The Russian international striker, who has made no secret of his desire to leave White Hart Lane, came off the bench to score twice in Spurs' 3-0 win at the DW Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
"The fans love him," the Spurs boss told Sky Sports after the match.
"He's got ability and when he wants to play and wants to work he's great.
"It was a great performance from us today. I was really pleased with the attitude we showed."
