Harry Kane wore a face mask to protect a broken nose against Swansea City and Dele Alli injured his foot in warm-up. After visiting sixth-place West Ham, Spurs face Arsena.
But despite the injuries, Pochettino said: "It's easier to prepare for the West Ham game after this victory. The players are happy and it is always a better mood to recover. It is an exciting moment for us, but some players we need to manage because they feel a little bit tired. We came from a very tough period."
