Tottenham Hotspur head coach Juande Ramos has urged winger Aaron Lennon to improve his crossing to become a top-class performer.

The 20-year-old former Leeds United wideman has already become a regular in the England set-up, but Ramos believes that Lennon still has a lot of improvements to make.

He said: "Everyone has to polish things in their game and improve things, Lennon just has to improve in that particular area (crossing).

"Sometimes you have a player whose performance is way below what they are capable of, but you have to be patient, these players have good qualities and they are going to come through it.

"He has some attributes which are very hard to find in players. It's particularly his pace and it is something he has to take advantage of.

"It's difficult to find players with that level of pace."

Lennon has played nine times for England to date, but has missed out for the first two games of new national team coach Fabio Capello's reign.
