Mauricio Pochettino believes his Tottenham players are forging a "special connection" with the club's supporters.
Saturday's win at QPR took Spurs to within three points of fourth-placed Manchester United and had Pochettino striding on to the Loftus Road pitch to take a photograph of the away end.
The manager wanted a souvenir of a crowd including his brother and two sons, but the gesture spoke of a blossoming relationship between the Argentine's team and the fans.
He said: "I think the connection is special now. At the beginning it was different, now it's a reality and the connection between the team and the supporters is fantastic.
"It's good because the team shows great character. The results make the supporters feel very proud of the team.
"I took the picture as a souvenir. It was a fantastic moment for me and for (my family). It was the first time I've done it in my career."
Pochettino's side includes home-grown talent in Ryan Mason, Andros Townsend and top scorer Harry Kane, who hit two more at the weekend,
Asked if his family knew Spurs supporters' song for Kane, Pochettino said: "Yes. They have the chance to go to the executive box or be in a better area, but they prefer to sing the songs with the fans."
