There are a few qualities that, without them, you just can’t win.
The one that takes more time to develop is the psychological profile,
that collective state of mind.
I think that is something that they really need to improve.
OK.
Let’s move to the next game.
By the defensive point of view,
we want to keep the same principles,
but we need to do it 20 metres more in front.
Everybody, strikers, midfielders, defensive line bring it up.
They are very defensive so difficult match... difficult match.
So, eight matches to play.
If for some reason, we don’t manage to get that fifth position,
which I think we can, there is still the position
of Europa League. If we play Europa League,
maybe we win it, maybe it’s better than not to play so...
We still have fights in there.
Fifth is there and for the sixth is there.
Here we go.
A new era begins for Tottenham Hotspur.
The most important thing...
Courage.
Honesty.
Family.
Listen to Tottenham Hotspur's Stadium now.
Let’s go together, boys. Come on!
OK, let’s go! Balls there.
In two days time, Tottenham Hotspur will face West Ham in a London derby.
The two sides last met in José Mourinho’s first game as Head Coach.
I can feel little differences,
it’s a process, I say that we are changing.
It’s a process that takes time.
I push them for... for this sense of responsibility.
Responsibility to the fans, to the club.
It’s something very, very important. I think it’s...
it's part of a certain package that makes a team more or less competitive.
Spurs have eight matches remaining this season.
They currently sit in eighth, four points off fifth position,
which could be enough to secure Champions League football
if Manchester City’s ban remains in place.
I think this is a desperately important game.
Spurs are winless in seven games.
I still think fifth is certainly feasible.
We need to win this game tonight.
London derby lads, alright?
Come on, come on, boys!
A derby in the capital is up and running.
Just cut out by Soucek.
Take the ball, Gio.
It’s too flat this shit.
Bowen...
Electric play brings Fredericks into it.
Fornals is in the middle, Antonio’s round the back post...
Come on, Eric!
Lo Celso retrieves it.
Good ball... Son in a really good area...
And Heung-min Son has fired Spurs ahead.
But I do not think this will stand, it looks like Son is offside.
And it is not a goal.
Half time.
OK, let's go.
If any one of you
feels a little bit of fatigue,
you had three days to rest, they have two days to rest.
I don’t think it's fatigue, I don’t think it is.
If you need a little bit of pressure to be better,
I give you an honest little bit of pressure.
I think if we don’t win the game, it’s over.
It’s over.
Forget fourth, forget fifth,
it’s over.
Our ambitions today, they can finish.
And then we are going to have one more month
with seven more matches to, uh, to... to play with a shit feeling.
You have to give more.
I can tell you one thousand details where you have to give more.
Our biggest problem is one...
missing shit passes.
Fucking sloppy, fucking slow, pass back when the pass should be in front.
It's sloppy.
The second thing is about intensity.
It’s about your responsibility or your own motivation.
The game, I told this before we start playing the first game,
I told you, you only have the feeling that the game was important in the end,
and in the end of the game you are going to be here.
It’s not after the game, it’s during the game.
It’s during the game. The game is important, fuck!
Hey!
-Come on then lads, hey! -Fucking hell!
Wake up hey, come on! Push!
Come on then, let's go!
We're back up and running in North London.
It’s into Dier, stepping forward here,
Eric Dier into a good area.
Push!
To Dele Alli...
Kane fires for goal!
Come on, come on Sonny, come on Sonny!
Son, one of the quickest players on the pitch, moves it out to Lo Celso.
Kane is there... Kane is in...
And Kane has fired wide.
Aurier hangs it in.
And Balbuena nodding it behind for a corner.
Oh, and it’s scrambled in.
Tottenham Hotspur have the lead,
flicking off a West Ham player.
Spurs looking to move on here and Kane is onside,
the flag has stayed down for Harry Kane to make it two-nil.
An outstandingly cool finish
from Harry Kane in his 200th Premier League appearance for Spurs.
And it wrapped up a big win for Tottenham Hotspur.
Come on boys!
Sorry to ask you about a player who didn’t play,
especially after you’ve just come away with a victory,
but I noticed Tanguy Ndombele
didn’t warm up at all tonight during the match.
Has Tanguy been okay with you not getting any minutes?
I cannot start a game with 12 or 13 players.
I try to do the best for the team.
Uh... You know,
sometimes I apologise to my players that are not my first choice,
but I have to do my job the best I... the best I can.
-Right guys, thank you very much. -Thank you.
