"I definitely rate him that highly, especially when you consider how young he is. "He's got the footballing world at his feet. He's got so many attributes — pace, power, a great shot — and over the past few seasons he's really kicked on. "There are two sides to it," said 21-year-old Allen. "We'll look forward to facing Gareth, but we also know he's a danger. "Hopefully we can keep him quiet as much as possible. But Spurs have got quality all over the pitch."
