He tried to play Dele Alli as a false number 9 but the gamble didn't work at all. I understand why he tried to do that. They are in a complete crisis right now and i remember him trying to play Lucas too in the forward position in some Premier League games but still things did work.
They just need a natural striker right now.
In my opinion Mourinho has to be blamed as regards the team performance, there are some key players you don't sell from a team, the likes of Eriksen and Danny Rose comes to mind, just 2 chances were created, out of the whole 90+ minutes, Aurier was a flop, couldn't give a decent cross, the midfield was a shamble, the defense... ugh!
Playing Alli as a false 9 sums up the total Shit, Imagine Lucas Moura playing behind Eriksen, Alli and Lamela , Obviously there is gonna be a goal even if they won't qualify, Mou should be ashamed of himself not scorring a goal both on home ground and away, he just keep feeding on the fact that his key players are injured. He needs to change his outdated. I won't be surprise if Tottenham does not qualify for next year Champions League
It is obvious to see that Spurs cannot qualify for the champions league next season, because manchester united will complete their rot come sunday evening, if no matches are postponed.
The loss against leizpig is not acceptable, but the excuses makes it even boring to be honest, is Mourinho saying that Spurs academy do not have any striker ? Or wingers ?
He needs to man up to occasion and take unblameable risk.
Football in europe has improved and evolved.
