Matip was happy with victory over Huddersfield.

“At this club the expectations are big," he said.

“Are the criticisms always deserved? I don't know, maybe. I don't have to judge the criticism against us, I only do my best and carry on.

“Against Tottenham, me and the rest of the team made mistakes and we got criticised. This is what it means to belong to a big club, to be a professional footballer.

“A lot of people are looking, they are waiting, and if we don't perform we expect them to do this. Of course it is tough but it is football.

“We are young, really young, we're staying together, and we will improve.

“The players in this team, we are looking forward to what we can become, how we can develop, and we enjoy being part of this team."
