Tottenham Hotspur are in a bit of an injury crisis with players dropping like flies, and that continued in the Lilywhites fixture against Southampton in the English top tier yesterday, where defender Destiny Udogie had to be taken off in under half an hour from the kick-off.

On how important a win tonight was: "It helps. You just want the players to feel good and get a reward for their efforts. We can't rest or rotate and you want them to feel good. They get their reward tonight and we'll recover and get ready for a big game on Thursday."

In a welcome boost for Ange Postecoglou, Tottenham Hotspur dominates bottom-placed Southampton to record its seventh win of the English Premier League season.
