Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino cut a satisfied figure after watching his side grind out a 3-2 win against Everton at White Hart Lane on Sunday.
The victory made it nine consecutive home wins for Spurs, their best run for over seven years, and tightened the North London side's grip on second place in the Premier League.
Speaking toSpurs TV,Pochettino believes that his team are hitting their best at just the right time.
"We played with a lot of confidence, always knowing what we needed to do in every moment and that was fantastic,� said the Argentinian
"The team showed big confidence and that's important for us because now we're at the most important period with the Premier League and FA Cup and we have that consistency and that belief.�
Once again, Spurs striker Harry Kane stole the headlines with a well-taken brace, taking his tally to five goals in two Premier League games. But Pochettino was keen to highlight that there is still work to be done, with the home side conceding two late goals despite their domination throughout.
Overall, it was a very good win, a fantastic performance,� added the Spurs manager. Okay, in the end we're a little disappointed to concede the last goal.
"The first can happen, the second when the game was over after Dele scored, I'm a little disappointed with because we showed a lack of concentration and that can't happen again, but without that, we played very well.
We played a fantastic first half and the second half we dominated and played with good quality and a high tempo. I'm very pleased for everyone and we have to keep going.�
