“It will be a huge boost to the team’s winning mentality and I doubt they will have to wait another 13 years to lift another trophy. Clearly, the Spurs are going places. “
Berbatov cautioned, however, that Spurs should stay calm and not go ahead after reaching the final, adding: “It’s great to see the Spurs in a final, and I bet everyone is happy.
“But I see teams celebrating reaching the final as if they had won it, even though there is still one last step to take before lifting the trophy.
“Nobody remembers who finished runner-up. The Spurs need to be calm and focused, they are in a final, but that is a couple of months away. Mourinho has been here many times, he knows what it takes to prepare his team for a final ”. . “
