Andre Villas-Boas reckons Tottenham are in good shape to challenge Manchester United on Sunday after they emerged from their trek to the Arctic Circle with a much-needed win.
Villas-Boas’ position as Tottenham manager came under scrutiny following last week’s 6-0 defeat at Manchester City, but the Portuguese tasted victory again on Thursday in Tromso.
“I am very happy for the players to have bounced back from the defeat against Man City,” the Spurs boss said. “Obviously the opponent we have on Sunday is the biggest that we can have.
“But to prepare for that game, it was important to get back to winning ways in Europa League and we did it in a fashion where we looked solid and created lots of chances. I am extremely happy with the performance and result.”
