“With the squad, we have at the moment it’s going to be very, very difficult.”

Tottenham’s players pose for the team photo prior to the UEFA Champions League football match between RB Leipzig and Tottenham Hotspur, in Leipzig, eastern Germany on March 10, 2020.

Faced with the same mountain to climb, there was nothing left in the Tottenham tank during a 3-0 defeat in Leipzig on Tuesday. “With the squad, we have at the moment it’s going to be very, very difficult,” said Mourinho, whose side sit eighth in the Premier League, seven points adrift of the top four.A run of six games without a win is the worst of Mourinho’s long managerial career. However, there are mitigating circumstances.

“I think every team in the world would struggle with five or six of their most important players missing, it is as simple as that,” said Mourinho.Yet, it is hard to see how Mourinho’s negativity is helping his squad to do any more than limp towards the end of the season.“A broken team that under the joyless stewardship of Jose Mourinho has been broken still further,” wrote the Guardian.

The Germans are a young, hungry, energetic, exciting team led by one most coveted emerging managers in European football in Julian Nagelsmann.Not a single player was signed for 18 months between January 2018 and July 2019 that put a huge strain on a stretched squad.
