and the others, it is tight at the top and it is interesting. "The chase is going to be great to watch. They will be there in the shadows. There is not too much stress on them to be mentioned as contenders, but they will be playing better if they are not under pressure and could surprise people. "In my opinion, I think the main teams need to keep an eye on each other. It's very tight up there and it will be so interesting as teams will keep losing, drawing and winning games. "Honestly, it is going to be tight and a must watch until the very end. You talk about United, City and Liverpool but you cannot underestimate Leicester or Spurs."
