Pochettino praises his players after Old Trafford victory

Tottenham Hotspur coach Maurizio Pochettino has praised the belief and faith of his players after they thrashed Manchester United by three goals to nothing at Old Trafford.

One goal from Harry Kane and two from Lucas Moura ensured that Spurs got their third straight win in the Premier League this season.

Speaking after the game, Pochettino said, Football.London reports: "Of course the players deserve all the credit and their belief and their faith was fantastic."

Tottenham were criticised for failing to sign any player during the transfer window, but with three wins in their opening fixtures, the critics have been silenced, at least, for the meantime.

United on the other hand, made some signings, but they were not to the satisfaction of Jose Mourinho who wanted more, especially in central defence.

United fans were happy with the attacking display in the first half, and applauded at the end of the game.

It will be interesting to see how United face their upcoming games, beginning with the weekend fixture against Burnley.
