JAKARTA - Antonio Conte believes Lucas Moura is still developing his performance after performing well when Tottenham Hotspur silenced Crystal Palace 3-0 in the English League Boxing Day match in London, last Sunday night.

The Brazilian winger was fully involved in Tottenham's three winning goals in that match.

He scored Tottenham's second goal and provided assists for Harry Kane's opener and Son Heung-min's closing goal.

"Lucas is an important player for us, he has a lot of quality, is good in first control against the ball, is good at creating assists and lives in the opponent's penalty box because he has the accuracy of headings," Conte said after the match.

"I'm happy because he's doing very well and he has to continue with all of this. He can still continue to improve," he added.

Signed from Paris Saint-Germain in the January 2018 transfer window, Lucas Moura has had a relatively ups and downs career with Tottenham.

His first full season in 2018/19 he became one of Mauricio Pochettino's mainstays who signed him at that time and was able to score 15 goals in 49 appearances in all competitions.

However, following the sacking of Pochettino, Lucas Moura was more likely to come off the bench during the Jose Mourinho era.

Tottenham have now moved up to fifth in the Premier League standings with a collection of 29 points thanks to four wins in a record six games without losing since being handled by Conte.

Conte will next lead Tottenham to visit St. Mary's faces Southampton on Tuesday.
