Supporters of Tottenham Hotspur have been reacting to a video in which the club’s manager Jose Mourinho explains why he shaved his head.
In the footage shared by @HotspurRelated, from an interview conducted by Sky Sports, the Portuguese manager explained that he woke up with his hair in such a mess that he told his barber to “please bring the [grade] one” shaver, which had some fans in stitches.

One fan even suggested it was trolling Pep Guardiola, which could relate to them both having bald heads.
Masterclass Pep trolling.

Do you like Jose Mourinho's new haircut?Yes, it actually quite suits himNo, I couldn't really care less |
Since the former Real Madrid manager’s arrival in North London, he has a fairly solid 1.79 points-per-game ratio over the 19 matches which he has overseen (as per Transfermarkt).
With many fans in stitches over their gaffer’s new trim, many felt that he had begun to take on the form of another of Spurs’ hierarchy, Daniel Levy.
Wants to match Daniel Levy

What do we think?
It seems strange really that ‘man gets a haircut’ has now become breaking and relevant news for some reason.
No matter who it is getting the haircut, it must have been a slow news day for this one to have received so much attention, with many Spurs fans giving this the tongue-in-cheek response that it deserves.
