Tottenham 1-0 Burnley
Tottenham Hotspur
More from Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino on his tactical approach against Burnley: "I think it was three centre backs for the first time under Sean Dyche but we didn’t concede a shot on target.
"We dominated possession they put a lot of players behind the ball and play deep and wanted to stop us.
"On an afternoon like today with the rain and the pitch not in best condition, we were not fresh enough to find tempo with the ball so it is difficult to play and I think that is why I am so pleased."
On rotating his squad and 18-year-old midfielder Oliver Skipp making his full debut: "I am happy because it is not easy to play every three days, many players are out.
"Oliver Skipp made his debut, it is fantastic because to keep going in difficult circumstances pleases me and the way we are competing this season pleases me."
