(Reuters) - Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte said it will be difficult for his team to finish in the top four of the Premier League this season, adding that recent wins were not enough and the squad has room for improvement.

Arsenal's request to postpone the north London derby last weekend gave Conte and his players an additional week to prepare for Wednesday's clash at Leicester City, where they clinched a remarkable 3-2 victory in stoppage time.

"It is a pleasure to see my team fight until the end but if you cut four points off our table then maybe you don't ask me this question," he responded to a suggestion that Tottenham were up for at least a top-four finish this season. "It's important that our captain is not only here for one year, but two years. He's a point of reference for the whole club and also for me," Conte said.
