Mauricio Pochettino: 'Win over Stoke City was almost perfect'

Tottenham Hotspur coach Mauricio Pochettino has told of his delight after his side produced a dominant display in their 4-0 away victory over Stoke City in the Premier League.

Spurs picked up their second win of the new campaign as striker Harry Kane opened his account this term, leaving coach Pochettino to praise his charges for an almost-perfect showing on the road.

"It was an important result for us. I'm very pleased for our players and for our supporters. It was almost perfect today," the Argentine told reporters after the game. "We started the game a little bit sloppy. They were better from the beginning, [but] it helped a lot when Son scored and second half we were much better.

"At the end we have to be happy, we have ahead a lot of games, seven in [around] 20 days, so it's important for us as a squad that all the players believe they can play. We've only just started this season but this victory is important for us."

Spurs currently hold fourth spot in the league standings with eight points.
