Midfielder Dele Alli has claimed that Tottenham Hotspur deserve to win a trophy after their development in recent years.
Despite four successive top-four finishes in the Premier League and an appearance in last season's Champions League final, Spurs are still looking to end their 12-year wait for silverware.
After contributing to Spurs' 3-2 victory over Southampton in Wednesday's FA Cup fourth round replay, Alli feels that the North London outfit deserve a pay-off for their progression.
Speaking to BT Sport, the England international said: "It says a lot about the character we have. To go from such a big game at the weekend, it's easy to lose a game like this.
"We showed great character, at times a bit sloppy, but sometimes it takes one little switch and I think it was their second goal.
"It has been a long time coming, we are one of the best teams in the world in the years we have been together, we deserve a trophy, but no-one is going to give it to us, we have to keep pushing and not just for us but for the fans we have to win something."
Spurs will host Norwich City in the FA Cup fifth round at the beginning of March.
