Tottenham have a chance of winning both the Europa League and the League Cup this season
However, Jose Mourinho who has a reputation of winning trophies wherever he goes wants to continue it with Tottenham this season. Spurs are currently in the Top-4 race in the Premier league, the Europa league and have reached the reached the League Cup final to be played on 26th April against Manchester City.
“I don’t think sometimes it’s fair for an owner, CEO, administrator, a president of a club to be judged on trophies because trophies many times depend on others,” Mourinho said.
“The work done in this club independent of the trophies that the club didn’t get is undeniable. The club is a big club in many aspects. That’s an incredible work from him as the big boss and the whole structure that works for him.
“But the trophies are the salt and pepper of football and I would love to help that to happen. I’m not a big guy on stats but my 1,000th official match is going to arrive this season too for a career where I’ve been lucky enough to win so many things. It would be nice for him to celebrate my 1,000 official matches winning a trophy for Tottenham.”
