Tottenham: Mourinho defends Bale as struggles continue

Tottenham and Chelsea are gearing up for their 58th meeting of the Premier League era. The sides played out a goalless draw at Stamford Bridge in November but Chelsea won this fixture 2-0 last season. Spurs head into this one following a 1-0 loss at Brighton, while the Blues beat Burnley 2-0 to give new boss Thomas Tuchel his first win.

What has been said?

Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho: “The guys are men and men have feelings, in spite of being top professionals.

“I think football is a sport full of examples of teams and players individually that sometimes they are in an incredible moment of confidence and in other periods they are suffering with self-esteem. A bad result, a bad performance you see that in individuals.

“You see the striker that is five, 10, 15 games without scoring and he looks like he is not a top player and he is.

“You see the centre-back making incredible mistakes and you think he is an awful player and he’s not, and you see good teams that look bad teams and vice-versa. It’s just that it’s human feelings.

“As a coach I always fight against that. I always say that in my personal case, a victory doesn’t put me in paradise and a defeat doesn’t put me in hell and I try to pass that to all of the players but the reality is the beginning of the game was very important to start well and we didn’t.”

Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel on Timo Werner: “He’s totally into it, he gives everything, but every striker is sensitive, and nothing helps them more than goals.

“If they miss goals for a certain amount of time it’s the same for all of them. So this is nothing special for Timo, it happens to every striker in the world.

“As long as he has the impact and tries everything, like he did today, we will support him. We also missed some chances to use him in counter-attacks, which is his strength to use him with his speed.

“So we have to use him in the right way also. I think he was confident to play, but confidence is not something you can demand.”
