Jose Mourinho hailed his Centurions and then told the doubters: Not bad for a defensive, negative side.
Clinical Tottenham thrashed Crystal Palace 4-1 with two goals from Harry Kane and Gareth Bale.
Mourinho, 58, is often irked by the reputation that he is not an attack-minded coach.
Yet he possesses one of the best striking units in world football as they became the second team after Bayern Munich in Europe’s top-five leagues to notch 100 goals this campaign.
Spurs boss Mourinho said: “I was happy with the attitude, the feeling and naughty smile of scoring 100 goals in the season – and we’re a defensive team.
“The stat I was given is not bad for a very defensive team, for a very negative team.
