Tottenham Manager Jose Mourinho shared his thoughts after the friendly match with Norwich (1: 2).

The Londoners played at their home stadium with empty stands.

«Good workout. We needed game practice. We had to feel what it was like to play without our fans. The best way is to practice with another team in the Premier League.

We need to adapt to the new reality, which we tried to do when we felt the game without an audience. We need to fight for points, with or without the fans.

Points are earned on the pitch, and we will have to fight for them against Manchester United, ” said Mourinho.

Ilya Gerkus: “Mourinho wanted Dzyuba to Tottenham, I know for sure»

Former CEO of Lokomotiv Ilya gerkus commented on the information that Tottenham were interested in Zenit forward Artem Dzyuba.

• Dzyuba and Europe. There were rumors about Tottenham.

– I know it’s not nonsense. I know his agent – the man who did it. I know that Mourinho wanted it. And I know it for sure.

Mourinho knows who Dzyuba is. He worked out the world Cup in Russia as a commentator for Russia Today and discussed the Russian national team, among other things. I think he knows the Russian national team very well.

– What did Mourinho think about Dzyuba?

– I know he wanted it. I do not know the details and what exactly he said, but this option was, it’s true.

– Why do you think he is in Mourinho‘s team?

• Score goals, win games. Dzyuba would have scored 10 goals for the season, everyone would have been happy.

– What went wrong?”

– It was necessary “to Zenith”. Zenit wants to win titles. The club has one star, but they want two. How about without Juba? No way. I would also doubt – we need such a player ourselves – ” said Herkus.
