Tottenham had a difficult start to the season when Everton got too strong on Sunday.
It was in an interview with Sky Sports immediately after the end of the game that José Mourinho made the statements that, according to British media, have created reactions in the Spurs stable.

The Portuguese had just seen his team lose the midfield war against Everton’s reinforced squad and was not impressed with the performance.
– The problem starts with how we push, or I mean how we don’t push. Our pressure was very, very bad. I’d say we are lazy on pressure. When you’re lazy on pressure, you let your opponent build from behind, and they have fantastic quality players, Mourinho told Sky Sports.
See the interview at the end of the article.
– The players discussed the interview.
It is the use of the word “lazy” that should have reacted to the Tottenham players, although the coach does not say directly that the players are lazy, but that the team was lazy in pressure, writes the Daily Mail.
The newspaper assures that the statements spread quickly among the players, who have discussed the matter among themselves. However, the Portuguese will continue to have the support of the majority of the stable’s players.
Left-back Ben Davies was one of the players directly asked about Mourinho’s remarks after the match.
– I think everyone worked really hard. Personally, I gave everything I had. The performance was not good enough yet, but it’s hard to say that the effort is continuing, Davies said.
– Mourinho-vane
The Mirror also mentions partial discontent in the Tottenham dressing room, and that Mourinho’s habit of blaming player effort and individual achievements can have long-term consequences.
Already on Thursday, Tottenham will have a chance to fight back when Lokomotiv Plovdiv is a rival in the Europa League qualifying rounds.
On Sunday, Southampton is a rival in the Premier League.
