🚨🎙️ Former #THFC boss José Mourinho says the club’s owners PRIORITISED Champions League qualification over winning the Carabao Cup final in 2021. 😳🏆❌
“I remember we had to play Southampton before the final, and my focus was totally on the final.”
I believe one of the reasons (for his sacking) was exactly that my focus was on the final and not on Southampton.”
For the club—not the fans, it was more important to try to qualify for the Champions League, for financial reasons.”
“Harry Kane was injured and was a doubt for the final. If Harry didn’t recover, the striker had to be Son. Imagine a final without Son and Kane.”
“When the boss (Daniel Levy) asked me, ‘What do you think about the Southampton match?’ I said, ‘I want to win. We are going to try to win. But without Harry, I will leave Son on the bench.”
“I think it was a kind of contradiction because, for them, the final didn’t matter much.” 😬
“For me and the players, the final was EVERYTHING!” 🏆

🚨🎙️ Jose Mourinho on Tottenham Hotspur’s Relegation
“Tottenham? They are a club with a disease. They sack the coaches who actually deliver. Pochettino gave them a Champions League final — gone. They did the same to me days before a cup final. And now? They win the Europa League after 17 years without silverware, thanks to Ange, and what do they do? Sack him 16 days later. No loyalty, no vision, just excuses and a big stadium. They betray the men who fight for them. One day this will catch up — maybe not relegation tomorrow, but they will keep falling until they learn: you don’t build success by destroying the winners.”
