Tottenham advanced to the semi-finals of the League Cup, but Mourinho was unhappy with his own player when he conceded the equalizing goal for Stoke.
Despite the 3-1 victory, Mourinho reveals after the match his discontent with Dele Alli, which could potentially contribute to cost the team a league cup advancement.
Before Stokes’ Jordan Thompson goal, Alli attempted a small move, which started the counter to goal 1-1.

After the game, Mourinho was asked if he was frustrated with Alli, and then the Spurs manager must have responded, according to The Mirror:
– Yes, a player who plays in that position must be a player who links and creates, not one who creates problems for his own team with counterattacks.

Ten minutes after the goal against, the Englishman was replaced by Erik Lamela. Alli reacted angrily when he was taken off the field and showed his frustration by kicking bottles and gesturing from the sidelines.
Bale wounded?
Another who also came out during the match was Gareth Bale.
The Welshman sent the London team in the lead with a precise header, but when the teams took to the field for the second half, he stayed in the locker room.
Mourinho says that there was talk of a minor injury to the player on loan from Real Madrid.
– It was his decision to be replaced. It was something he felt in the last part of the first half, and he did not want to leave, so he stayed in the locker room, Mourinho said.
