Tottenham midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg insists he has no problem being jeered by his own fans.

Hojbjerg says he takes the half-time boos as a compliment after Antonio Conte earned his first win as Tottenham head coach with a stirring comeback against Leeds on Sunday.

“I kind of understand [the boos]," Hojbjerg said afterwards. “I hope it won't happen again but I understand there are high demands and high pressure.

“The fans have great expectations because we're a great team, so I take that as a compliment. We're here to perform well and let the fans celebrate, which is the main thing. We did that in the second half and the fans were incredible in the second half also, so let's try to do that from the start."

Hojbjerg added, “Technically, it wasn't a perfect game from us. A couple of mistakes. I have to say the way Leeds play is very demanding and very aggressive. They cause these individual mistakes.

“But I thought collectively we came out for the second half very aggressively, on top with a good attitude. We got the stadium with us, with fantastic support. To come back the way we did, from a character and mental point of view, I thought was very important and very strong."
