DEJAN KULUSEVSKI loves playing against Manchester City and takes it personally whenever he locks horns with Pep Guardiola's champions.
The Swede grabbed two assists in Tottenham's gutsy 2-1 Carabao Cup triumph against City on Wednesday to set quarter-final against up a Manchester United.
The 24-year-old, who is thriving as a central playmaker under Ange Postecoglou, has registered more contributions - three goals and four assists against City than any other opponent in Guardiola's reign.
Kulusevski said: "I knew I had to do something important as it's amazing to play against this team.
"I take it personally to play against City. I promised myself that I was going to have a good game and I think I did."
