Tottenham Hotspur interim head coach Tim Sherwood has admitted that he was impressed by debutant Nabil Bentaleb during Sunday's win over Southampton in the Premier League.
The 19-year-old French defender played the final 40 minutes at St Mary's Stadium as Spurs earned a 3-2 victory against the Saints.
"I wouldn't hesitate putting him in and I don't think he let anyone down," Goal.com quotes him as saying. "He was quick and cool, I knew what I was going to get - I was confident putting him on.
"I knew he wouldn't be fazed, not only his attitude, I mean he trains like every day is his last in the world. And he listens and he has got a fantastic attitude."
Tottenham are back in Premier League action on Boxing Day when they face West Bromwich Albion at White Hart Lane.
