Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou on Micky van de Ven's speed after the Spurs defender was clocked as the fastest player in Premier League history since records began:
"We knew what we were getting from a physical perspective. His speed and ability to recover was elite. It's not just about running fast - football's more than that and you've got to use that in the right way.
"I've been really impressed with the way he has adapted to Premier League football, and being up against top strikers every week. His ability to use that speed in such an effective way in terms of his defensive work has been outstanding for a young man in his first year [of Premier League football].
"Don't forget that before he came to us he only had one year in the Bundesliga, so there's so much more to come from him. I've been really pleased with the way he's gone up to this level and used what he has as his strengths."
Asked whether he fears Van de Ven will pick up another injury when he uses his speed, the Australian replied: "No, you can't think of it that way. It's his game.
"He had the injury against Chelsea, there's always that possibility with high-performing athletes but he has a really good rehab programme and he hasn't missed a beat since he got back.
