Ferdinand Feels Sorry For Mourinho Amid Spurs Poor Form

Ferdinand Feels Sorry For Mourinho Amid Spurs Poor Form

Former England defender Rio Ferdinand has insisted he feels sorry for Jose Mourinho due to Tottenham Hotspur’s poor run of form.

Tottenham are currently enduring a torrid time and Ferdinand believes the North Londoners are getting undone by their own mistakes.

Mourinho’s men have won just one in their last five games in all competitions, but Ferdinand believes the Portuguese coach always get his tactics right but defensive mistakes are to blame for many of their defeats.

In the wake of Tottenham’s recent loss in the FA Cup against Everton, the Manchester United legend explained the reasoning behind Mourinho’s situation.

“I have to say I actually feel sorry for him [Mourinho] in some ways,” Ferdinand told BT Sport.

“Because in recent weeks he’s changed quite a few times in the way they’ve approached games.

“The West Brom game was a bit different when Harry Kane wasn’t playing, and against Everton was open and expansive.

“But each and every one of those times recently they’ve been undone by individual moments, individual errors.

“As a manager, you can prepare all you like all week for each game but these individual errors are killing him.

“In that sense I feel sorry for him because sometimes it just derails his whole plan that he’s worked on all week.

“I think it’s a quality thing, yeah. I think there’s too many players consistently making mistakes and it’s leaving them open and they’re having to chase games some of the time.

“Until they get that right and eradicate those types of mistakes they can never really consider themselves a team that’s going to challenge consistently because mistakes lead to goals, which then means you chase and leaves you open, it’s problems consistently.”
