Tottenham is currently in first place in the Premier League table, where they are for the first time since August 2014. José Mourinho was very happy after the match.

“I prefer players to talk because they were fantastic. They put everything into it. They followed strategy. Sometimes strategy plays a bigger role in football than ever. They were amazing. “

“It was important to respect the City and not forget what team they are. If you watch some people, they say they’re not as good as they used to be. It’s nonsense. They have a fantastic team. Today they lost to a team that was strategically very good, but City is still City. “

“You have to score goals. It is clear. We didn’t have much of a chance. But at crucial moments, we made it. In addition, you need a top goalkeeper. We knew they would have the ball far more often than we did. But it was nice for us to play like this. We knew how to deal with it. “
