José Mourinho criticizes Tottenham players for being too lazy

Coach José Mourinho said Tottenham’s forwards were “lazy” and did not create enough pressure against Everton.

The highlight of the 2020/2021 Premier League first round match between Tottenham and Everton ended with a 1-0 win for the visitors. The only goal of the match was scored in the 55th minute after Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s header.

In the post-match interview, coach José Mourinho said: “There were some moments that were decisive in the outcome of the game. Dele (Alli) and Doherty’s chances in the first half, excellent blocks and, of course, Everton’s goal was the most important highlight.

I don’t like the way my students played. After we had to give in, we lost our fighting spirit. We are not strong enough, we do not create enough pressure. The attacking players were lazy and that made the squad lose their balance. This is something that frustrates me and I need to find ways to improve.

Not only is this match appealing for the mental match between two top-level world soccer coaches, it also draws the name of James Rodríguez, who recently moved to Everton after his years at Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. With his level, the Colombian midfielder brought the softness and flexibility of the Merseyside soccer team.

With a convincing performance when playing in the Premier League for the first time, James Rodríguez received praise from manager Carlo Ancelotti: “There are players who can play without taking too long to get used to it. James (Rodríguez) knows what to do to show his best qualities and I think he did. So did Allan and Doucoure. They all played well today. “

In addition, the Italian strategist was also satisfied with the performance of the entire team: “This is exactly what I expect from the players. A game is not easy, but the rookie brings a new source of energy. This match shows that Everton can compete with anyone and we will have to maintain this form.
