Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino was once again full of praise for Manchester City star Sergio Aguero.

The Argentine striker scored his 10th goal in 7 Premier League appearances against Spurs when he rifled home in the 29th minute at White Hart Lane to give City a 1-0 victory.

After the match, Pochettino highlighted the quality of Aguero while pinpointing City keeper Joe Hart as the best player on the pitch after making a handful of key saves.

"I think that today Aguero was very effective. He created two or three chances and scored one," said Pochettino of his fellow countryman.

"He is one of the best players in the world - I think I repeat this every time that we play against him but it is true.

"But it is true in the first half I think we deserved more. We created a lot of chances, the second half too.

"Manchester City I think not only had Aguero but Joe Hart, who was man of the match. I think he saved the result and had a brilliant performance."
