Tottenham Hotspurs manager, Jose Mourinho, has said his side’s chances of qualifying for the Champions League has been boosted by a 2-0 win over West Ham on Tuesday.
The Hammers held their hosts for over an hour, before Tomas Soucek’s own goal broke the deadlock. Harry Kane then netted his first of 2020 to seal Spurs’ first win in eight matches in all competitions.
Mourinho’s men have now moved into seventh position with 45 points, one behind Manchester United in fifth spot.
“First of all three points were not important, they were crucial, I said to the players ‘don’t think if we don’t win this match we can still think about chances’, it was three points or nothing. We were too slow and predictable in the first half but we were stronger and more intense in the second half.” Mourinho told reporters.
Ndombele is believed to have the support of his team-mates, with many of them telling Mourinho’s backroom staff how impressed they’ve been with his performances in training.
Tanguy Ndombele, could be on his way out of the club, after telling manager Jose Mourinho he never wants to play for him again, TF1 reports.
Ndombele only moved to Spurs from Lyon last summer in a club record £55million deal. However, he has struggled to recapture his best form in North London.
The French midfielder is yet to play a single minute since the Premier League restarted and was again benched for the 2-0 win over West Ham on Tuesday night.
During the COVID-19 lockdown, Mourinho flouted lockdown rules to give Ndombele extra training sessions in April.
But the two men have fallen out and are no longer on speaking terms. It has led to some Spurs players trying to mediate between them.
