Tottenham Hotspur is one of the teams that stole the attention at the start of this season. The Lilywhites-nicknamed Tottenham- even proved their quality not only in domestic competition but also at European level.
In the Premier League event, Harry Kane and colleagues had occupied the top ranks even though at this time they had to be shifted to sixth position. Even so, they are only six points adrift of Liverpool who are at the top.
While on the European scene, their steps in the 2020-2021 European League are still continuing. Son Heung-min and colleagues will face Austrian representatives, Wolfberger, in the last 32.
Seeing this slick performance, the former Tottenham coach, Tim Sherwood, is inseparable from the big role of the coach, Jose Mourinho. According to him, Mourinho is indeed an important actor in the neat appearance shown by Tottenham this season.
Sherwood said Mourinho had succeeded in getting the Tottenham players to believe fully in all his plans in the team. That skill is what Sherwood cites as one of the factors that makes Mourinho easily form his team.
Many think Tottenham only need to have full confidence in the Portuguese coach. Armed with an extraordinary squad, the opportunity to win the trophy was wide open if they could have more faith in the coach.
“He finds a way with the group of players he has. He forms a team very well, Sergio Reguilon is a good signing at left back, but Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg for me is the best signing,” Sherwood said as quoted from the Goal International website on Friday ( 25/12/2020).
“All the players who come fit his coaching style. Jose (Mourinho) has brainwashed his players into believing that they have to work to achieve something. They need to win trophies,” he continued.
“I think they have great strength to do it at the moment. When you play as strong as them, he (Mourinho) almost looks like they brainwash them to believe,” he continued.
Sherwood added, currently Tottenham have quality players and are quite evenly distributed in various positions. Starting from Hugo Lloris, Sergio Reguilon as well as the front line duo of Son Heung-min and Harry Kane.
Apart from these names, there are still many capable players who have made The Lilywhites squad so deadly this season. In addition, the close relationship between players has also been nurtured well for a long time.
