Did you gradually, through the course of the game, feel the supporters coming back to you?

I think we said it at half-time, even the supporters are gradually growing into the game and we're gradually turning them around.

Normally we start second halves not so well, but we started really well.

Once we opened our legs in midfield with Wijnaldum and Sissoko, we were a big threat, and it shows what we can do.

It's all about players.

It's all about players' desire, discipline, concentration, focus to do the work.

So there's always a plan and always when you lose, the plan goes wrong.

But today, we talked about the work rate, we talked about the two hardest working players had to be Sissoko and Wijnaldum in the system that we play.

They did that.

We pressed from the front.

We worked as a team.

We kept compact.

And when you keep your discipline, when you keep your focus, when you put the work in, when you compete, win your duels.

then you get results.

How important that this isn't a full storm, that you're going from this?

We've come to this position, probably this is about the third time where you think, right, come on, the penny's dropped, you know what you have to do to win, we know what we have to do Monday to Friday to win, and Saturday.

And, again, you'd like to say, yeah, this is the beginning, this is the start.

We've had it before.

We've got to maintain it.

Not easy next week at Spurs, but I think for 24 hours we'll enjoy this.
