Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino says his players believe their title push is on after a 1-0 win over Watford.

Pochettino's men moved up to second in the table after a second-half strike from Kieran Trippier sealed a 1-0 win over Watford at White Hart Lane.

"You can see in their eyes, the feeling, the energy, that they believe," Pochettino said.

"In football belief is the most important word. If we believe, anything can happen. I believe in my squad and they believe too in the way we play. This synergy is very important for the future.

"But it is better not to speak too much, only to show, to work hard.

"This is the better way to show we are ready to compete and after, we see what happens. But the most important thing is to do rather than speak."
