Chelsea coach, Frank Lampard has come out to defend Jose Mourinho ahead of the top of the table with Tottenham on Sunday.
Lampard recently revealed that Jose remains a top manager despite a difficult end of his second spell with Chelsea and problems during his time at Manchester United.
According to him, Mourinho’s records as a coach are amazing and he is surely one of the most talented managers to play the game.
He added that the match vs Spurs will be special because of where both teams are on the table.
His words, “Of course he is [still a top manager],”
“You don’t have a record as decorated as Jose Mourinho has a manager without being a very talented coach.
“For all of us, the game is so reactionary at the moment and particularly in the modern era with social media reactions form will always be judged very harshly for any manager. Tottenham are in good form. They are on a good run; they have good players, they have a good manager.
“It will be a very difficult game for us. I played in the fixture many a time, and the fact we’re in good form towards the top of the table adds spice, we’re in positions we want to be in and we’re all fighting for those.
“So it’s a game that remains special for those reasons, and the league positions, of course, all eyes will be drawn to it.”