At a reported 60 million euros,
Tanguy Ndombele is the most expensive player in Tottenham’s history.
The fee is huge, it’s a mega signing.
It is a statement of intent from the Board.
The 23-year-old Frenchman made an impressive start at the club,
scoring on his debut.
Tanguy Ndombele, what an impact!
But since then, Tanguy has struggled with injuries
and has failed to establish a regular first team place.
Other members of the squad have been helping him adapt to life in London.
He has built a bond with fellow French international, Moussa Sissoko.
My relationship with Tanguy is, he is like my little brother
and uh, I try to help him.
When you’re a player you want to play every game,
try to enjoy, try to do your job.
So when you are not being picking in the team
but just only training you can feel something is missing
and, uh, it’s very painful.
I can understand because I've been in that situation
and I know it's... it's not a good feeling
so even when you go back home you are still thinking about it.
Moussa, the barman.
They’re good, aren’t they?
I like the sauce, it’s a bit spicy.
It’s kind of like beignets.
When they’re warm I like it, but when they’re cold and you reheat them,
it’s not the same eh, It’s another sensation.
And ‘Riz couché.’
‘Riz couché,’ that’s the thing, rice that has slept.
Your first season, how's it been?
What can I say?
It’s been complicated, I was injured a lot.
It’s been a season of adaptation.
But it’s been OK, you guys have been there to help me.
Why did you think it was difficult to settle in?
It’s complicated when you change country.
I left France,
and I left my family to come here.
Then it’s not easy when you change environment.
The training, it's a change in intensity, and even the matches.
You have to adapt to a new life,
and it hasn’t been easy so far but that’s how it is.
You know in the squad we are twenty, twenty five players, so,
so, of course, everyone cannot be on the pitch every time but you need to...
to stay focused, try to do your job and try to improve every day,
so that’s what I’ve tried to do and...
I was patient even if sometime was hard,
and step by step I could make my place in the starting eleven, so...
'Cause you know it’s easy to give up when it’s tough,
not even in football but in the life.
The life is experience, no?
The best way to work, when you are happy with what you give,
uh, everyday in the training,
you know, yeah, you need to wait the right moment.
When the manager is making some choice and... we need to accept that
even if sometime it’s painful.
But Tanguy will bring us to the Champions League next year.
Yeah, we believe on him.
Why did you want to become a footballer?
Because, uh, I love football.
After speaking with José,
chairman Daniel Levy calls a meeting with his record signing
to discuss his lack of playing time.
I always say to people when it comes to transfers
you're dealing with human beings, they're in a different club,
a different culture and there's absolutely no guarantee
that they’ll work in this club.
We need a little bit of luck, some good judgement and a lot of hard work.
Ah voila, it’s here my friend. Here it is.
He’s asked player liaison officer Roberto Balbontin to join them.
He’s coming. He’ll be here in two minutes.
Roberto speaks four languages,
and specialises in helping players settle at the club.
For Tanguy, it’s been a difficult transition for him.
-Hey, Daniel. -Hi.
Normally, it takes about six months to eight months for someone to settle in
but everybody is different.
OK, so...
tell me, give me the story of what’s... what’s not working.
What doesn’t work for you here with us?
For three months I trained hard.
Everybody says I trained really well,
but if I don’t play it means there must be something else.
Many players, in their first season coming from overseas,
found it difficult and it is normal.
The experiences that you’ve had are normal.
Moussa, obviously, he knows Moussa well, he came to Tottenham
and was very disappointing in the early period
and I said to him, "I know you are a better player than you are showing
but you have to decide where... what’s in your head."
The nice thing about Moussa, Moussa is an absolute fighter.
He was not prepared to leave the club.
I’m not concentrating as I should be.
I am not 100%.
When I was at school, when I was 16, OK?
My... at a parents' evening,
um, my headteacher told my parents
I should leave school.
The next day, I said to myself, "I am not going to be beaten."
and from that moment onwards,
I got "A"s in my exams and I went to university.
I am a fighter.
I’m a fighter, I’ve always fought.
I'm here today because I fought.
I have never given up in football or in life.
We the club, and the manager,
we both believe he has the talent.
He has to unlock it, only he can turn that around.
Like he said, Tanguy, it’s for you to overcome this thing.
It’s all learning because he’s come from a system in France
where he knew everything.
You can’t expect people to just kind of like plonk them in somewhere and go,
"Go on you’ve got all the tools, get on with it."
It doesn’t work like that.
