Spurs fans have been reacting to a post showing Jose Mourinho’s stats from his first few months in charge at the North London club.
LastWordonSpurs posted the stats on Twitter and asked fans to share their thoughts and feelings on the 57-year-old’s start as manager of the Lilywhites. It shows that the Portuguese manager has won 11 of his first 21 games in charge, with four draws and six losses, including the 1-0 defeat to RB Leipzig on Wednesday night.
In his time in charge, Mourinho has helped Spurs through to the knockout stages of the Champions League, progressed to the fifth round of the FA Cup and ensured that the North London club still have a realistic chance of finishing in the top four. However, the recent defeat to Leipzig has seemingly left some fans disillusioned with his management.
Who would you rather have in charge right now?
Mauricio Pochettino
Jose Mourinho

These Spurs fans are seemingly fed up with Mourinho despite the 57-year-old having been there for less than four months, having replaced Mauricio Pochettino in November of last year.
What do we think?
It may be a bit premature of these fans to suggest that Mourinho has already failed as Spurs boss, next season will perhaps be a real test of how well he can work at the North London club. Injuries to Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son have clearly hampered the former Chelsea and Manchester United boss, as evidenced by the result in the Champions League, so perhaps we should judge him more when he has a fully fit squad available to him.
