Eric Dier says any Tottenham youngster given a first team chance by manager Mauricio Pochettino is worthy of his place.
Dier is one of several players to have been handed a chance to prove their worth by Pochettino and has thrived under the 44-year-old's guidance after being converted into a central midfielder.
"You've got to deserve it," he insisted.
“Everyone gets a bit excited with the whole youth thing, but I think at our club the manager [Mauricio Pochettino] won't just play any youngster."
