Jose Mourinho: “The best thing I take from the game” against Chelsea

Spurs boss Jose Mourinho has identified the positive thing he got from the match against Chelsea.

Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur extended their lengthy unbeaten runs with a goalless draw at Stamford Bridge.

The visitors earned point at Stamford Bridge to return to summit of Premier League. But the Spurs players are not happy with the result.

According to Mourinho, the fact that “my dressing room is not happy – that’s the best thing I take from the game”, which he claims to be a change of mentality on the part of his team.

Timo Werner looked to have opened the scoring on 11 minutes, but the striker was adjudged to have been offside upon receiving the pass from Mason Mount.

Four minutes later Serge Aurier tested Chelsea’s Edouard Mendy with a low shot from outside the penalty area.

In a tactical affair Mount almost broke the deadlock 10 minutes from time when forcing Hugo Lloris into action from range.

Olivier Giroud might have stolen all three points late on but he was unable to capitalise on a loose touch from Joe Rodon, making his first top-flight start, when his attempted lob was directed straight at Lloris.

Spurs’ ninth consecutive unbeaten match takes them top of the table on goal difference with 21 points from 10 matches.

After the match, Mourinho said: “The one thing that I take from the game is that a draw in here, normally is a positive result.

“To stay top of the league with that result is also a positive thing, and my dressing room is not happy.

“That’s the best thing that I take from the game, we are not happy, and that for me is fantastic.

“It’s a complete change of mentality, a complete change of personality.

“You can tell us we didn’t have many chances and I agree, but how many did they have?

“And that’s the thing that makes me really really happy, we are not happy with a draw at Stamford Bridge.”
