Tottenham picked up yet another win the Premier League this time beating AFC Bournemouth and immediately after the match Jose Mourinho chose to speak about Chelsea.
The Lilywhites seem to have found their rhythm back under their new manager and right now even the out of form players seem to be returning back into the fold.
The likes of Dele Alli and Son have been playing exceptionally well during the last few matches and right now everyone’s waiting for Spurs’ next big test which will be against Manchester United next week.
But surprisingly, Jose Mourinho chose not to talk about the club which sacked him last December but instead spent a fair amount of time discussing the Chelsea game which is scheduled to take place in the 22nd of this month.
“We play Chelsea at the end of December, if the game was tomorrow, we would play them with six points difference, it would be a fantastic situation to play them,” Mourinho said on Saturday.
“But we play them in the end of December. We have to keep close, as close as possible. But we have a lot to work and a lot to improve.
“When I arrived we were 12 points behind the last Champions League position and I didn’t want to think about it, I just wanted to play matches.
“I think we were eight or nine from a Europa League position and I said if we thought about it too much we would be depressed because we want to play European football next season.
“So, don’t get depressed, play game after game and see what is going to happen.
“Now the distance is smaller, we won two matches, we are going into a period with lots of matches, the Christmas period is match, match, match, match.
“So you have the chance of both. You have the chance to break down, we have the chance to put pressure on the opponent.”
While the North London picked up a win vs the Cherries, Chelsea, on the other hand, suffered a rather shock loss at the hands of West Ham United at Stamford Bridge.
