sport">“This evening will make my choices very easy in the future,” said Mourinho after the defeat in the Bosuil Stadium (1-0).
sport">Mourinho changed no fewer than four players at half-time: Steven Bergwijn, Dele Alli, Giovani Lo Celso and Carlos Vinicius. “I would rather have changed eleven times”, grumbled the Portuguese, who brought Son Heung-min and Lucas Moura into the field, among others. After barely an hour, Harry Kane also joined the team for Gareth Bale.
sport">“I always want to give my players opportunities. We have a large selection with many good players ”, said Mourinho. “It is my responsibility to give them opportunities, but it is also their responsibility to seize those opportunities with both hands. We played terribly badly and the result is also bad. I’m the boss, so I’m responsible for this. But this match also made a few things clear to me. It is now a lot easier to make certain choices. ”
sport">Bergwijn, who came over from PSV at the beginning of this year, played in four games this season in the Premier League. He was a substitute three times. The Orange international knows after the defeat at Antwerp that he does not have to count on a basic place for the time being. Spurs lost in Belgium by a goal after half an hour to Lior Refaelov.
