Spurs whizkid Lucas Bergvall has opened up about his baptism of fire in the Premier League when he got a rollicking from Guglielmo Vicario.

The 18-year-old hotshot, who made an £8.5million move from Djurgarden, has been wowing Ange Postecoglou and the Tottenham coaching staff since jumping ship to North London, snatching him right from under Barcelona's nose.

Though he's just a teen, Bergvall has already come off the bench in all three of Tottenham's season openers. But his debut against Leicester was almost a nightmare, when he made a dodgy pass that could've cost his team big time.

Introduced in the dying minutes with Spurs fighting for a victory at 1-1, the youngester slipped up, nearly gifting Leicester the win. And goalkeeper Vicario didn't hold back, givinghim a piece of his mind. But according to Bergvall, it's all water under the bridge now.

"Sometimes you do slightly worse things, sometimes you do better things," Bergvall confessed to Aftonbladet. "We were 1-0 up with a fairly comfortable lead. We conceded 1-1 and then that happens (when he lost the ball)," reports the Express.

"All is calm now. We have talked about it. Vicario said that there are hot feelings and things like that that happen."

Spurs' summer signings have turned their midfield into a battleground, with Yves Bissouma, Rodrigo Bentancur, and Pape Sarr now joined by newbies Archie Gray and Bergvall, all vying for a spot in the starting XI.

Bergvall, who made the leap from Sweden's Allsvenskan to the Premier League, admitted the transition was challenging but exciting. "The only thing I knew was that it would be tough," he said.

"It was a motivation when I came to a new league with new people, new team-mates, new coaches, new facilities, diet, training, physical activity, everything. It feels like I have taken very big steps in these two months.

"The quality of the players and the teams you face... it's incredible quality, everywhere. It is not possible to make that many mistakes or any mistakes at all.

"You must always be ready. This is the case regardless of where you play, but now it can be punished a little easier."
