Many supporters were quick to jump on poor performances given the amount Spurs paid for his services and the player was left considering his options at the club.Sissoko, though, has stunned supporters this campaign with match-winning displays, using his powerful dribbling to help Mauricio Pochettino’s side transition from defence to attack, while also improving his positioning to allow Kieran Trippier to get further forward on the right.Moussa Sissokp has turned his Tottenham career around3

And despite the tough times, like against Manchester City last season when supporters began leaving the stadium upon his introduction as a late substitute, Sissoko revealed his strong mindset allowed him to come back from the brink and prove his qualities.Ahead of Tottenham’s Premier League match with Burnley – which you can hear live on talkSPORT – he said of his form: Im very proud and I will try to keep [improving]. Since I came [to Tottenham] everything hasnt been easy for me, for different reasons I dont want to speak about it but the most important thing for me was to keep focussed, stay strong in my head, and keep working.I knew I had the quality to be successful here, I had to keep working and never give up and I would have the chance to be a success.Now, since the beginning of the season, Ive been playing a lot of games and Im happy with what Im doing but I need to carry on and try to improve even more and then try to become a better player and try to help the team to go higher up the table and go far in the Champions League.

The manager had to make his choice and he decided not to pick me and I have to accept that even if it was hard.I need to move on and keep working because I still have a career in front of me and I need to look forward so thats what I have done.If I had the chance to win the Champions League it will be great for me but the World Cup will still be in my heart.I need to move on and not look back. Weve got an exciting challenge.
