Pochettino relieved as Tottenham return to winners' list

Mauricio Pochettino was delighted for his Tottenham side after they bounced back with an impressive 3-1 win over Newcastle United on Sunday.

Spurs had drawn with Burnley and lost to Aston Villa in their two previous Premier League outings but recoiled with a solid performance at St James' Park courtesy of goals from Nacer Chadli, Christian Eriksen and of course Harry Kane.

Of the performance, Pochettino said: "We fully deserved the victory and the three points. I think our performance was better than Newcastle's and I am very pleased for our players.

"I am happy to recover this feeling after the last two games - that wasn't good and it's important to feel victory again."
