As I said they are great and play great football but the most important thing is the result and we managed to win. "It's important to continue to win these types of games. We dropped points in the last game and against Liverpool so it was very important to win at home especially."Overall, it was a game of few chances - with Dele Alli going closest for Tottenham before Lukaku's header struck the woodwork. But Martial's introduction in place of Marcus Rashford changed the course of proceedings, and the France striker acknowledged that - after netting four goals from the bench this season - he is eager to start more games. "I want to play," Martial told Sky Sports."I don't want to be on the bench but Rashford has played good too, so the manager wants to try to give us a chance so we have to score and give assists. "The manager told me to find the space. I know Romelu is good with his head and it was a good header so I found the space behind and managed to score."</blockquote>
