The Tottenham manager talked of the benefits of his new approach and why he expects Liverpool to soon find their form
José Mourinho made the point that he could speak only about himself and his own behaviour on the touchline rather than that of Jürgen Klopp, with whom he clashes on Thursday night at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The way the Spurs manager tells it, he is glad to have calmed down, to have “felt an evolution on the emotional control”. It is fair to say Klopp has yet to undergo the conversion; he remains an energetic and sometimes volcanic presence. Mourinho called him out for it last month, after Spurs’ 2-1 defeat at Anfield, claiming Liverpool’s manager had gone beyond the bounds of acceptable exuberance.
