    Spurs boss Jose Mourinho speaking to BT Sport about the bringing on three regular first-team players after an hour: "The game is open, when I thought about the changes the result was 0-0 then we scored a goal but that didn't change my mind.

    "We needed a little bit more of routines which these players (Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and Tanguy Ndombele) have, and the intensity. They had the intensity because they play week in week out. We managed to keep Antwerp away from our goal. Joe Hart didn't make a single save. 0-0 at half time - I thought in the second half with bit of intensity they will collapse.

    "It was a great free kick from Gareth Bale and a striker smelling the second ball to score. The decision was made. Harry is Harry and Sonny is intense.

    "I can't keep the squad happy. I believe they are happy because we are winning but they're not happy because they're not playing."

    On Harry Winks leaving the pitch: "Every player that left the pitch I told them to go to the shower because it was cold. Some decided to go and some decided to stay."

    Both Dele and Winks have had great form at times but not permanent class. They have (hopefully) been found out. And that's from a life long Spurs fan. Should have sold Dele three seasons ago.

    Look, Harry Winks is a neat and tidy player and the fact he’s an academy player means he probably gets less flak than he maybe should. Bottom line is he’s not a natural defensive midfielder and the statistics of 2 goals and 2 assists in 98 Premier League appearances unfortunately speaks volumes for a central midfielder.

    Jose Mourinho laughs and admits that he "can't keep everyone happy". He seems happy enough with it though.

    Did Harry Winks storm off?

    "Every player I tell them to go straight to the shower when it is cold."

    Spurs defender Japhet Tanganga: "We knew this game was a must win so that we could go top of the table. We go into the next round against a lesser team because we'll be in the higher pot.

    "I've been out for a long time with injuries. I'm grateful the manager has put me back in.

    "We all worked together well at the back and kept a clean-sheet."

    Leicester 2-0 AEK Athens

    Leicester City

    Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers speaking to BT Sport: "I thought in the first half, in particular, we were very good. We wanted to start strong and aggressive.

    "I thought we were excellent. We worked our shape really well, we had some great moments in the game. Second half we went a little bit passive midway through but everything I asked of the players they did."

    On Harvey Barnes and Luke Thomas: "Two young boys through the academy. They have so much ability. We were trying to encourage them to run without the ball. Harvey Barnes was great tonight, getting in behind and Luke did very well tonight too."

    On Cengiz Under: "He is adapting to how we play. He has to work harder but it's something that he's working very hard on and he's got great power and a great left foot. It was a great finish and great technique."

    On Leicester's season so far: "We embraced all the games we've had. We have seen this as an opportunity to qualify as top but also for experience. A lot of our players haven't played in Europe, so it's been a great opportunity for us to use the squad. The level has been really good and the competition so far has been really good.

    "With all the injuries that we've had, fourth place in the Premier League and qualifying for Europe, that's a huge testament to the players to how they've worked and adapted."

    Agreed Winks is not first choice but a moment's pause would have reversed the substitutions, still won the game and a happier squad tomorrow at training!

    Leicester City

    Leicester goalscorer Harvey Barnes speaking to BT Sport: "The tournament is new to us, we know it will be a tough challenge but we are really happy to finish top of the group.

    "It was important to be top, that was a big objective for us. I thought we played very well tonight and we just keep scoring goals for the team.

    "It's something I want to do [score goals]. I've scored six. It's important not just to play well in games but also to get goals.

    "We've really enjoyed it. It's been hard playing Thursday and the weekend, that's something for us to adapt to but I think we have coped well. There will be a bit of rotation to keep everyone fresh but we're glad to go through."

    Still don't see how Dele can prove his worth if he doesn't get to play. It's a fairly integral part of the process.

    Philip, Spurs fan, Essex

    The perils of success...to Spurs fans digging out Dele or Winks, consider Aurier and Ndombele, either back the team or shut up.

    A first win in six home games for Celtic and that might take some of the heat off under-pressure manager Neil Lennon.

    Lille have to settle for second place in Group H, behind AC Milan, who won at Sparta Prague.

    Spudlud: To put it in simple terms, Winks isn’t good enough for Spurs’ first team. And he doesn’t fit in with what Jose wants. Squad player for Spurs.

    Anyone who doesn't understand the absolute sense and winning mentality of those Spurs changes, go pick a different team or sport...it's perfect psychology all round