The first year is very complicated, my friend.
Put a line under it. This is the future, that is the past
and look ahead.
OK alright, thank you.
I think having someone like Moussa,
he's one of the kindest players I work with,
Moussa went from derided by fans, to one of the top players at the club.
Tanguy is on that process and he’ll get there, it just takes time.
Finish, finish!
Next up for Tottenham, is a difficult away fixture at Sheffield United.
Tomorrow is the first anniversary since the signing of Tanguy Ndombele,
I think it’s fair to say the move probably hasn’t yet worked out.
What needs to happen and what does he have to do?
Just give us an insight into his mentality and, in other words, is he self critical?
That’s not a question for me, that’s a question for him.
Nothing happens when the players have no talent.
When you have talent, lots of things can... can change
and lots of things can... can happen.
Going into the match, just one point separates the two sides.
It’s a must win game if Spurs are to keep pace
with the other Champions League contenders.
Sheffield United one, Tottenham Hotspur nil.
Let's go, come on, come on!!
Spurs looking to respond swiftly.
Lucas Moura breaking through the middle of the pitch,
I think he was caught there. Spurs will play on...
through Harry Kane.
Oh, it’s majestic from Kane,
with others looking at the referee and scrambling to get back defensively.
Well, they are checking this for hand ball,
that would be exceptionally harsh you feel.
Has this been ruled out?
Looks like it has, they’re saying this has hit the arm of Lucas Moura.
Goal disallowed, it stays one-nil.
You can see the disbelief from the Tottenham players,
how can that not be given?
It is very, very harsh.
Liven up, boys! Come on!
You are more intense in the fucking training session than in here.
OK, was a goal. OK, it’s a disgrace.
OK, it’s a fucking big disgrace that this is not a goal,
but the reality is the game is there.
Spurs need a massive second half here.
So we are losing one-zero and we have to defend,
if we lose concentration, if we don’t defend
they score a second goal.
Fucking hell!
Dele Alli and Tanguy Ndombele are being prepared.
It is always going to be a big talking point
when your record signing isn’t playing matches.
And obviously Daniel Levy is going to be saying to him,
"Sixty-five million quid, José, you know, get a tune out of him."
Ndombele, nicely done.
Lamela...
can hang it round the back for Son, who does cut it back successfully
and Harry Kane has got his goal.
Harry Kane’s injury time goal provides Spurs with little consolation.
And the game is over.
This defeat puts a massive dent in their Champions League hopes.
-Tough night, José? -Yeah.
To be honest, I think it would be very, very easy
to just speak about Michael Oliver decision,
but that goal disallowed cannot kill us.
We had enough time to psychologically react as a team in a different way,
and don’t die with that decision,
and that's the thing I blame ourselves
because we have to be much, much mentally stronger
to cope with situations like this.
The game was really bad. The attitude was really bad, it’s true.
They have to give an answer.
Every day I learn more about my players,
what they are winning a match, what they are losing a match,
what they are after a defeat.
I am very demanding
and, uh...
I try to push players to... to their limits
and I like to feed that internal competition.
Three days after the defeat against Sheffield United,
José decides that he wants to see his players
in an eleven-a-side match against each other.
OK, ready! Go, go, go!
Yes! Push, push!
Go over! Go over, Serge!
Come on!
Hey! Hey, it's a foul!
You don’t win football matches with nice guys
and you have to go to the competition with that spirit.
You, OK?
I think step by step he tried to make us understand
the way he wants us to play.
I think his philosophy is to play football with aggressiveness,
to see your players giving everything on the pitch,
it’s more important than anything else.
A hard tackle by Eric Dier, leaves Heung-min Son needing treatment.
And as play continues, more tension breaks out within the squad.
You speak a lot, every day you speak a lot,
you speak a lot every day, every day you speak a lot, every day...
OK! Stop!
Sonny’s just gone down.
-What do you mean conked out? -No, he's just been knocked down, now.
-He's set this up though, ain’t he? -Who, the gaffer?
Yeah.
A little bit of nastiness in them for tomorrow?
Yeah.
Sonny, is the pain very bad?
Can you feel me touching your heel OK?
Wiggle your toes, wiggle the toes first.
It’s not in muscle... it’s in the sh...
Yeah, it’s the shin, but it’s down the side of the bone
but also you can see the bruising coming up in the soft tissue underneath there.
To develop a team, to develop a style of play,
to develop even a mentality,
we need to use the difficult moments
to push each other, to blame each other, to have confrontation.
