The manager reflected, "It was a great win and a solid performance. We've been consistent all year, but it's satisfying to see our efforts rewarded with a win today. We could have scored more goals, but ultimately, we got the job done."

On Maddison's goal: "You're always keeping the opposition in the game (at 2-1) and it's been the story of our season so far. It was a quality goal from three of our four captains, who I think got involved in it. It was important to finish the game off."

On Solanke's first goal for Spurs, Postecoglou said: "Dom worked his socks off. He was gone at the end. He is still getting back to match fitness, but I know he is going to provide so much for us in that central position. All strikers love goals so it will be a great moment for him especially at home."

He was also happy for Johnson: "He's had a top week, he's scored two goals, he's won us a game to get through in the (League) Cup. Life's good. Sometimes going through tough moments gives you perspective of what's important."
