Toby Alderweireld is urging Tottenham to build on their run to the Champions League final.

The Belgian defender believes the club must now build on the new mentality instilled by Mauricio Pochettino if they want to emulate triumphant Liverpool.

Alderweireld said: “Of course everybody is very disappointed but we have to look at it like this: Its the next step that we have taken and now we have to keep going.

“Not think: 'Oh we are happy with the final and maybe in a couple of years [we'll be back].' No, no. Next year we want to be here again.'

“That's the mentality, the philosophy we have in this group. To improve every season. And again with the new stadium, with the new vibe in the team, we'll do good.

“Every year in the Champions League we've improved. It's difficult to talk about next season now. We are very disappointed. But in a couple of days we need to get our heads together then we next season we go again."
