Antonio Conte believes the international break has come at a bad time for Tottenham after their 3-1 win against West Ham.
Sunday’s victory over the Hammers made it four wins in their last five Premier League matches.
Could this be Crystal Palace’s greatest ever season?
Tottenham took an early 2-0 lead against David Moyes’ men before Said Benrahma got one back for the visitors before half-time.
Heung-min Son’s late goal secured the points for Spurs, who are now three points behind fourth-placed Arsenal, who have a game in hand.
“I am very delighted not only for the three points but for the performance,” said Conte (via BBC).
“Today we played really, really well. We dominated the game from the start until the end. I enjoyed seeing my team play football. Now I repeat we have to continue to work and we are seeing the improvement every week.
“It’s a pity it is the international break now because we are in great form and are playing really well. But at the same time we now have to rest.
“I think that my team is improving in many aspects. In the last period, despite so many defeats, the performance have been good. To be a strong team you have to be stable.”
On Spurs’ top-four chances, Conte said: “We have this ambition, the ambition is to target fourth place. Before my arrival this seemed difficult to reach. But now after five months this is starting working.
“We want to stay in this race until the end. It’s very difficult but we are improving in a way that I like. I think we lost two games at home to Southampton and Wolverhampton that killed us in the moment.
“But also it was the right moment to go stronger and to work harder and to continue to make improvements in many aspects.
“This team is growing in the mentality, they are learning to control the game and this is very important.”
