Steven Gerrard and Rio Ferdinand hail Tottenham midfielder Mousa Dembele after he dictates Champions League tie with Juventus: 'He is doing that better than anyone at the moment'

Tottenham midfielder Mousa Dembele is the engine that makes Mauricio Pochettino's side tick and he rightly took the headlines after the club's thrilling last-16 Champions League first-leg tie with Juventus on Tuesday.

The north London side made a disastrous start to the contest in Turin when they fell 2-0 down but responded magnificently and were driven forward through the pace, power and awareness of Dembele to head back to Wembley with the score level at 2-2.

Denmark international Christian Eriksen followed up Harry Kane's first half strike but the Belgian midfielder showed he is producing his finest form in a Spurs shirt currently.
