Son Heung-Min has warned Liverpool and Manchester City that Tottenham are coming for them, having declared it a three-horse race for the Premier League title.
Spurs came from behind to beat Watford 2-1 on Wednesday night, while Liverpool and City both dropped points.
The South Korea international scored in his first appearance following the Asian Cup then spoke about how Tottenham will continue to chase their rivals.
'I don't care that people are saying Liverpool or Man City,' Son said when asked about the title race. 'We are still there, we're going for it.
'We'll see what is going to happen at the end of the season. They're very good sides like us. We have to just focus on ourselves. Every single game, get three points, that's most important. The season is still long.'
Son and Fernando Llorente scored late goals at Wembley to leave Spurs two points off City and seven off Liverpool.
'We don't want to think about it,' Son continued. 'So many things can happen, you can't even imagine.
'We just believe in our own games, get as many points as possible, and see what happens at the end of the season.'
Third-placed Spurs are just two points behind Manchester City and seven off leaders Liverpool
Son watched Spurs while away with South Korea as they were dumped out of the Carabao Cup by Chelsea then the FA Cup by Crystal Palace. Tottenham face Newcastle next in the Saturday lunch-time kick-off in the Premier League.
Son said: 'It hurt like you can't even imagine. I must follow, if I don't follow I can't sleep! They were on TV. The Premier League, it's everywhere in the world.
'When I saw the Fulham game we scored in the last minute, I was happy but also Dele was injured. It hurt.
'This was very important to get three points again. It was a difficult game but we showed good character and got three points. It was very important.'
