Jamie Redknapp slams Jose Mourinho after Tottenham Hotspur defeat

Former Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Jamie Redknapp has criticised Jose Mourinho following Spurs' defeat against Manchester United.

Tottenham took the lead through Son Heung-min during Sunday's clash in North London, only to then concede three second-half goals as Fred, Edinson Cavani and Mason Greenwood sealed a 3-1 triumph for the Red Devils.

The result damaged Tottenham's hopes of a Champions League finish, with the club currently six points behind fourth-placed West Ham United, having already been eliminated from the Europa League.

Redknapp, who made 48 appearances for Tottenham, criticised Mourinho on Sky Sports News: "Jose is looking at it and trying to blame everybody else, he has to take responsibility. When you're a good manager, you organise your team to get that result whatever it takes. A great manager would find a way to get them organised.

"What Jose has also done in this period is he's made them a really tough watch. Too often I watch this side and there's no flair or excitement. I don't think this is a bad squad of players, I've said it before and I stand by it."

Tottenham face Everton and Southampton in their next two Premier League outings, before playing Manchester City in the EFL Cup final on Sunday, April 25.
