Townsend hopes he's winning over Spurs boss Pochettino

Andros Townsend hopes he's now winning over Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino.

The winger scored for Spurs on Thursday night in the spectacular 5-3 win over Chelsea, the first time he has started successive Premier League games under Pochettino.

"For the manager to trust you and to throw you in against two of the best teams shows great confidence. Hopefully I can repay that faith in me. He is happy with how things are going. You can see that as I have played the last two games he is not looking to ship me out at the first opportunity. That has given me confidence and hopefully now I can get a run in the team and show what everyone what I'm capable of."
