Conte hails Skipp after win over Brentford
Antonio Conte hailed the performance of Oliver Skipp following his side’s 2-0 win over Brentford.
Spurs sealed all three points thanks to an own goal from Sergi Canos and second half strike from Son Heung-min, however Conte picked Skipp for praise after an impressive midfield display.
“He played with great intensity, great passion, with heart, with soul," said Conte during his post-match press conference.
"I think it was important because for me he doesn’t care if he’s only 21-years-old, who deserves to play.
“Today he played well. I think that I can improve him a lot in possession and technically, to look before the play that they have to do. We’re talking about an important prospect and I'm very happy for him, but now he has to continue in this way.”
