Tottenham manager Thomas Frank, speaking to TNT Sports: "Very happy that we won the game, for various reasons.
"The main being that I thought we had a very good performance, especially first half. I really liked how we started the game. Front foot, aggressive, forward, positive so that was very good.
"We scored two good goals, lots of positives from that, and a clean sheet as well. Of course, I would have liked to have kept the ball a bit better in the second half but we haven't won as much as we've wanted to, especially at home, so it was important to get that over the line.
"You often see that, 11 against 10 that can happen. I think first half, you felt it could be a special European night, the fans were absolutely great and really behind the team so happy with that."
On the fans: "They were really behind the team. It was a fantastic thing to hear that atmosphere and energy and how that transmitted to the players. That was special."
On Burnley next: "We need to bring this win, this performance, momentum into Burnley and we need to win."
On top-eight finish: "Of course, it would be amazing to do that. First Burnley, then we can focus on Frankfurt afterwards."
On Dominic Solanke's goal: "I think it's fair to say the margins haven't always been completely with us and you need that sometimes.
"The performance backed up with two things, the second goal but also the red card. It's a red card but you don't just get that, those have gone against us so good performances but also the margins you always need."
On Xavi Simons' performance: "First and foremost, there were many good bits and I liked his mentality to push through with an injury and play with pain.
"He played with determined and focus and I think he had some decisive actions."
On building on this win: "I think this is the eighth game in a row where we've done lots right, now we've got a win as well. That means we look forward to another result on Saturday."
On Lucas Bergvall injury: "They are assessing him now so we will know more on Thursday."
