Premier League result: Harry Kane leads Tottenham Hotspur to victory against Frank Lampard's Everton at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

“People may make us underdogs in these two matches (Spurs and then Newcastle away). I understand that, because we’re away against two strong teams. Let’s enjoy that and show what we can do. We’re in a position now where if we take any hits, we have to come back stronger. We took a lot of hits last season when I came in and before I came in. We were on the floor in terms of confidence. Now we want to be stronger than that mentally, as a club. These games are a big test for us. We have got a long way to go. We’re progressing but we mustn’t think we’re near where want to be because we’re not yet. We have work to be done."

“I’m very happy to play again, to help my team-mates again because this is what I love to do, to play football. Now I need to recover my best form and shape and do my best. It was amazing to feel the affection from the fans. I don’t have the words to explain it. It is a big motivation for me. I love this club, I love the fans, I love to play for Tottenham so to feel the welcome back, the warmth from them. It was amazing. It helped me a lot.”

“Frank is a young manager but he’s doing very well, he had a great experience with Chelsea and he’s doing a really good job. They started the season so-so, but now I think they reached a good stability. They have a good balance and they’re showing great solidity, especially defensively."

“Everyone here is looking up, looking to the future and is excited about where this team can go. We’ve got good characters and great ability here. Seeing the players we’ve brought in and how much of a close-knit squad we’ve got, it’s a really positive place to be. The coaching is unbelievable and there’s a great work-ethic. The squad’s changed quite a bit and the mentality has probably changed a little bit, too. People are excited to be out there training and looking forward to games. I’m proud to be a part of it."

Anthony Gordon misses out through suspension so Frank Lampard is forced into one change to the side that lost at home to Man United.

Dwight McNeil gets the nod to take his place.

Spurs make three changes from the Champions League win over Eintracht Frankfurt with Matt Doherty, Ivan Perisic and Ben Davies all involved.

One notable name on in the Lilywhites’ starting XI is Richarlison, who is fit to face his former club despite picking up a knee problem in midweek.
