Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou has told fans to "dream" after going five points clear at the top of the table.

At Crystal Palace on Friday night, Spurs held a 2-0 lead through an own goal and Heung-min Son effort before Jordan Ayew's injury-time goal.

Posetcoglou later said: "Let them [the Tottenham fans] dream. That's what being a football supporter is all about it's fair to say this lot have suffered a fair bit.

"This is a tough place to come and we had to work for our victory. They're a really well organised team and I knew we had to be patient... it was another different way for us to win a game.

"It's still a new team but they're handling all these different scenarios really well.

"I think for us - you know what it's like when you get a bit of momentum, my role within that is just to keep pushing them. I just think there's still so much more growth in this team.

"Provided they're still coming in every day and working hard that gives me the opportunity to keep pushing them."