It happen, can happen and I like it to happen.
Feeling OK?
-Why? -I'm sorry, hey. I'm sorry.
I don't get it.
Imagine, I broke my shin.
One thing is an injury, another thing is pain.
That’s why we have painkillers.
Sonny, take a picture, put in Instagram
and say, "This was in the training centre."
So angry, I swear.
Facing Tottenham next is a resurgent Everton side.
How nervous, excited are you for this game?
We haven’t got the mentality, we haven’t got winning mentality.
This is a man that’s a winner,
wherever he’s been, he's managed to instill a winning mentality.
Is that not possible, with this group of players he’s got?
Here’s Son...
Son...
No way through.
After the Sheffield United game, he's probably sat them down and said,
"Come on guys we really need, not only to be better than this,
but we also need to show a bit of fight and a bit of passion
and a bit of aggression
because we are a soft touch."
Winksy, determination, yeah.
Kane...
Lo Celso on the turn...
And it's ended up in the back of the net.
Lucas, with a loose ball over Son's head.
Son isn't tracking back.
Richarlison has a pop...
A massive let off.
Hugo Lloris was left very exposed there.
And it looks like he is taking his frustrations out on Heung-min Son
and the discussions are continuing into the tunnel.
It’s fine, it’s fine, it’s fine.
Hey! Fucking hell!
It’s the same for you, it’s the same for Harry,
it’s the same for Lucas, make the run! One minute to go!
One minute to go and it nearly cost us a goal.
What should we do? What do you want me to do?
It's fine, it's fine.
Because you say all this!
Make the run, make the run, make the run for the team!
OK.
Very, very quick.
What happened in here,
I don’t know the whole of the story, I know that he wants you to come back,
I know he wants you to come back even though...
but if you are a kid,
if you are a spoilt guy,
it's very bad.
If you take it in the right way, you become stronger.
Probably this would be something that wouldn’t happen
one month ago, two months ago, one year ago, two years ago.
It happened because now you demand more from... from each other,
you feel more the responsibility, where you have to give more.
We cannot concede a goal in the last minute of the first half
and we cannot concede a goal in the last minute of the second half,
so if you take it in a positive way, for me, it’s perfect.
For me, it’s perfect.
Come on, hey. Let’s go!
Lo Celso once again has won the ball well.
There’s some big challenges in there.
Wasn’t the prettiest, probably, someone would say it was ugly,
but there was plenty of fight in there, quite literally.
Big win for Spurs, it was all about the three points today and Spurs get it.
When you are in the action, you know, sometimes it’s difficult to manage
your emotions so that something that make me a bit out of control
but the best way is to shake the hand and to move on.
Uh, most of the time, the craziest guy on the pitch,
they are teddy bears on the life.
In moments like this, we have just to win.
First three points, we are alive.
We are alive!
I'm not a guy who like to fight or shout back.
Uh...
Of course, Hugo, I respect him so much as a captain, as a player, as a human.
If I am on the pitch, I will do everything if it’s possible,
I am the guy who wants work and who wants win everything.
And this is happen in football, we are like more than family
so we spend time I think, almost, with me, with Hugo,
almost now six years, five years and I think it’s normal.
I don’t think we've ever gone on the pitch not wanting to win but sometimes,
you have to take pride in winning scrappy games, ugly games,
you’re never going to always out-play the opposition.
You’re never always gonna just, like, win by playing pretty football.
When you’ve got eleven people pulling in that same direction,
then it’s about the fight more than anything.
José, he gave us a little bit of a wake up call so I think it was very important.
All he wants us to be is winners and I think that’s what we want to be
going... going forward.
Spurs follow a clean sheet against Everton,
with another one against Bournemouth.
It’s all over here goalless at the Vitality stadium.
But this time they fail to score, taking just a point from the game.
They are now in ninth place,
and are unlikely to qualify for the Champions League.
But there is still a chance they could qualify for the Europa League.
-Hey, José. -Let's go, Matt.
The fans are pretty frustrated and angry about the season,
um, they’re just angry about the fact that a team and a club
that was in the Champions League final now sits in... in ninth position
in the Premier League table.
Can you give them any encouragement or optimism
that this is just a one-off bad season?
I think the message is very, very simple, which is...
supporters are not happy, nobody in this club is happy.
I think that after Champions League final,
I think was very, very difficult for them to digest.
Was very, very difficult to... to...
to believe that the next day, the sun would be shining again.
