Stoke City boss Mark Hughes says victory over Tottenham was their best of the season.

Stoke thumped Spurs 3-0 after goals from Charlie Adam, Steven Nzonzi and Mame Diouf.

"I think it's up there with our best performances of the season," the Welshman said.

"I was delighted today. I thought from start to finish that the level of performance was really high. The quality of play was excellent, certainly in the first half when we dominated what was, on paper, a really good Spurs side.

"I don't think we allowed them to get a foothold in the game. They had the problem of going down to 10 men but in fairness that was probably their better period.

"Overall we were very comfortable in the game."
