Lucas Bergvall says that taking praise from Manchester City Pep Guardiola is a pleasant experience.
The young midfielder of Tottenham won admiration from the Spanish coach after his impressive appearance against the city in late February, despite the fact that sperm falls into a 1-0 defeat at home.
While Tottenham endured a disappointing night, Bergvall’s performance in the middle section stood out as a focus on the side of the ange Postecoglou.
His impact on the game garnered the attention of Guardiola, who spoke particularly about the Swedish international at the press conference after the match.

Currently, from the international task with Sweden, Bergvall was asked about Guardiola’s observations and shared his prospect of receiving such recognition.
“Of course it’s fun, but in the big picture it doesn’t matter,” he told SVT Sport. “I try to play football and develop all the time and help the team.
Despite Tottenham’s Games this season, with the club sitting in the 14th place in the Premier League, the appearance of Bergvall and fellow young Archie Gray has provided some optimism.
Postecoglou had to navigate at a time of injuries and Bergvall believes that the conditions were particularly difficult for some players.

On the international stage, Bergvall has made four superior appearances for Sweden, but he has not yet begun a game.
This will change soon, however, as national team coach Jon Dahl Tomasson has confirmed that he will be at the start of Sweden’s friendly against Luxembourg.
“It’s fun, but it’s not something I’ve thought so much,” Bergvall said. “Jon and I talked a little. But nothing more specific. We will do it during the days I think.
