Aston Villa's players were full of confidence after last night's 2-1 win at Tottenham.

Goal scorer Nigel Reo-Coker said: "It's just hard work and determination.

"We can be as strong as we want to be. The Premier League is very strong and competitive - we are just focusing on getting points on the board."

Gareth Barry added: "They had a lot of pressure but we saw it out well."
