"We are growing game by game, day by day - its a work in progress and we are nowhere near the end.
"I would have liked more of the ball in the second half but it was a really good win and we always looked like we would get into positions to create and score.
"We defended brilliantly and we got our just rewards.
"Every team wants to keep clean sheets and we respect that side of the game. But we are scoring goals as well, we work on both sides of the game equally and we are clear about how we want to play and we are getting good returns.
"We have a good balance between youth and experience, we talked before the game about needing a squad with constant changes this month in particular and with our balance it will serve us well.
"He (Hourihane) has hit the ground running with goals but he has really bought into what we do and how we work, he is a really good professional and his overall performances are excellent.
"You can't put too much expectation on these lads with 19 games to go, we are going well, enjoying the journey and will take it game by game. That is how we work."
