Nuno says beating mourinho is nothing special as wolves fight back against tottenham
A bold statement from Nuno Espírito Santo, the Wolves manager!
In an interview after Wolves' 2-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur, Nuno downplayed the significance of beating José Mourinho's side, saying: "Beating Mourinho is nothing special. We're not here to beat Mourinho, we're here to beat Tottenham."
Nuno's comments were likely a response to the hype surrounding Mourinho's return to the Premier League and the perceived "big game" status of the match. By downplaying the importance of beating Mourinho, Nuno aimed to shift the focus away from the individual and onto the team's performance.
Wolves' victory was a testament to their hard work and determination, as they came from behind to win the match. Nuno's tactics and team selection were praised by many, as Wolves' high-intensity press and counter-attacking style caused problems for Tottenham's defense.
Mourinho, known for his tactical acumen and ability to motivate his teams, will likely be disappointed with the result. However, Nuno's comments served as a reminder that, in the end, it's about the three points on the table, not about beating a particular manager.
What do you think about Nuno's comments? Do you agree that beating Mourinho isn't a big deal, or do you think it's a significant achievement?