And from that moment, I think the direction was...
was very, very difficult.
Then the accumulation of injuries in a crucial part of the...
of the season too.
Also the situation of a very important player like Christian
refusing to sign a new contract.
Big clubs, they have moments of transition.
They have moments of replacing players. They have moments of... of losing players.
The thing that keeps me strong and optimistic and
200% loyal to the club and to the... to the project
is to know that the club wants to improve.
You know how important it is to win a derby match
and obviously in this part of London, for Spurs to finish above Arsenal
as they have in the last few years.
We are fighting for the only thing that we can fight for.
One point distance, four matches to go,
in the top of that, there is... there is a rivalry
because in the end the club is... is made by and for the fans.
And the fans, they have a special feeling for this match
so the people that is on the pitch has to fight for them.
Tottenham’s next match is arguably their biggest of the season.
They face their oldest rivals, Arsenal.
When there’s two teams who are literally right on the doorstep to each other,
obviously there’s gonna be a rivalry and it’s that fight for North London
and it’s an important game for the club, for the players
but for the fans, it’s just that extra special.
Both teams love to beat each other.
Every week you want to win, but yeah, you know what it means,
it’s always got a special edge to it.
Out of the remaining fixtures,
this is the one where the fans are really looking forward to.
This is the one that means the most to them.
The rivalry between Spurs and Arsenal began over a hundred years ago.
In 1913, Arsenal moved from South London to Highbury.
Just four miles from Tottenham.
Arsenal were then awarded a place in the first division,
at the expense of Spurs, who were relegated to make way.
For 22 years, Arsenal had dominated Tottenham in the league.
Towards Kane, there’s the header! Harry Kane...
But recently, Spurs have been coming out on top.
And have finished above them for the past three seasons.
Goes for it... Oh yes!
Oh yes, Harry Kane!
That is absolutely sensational.
I don’t know if you have the same opinion as I have.
We have all different experiences
in our careers of derbies and matches like this.
Most important thing is the way you understand the game,
the way you feel the game, what you are ready to do
individually, collectively.
In terms of the table, of course, you know what it means,
is a opportunity to play Europa League is to win
the four matches that we... that we have.
But independent of that,
what the game means for...
for the club, for the fans, for everybody.
The team that win is not the team with more quality,
it’s not the best team, it’s not the team
that is in a better position in... in the table.
It’s the team that feels the game more than the other.
And we have to fight, fight... Come on.
It’s always a massive fixture. The biggest one on the calendar.
It is North London derby, it’s the one that we all want to win.
So fingers crossed that they sort of come out and play.
Eric Dier’s been banned for four games.
So Dier won’t be there.
I think he’s a big miss because he’s the nearest thing
we’ve got to someone who’s gonna clench his fists and shout and really dig in.
It’s North London derby day.
Spurs face Arsenal at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
for the very first time.
One point between them in the fight for Europe.
For José Mourinho and Mikel Arteta, this is a first North London derby
in the dugouts.
It doesn’t matter about the league or anything like that,
really we just want to beat them, we just want to finish above them.
This game’s the one we’re all waiting for. This is the one we’ve got to win.
This is a game where the only thing to play for now is pride.
If we win today, all if forgiven.
That's for sure, if we win today, I don’t care what happens.
We just need to win today.
The stands are empty,
fans can only watch and cheer from their homes.
As Lucas Moura has a pop at goal inside the opening seconds.
Go Sonny!
Son, supporting Harry Kane as a second striker.
He gets in a bit of trouble. Lacazette will drive it...
It’s an unbelievably good goal from Alexandre Lacazette.
And Arsenal have the lead in the North London derby.
Luiz, he’s under pressure!
Oh, he’s lost it and Son has nicked in...
for what will be the equaliser.
Brilliant work from Heung-min Son.
Spurs get level almost immediately.
Ben Davies...
decides to thump it at goal and it’s rattled into the bar.
And there will be a card for Serge Aurier.
Three Spurs players on cautions now.
Half time. It's Tottenham Hotspur one, Arsenal one.
-Boys, this is there for us. -Come on, come on, come on.
Stay, read the game. Feel the right moment to go.
But when you go, you go.
We need to force the run.
We need to force more the run.
OK, OK, the ball come here. Sonny gets the second ball,
plays to Lucas and then is when we have to be more aggressive.
And, and, really go for the shot, really go for the action.
Attack the space, force the mistake.
