Belgium midfielder Moussa Dembele is aiming to take six points out of six from his country’s two international matches over the next week, despite the opposition, in Wales and Croatia, being tough.
Dembele is on a high, having just completed a switch from Fulham to Tottenham Hotspur in the English Premier League, and also scored on his Spurs debut – leading to rave reviews and predictions of much success for the attacking midfielder at White Hart Lane.
For now though Dembele is turning his attention to the international scene, where Belgium hope to produce a fine qualifying campaign for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, a tournament they would love to reach.
And so for the 25-year-old, six points from six is the target.
"We aim to get six out of six", said Dembele.
"I think this campaign is at the right time when you see where everyone plays and the transfers some have made", he added, casting his eye over the Belgium squad.
"Everyone has in the meantime gained more experience and has played for the national team for longer."
On a personal note, the former Fulham man admits that he has had a hectic time, having completed a move from Craven Cottage to White Hart Lane.
"This week has been chaotic and stressful", said Dembele.
"But we know in advance that the last week of the transfer window will unfold like this."
