Mourinho laments Tottenham’s “lack of ambition”

Jose Mourinho’s Tottenham drew 1-1 against Wolves. Mourinho’s side led in the 1st minute of the match when Tanguy Ndombele scored, but Wolves scored a late equalizer in the 86th minute.
Jose Mourinho said Tottenham’s lack of attacking intent was not inspired by him after dropping 2 more points. Tottenham have not won in their last 4 league games, which has seen them drop to 5th in the League.
Tottenham are currently 5th in the League
“It is disappointing, of course,” Mourinho said, acknowledging frustration after Tanguy Ndombele’s goal after 57 seconds was cancelled out by Romain Saiss’ late header.
“We had control of the game. But we had 89 minutes to score more goals, and we didn’t. And it was not just about not scoring goals, it was also about not being dangerous, not being ambitious, and for me that’s the problem.”
“It is a concern. The fact we score early goals and we don’t kill matches. We must score another, it’s as simple as that. Even defending very well, which we did as a team, that is not enough. Even if we had done that and we won 1-0, my feeling would be the same.”
Mourinho also lamented his team’s vulnerability from set pieces. “It’s disappointing, of course. And tomorrow we are going to have a similar meeting to other meetings we have had and we are going to practise the same thing we have practised after similar situations.”
Mourinho’s side have now dropped nine points this season with goals conceded in the final 10 minutes of a game – the most of any Premier League side. Tottenham only registered 6 shots in the whole match after scoring a goal in 56 seconds.
Mourinho, now has three days to recover before their match against Fulham at home. He would be desperate for the 3 points to close the gap on leaders Liverpool.
