Even if you can’t buy much at LASK: After 3: 3 against Linz, Tottenham head coach José Mourinho left Gugl really angry. While he was still on the sidelines, he wrote a message to all the players: “Practice tomorrow, but at twelve o’clock.” In other words: not as early as after 0-1 in Antwerp, when he let his players dance at eleven o’clock. But for his team, whose charter plane landed in London well after midnight local time after the Linz performance, under normal circumstances there would never have been a lunchtime training session. “Some of our players are not taking the Europa League as seriously as they should,” said Mourinho, who congratulated LASK on their performance immediately after the final whistle. “There was a huge difference in intensity, communication and enthusiasm between LASK and us. And that didn’t even surprise me.”
Leading Players Excluded
Criticism of his own team became even clearer. “When we go to Antwerp or Linz and we see the empty stadium and bad weather, some people think that they shouldn’t be here.” Leaders such as striker Son and midfielder Pierre-Emil Höjbjerg were explicitly excluded. “They always play because it doesn’t work without them. And yet they always show the right attitude. It doesn’t matter where and against whom.” The 3: 3 was barely noticed in the English media: everyone is waiting for the derby against Arsenal on Sunday.
