Newcastle fully deserved their 2-1 win at Tottenham but it was a concern that they did not win more comfortably, says ex-Magpies defender John Anderson.

Malick Thiaw put Newcastle ahead with Archie Gray equalising before Jacob Ramsey netted the winner.

"They made hard work of it," said BBC Radio Newcastle summariser Anderson at full-time.

"It should have been more comfortable. Against better sides you won't get away with it. We dominated.

"Spurs were so open and so stretched. We didn't take advantage of it and then gave a bad equaliser away.
