José Mourinho declared himself “super happy” after Tottenham’s 2-0 win over Manchester City, which sent Spurs to the top of the Premier League.
“To have such discipline you need more than discipline, you need a great desire to do it and great solidarity,” the coach rejoiced.
“It took a lot of effort and the guys were fantastic. I’m super happy and super proud of them. It was a real team performance where everyone gave their best.”
Tottenham could maintain the first position after the end of this round, if today Leicester fail to beat Liverpool.
“I prefer to be in first place, but I am not obsessed. I do not care about the table, the opponent and the competition, we just want to win all the following games. We are in the process of development and there are good signs of evolution at all levels,” he added Mourinho. .
Joseph Guadiola’s comment was that Hyun-Min Son’s first goal in the 5th minute turned out to be crucial.
“It could have been better. We played like we did all season. We didn’t defend well on the first goal. After that, Tottenham started to defend very deep in their own half. They defended with six and it wasn’t easy. However, we had our chances, but we couldn’t score. They created two or three counterattack chances and we lost the game, “Pep explained.
“Before the game we knew that we should not allow the first goal. Mourinho’s teams are like that, you are wrong and they punish the counterattack.”
