“I thought and continue to believe that these 11 months without work were not a waste of time. It was a period to think, do analysis and prepare. You never lose your DNA and personality. You are who you are, and this applies to both good and bad things. I realize that I made mistakes in the past, but I will not make them anymore. I will make new mistakes, ”Mourinho quoted Sky Sports as saying.
He noted that he was completely ready to start work and did not experience any problems with motivation.
“I think the players felt this in two days and see that I am ready to support them,” the specialist added.
Mourinho was appointed head coach of Tottenham on November 20, the day after the dismissal of the Argentinean Mauricio Pochettino. The Portuguese has been unemployed since December 2018, when he was fired from Manchester United.
It was previously reported that Tottenham Hotspur will not give Mourinho money for winter transfers.
