Tottenham boss Postecoglou happy goals being shared after winning at Bournemouth

Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou was delighted with their 2-0 win at Bournemouth.

James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski struck the goals for Spurs.

Postecoglou said: "I thought the first half was really good. Some of our football and intensity in our play was really good. We kind of knew Bournemouth would put us under some pressure. I thought we held out really well. We didn't start the first half too well in the first 10, 15 minutes, but then after the second goal we controlled the game really well. I was really pleased through most of it that we maintained our discipline.

"It makes us a more difficult team to try and stop because the goals can come from different avenues so we want to be that sort of team. It's not just because Harry left, it's the way I set my teams up. We can have multiple threats from wide or central areas. It makes it harder for the opposition to stop us."

On the away fans being happy, he added: "It's nice. They're part of this. We need their energy and their support. We give back for the support they've given us, that goes hand in hand. I said before the game, the more we're united as a football club, the better chance we have of success."