And when I say attack the space, you attack the space,
the second guy needs to be close.
Every time we pass a ball back,
every time they push, not a lot, but they always push.
We have to defend with all of our focus.
But the game is there to win.
Come on, lads. Come on.
Come on boys, we go for win, huh? We go for win, huh?
Come on, come on.
-Come on, Spurs! -Come on!
Lo Celso will spring into life here as he loves to do.
And that’s a great ball, great work from him to find Lucas Moura.
Pitch has been opened up here by Lo Celso.
Lucas Moura driving for Mustafi...
Ceballos...
back heels to Pepe, that bamboozled Spurs a little bit.
Pepe...
OK, OK, come on, Sonny!
Kane...
muscles his way beyond Mustafi. Can he stab it in to Son?
No! How?
Martínez makes a save, Kane is down.
Into the final ten minutes.
Here's Lucas Moura, sees the run of Kane.
Fantastic ball and Martínez was sharp off his line.
Oh, the header's into the net!
And Spurs have taken the lead!
Toby Alderweireld is the man celebrating
into the final ten minutes of the game!
And it’s a late, late goal in the North London derby.
Toby Alderweireld was there to guide it into the corner brilliantly.
It's over.
Spurs win the first North London derby at the new stadium
and it’s a massive three points in the fight for European football.
Tottenham Hotspur two, Arsenal one.
-Woo! Yes! -Come on!
Yes!
Come on you Spurs!
Yes, yes, yes!
Bravo!
It’s all smiles in North London and there are more reasons to be cheerful.
As Spurs defender, and Tottenham local, Japhet Tanganga
is signing a new five-year deal.
I’m excited and you know for my family as well and honestly,
my dad’s there and for all of us, it’s just an exciting moment.
If you don’t mind me saying, neither of you look very happy...
There you go.
I knew this since when he was five, he had the skills of football.
He was like...
a machine when he's running with the ball.
All the big clubs were chasing him.
We came to Arsenal.
They said, "We want him to be an Arsenal player."
Luckily we found a person from Tottenham.
"Bring him tomorrow, at Tottenham, we like him."
Saturday, we had a game against Arsenal,
so he scored, I think, two goals.
Straight away after the match, they gave us the contract and he signed.
Shall we do a couple of pictures with Japhet here?
Yeah.
I think he knows how grateful I am of not only him but my whole family.
Everyone has chipped in and played a part for me to be in this moment today.
This is just the beginning.
This is the just the start and from here just to kick on,
just making sure I stay hungry and keep doing the things
that got me to play against Liverpool.
Keep doing what the manager asks, keep improving and make sure
I don’t get complacent and I don’t think I’ve made it
and I don’t need to try anymore
so that’s the big one for me.
We're excited about Japhet and the way he's progressed this season.
We’ve got a good group of good young players,
hopefully, we will add two or three players this summer, maybe more.
It’s difficult for fans because fans always say,
"We should be signing this player, we should be signing that player."
We've been backed in terms of transfer funds,
we know the holes, the gaps. I think José is very clear
that there is three to four positions he wants to improve on.
We work together always in cohesion with the academy,
with José, with Daniel, with a long-term plan.
Go on Sess! Yes, Sess!
And I think that is the difference between us and other clubs
that we've got to always look further down the line rather than today.
Big news for Manchester City later on this morning, they'll learn
whether their appeal against that two-year ban from European club
competitions has been successful.
You will remember they were banned from European football,
after being found to have committed serious breaches of UEFA’s club licensing
and financial fair play regulations.
We'll bring it to you, of course, as soon as we hear news of it.
CAS have overturned Manchester City's European ban
which means that they can participate
in the Champions League in the next two years.
What? Where is that?
Official media.
Official?
They’ve lifted it, there is no ban.
-No ban? -No ban.
-Man City? -Yeah.
The decision to overturn Manchester City’s ban
means that to guarantee Europa League football next season,
Tottenham must finish sixth.
They currently sit eighth, with only three games to go.
We have to win everything.
We need to win three games.
Spurs have only won away from home once this year.
Next up is a trip to Newcastle.
We win the three matches, we get Europa League.
If we win our matches, we are there.
We have to win, so no more talk.
Son...
What a wonderful strike! It’s absolutely spot on.
Bergwijn's delivery...
Harry Kane with an excellent header.
Tottenham take all three points,
with Harry Kane scoring two
to take his tally to over two hundred career goals.
Two hundred goals is just an amazing feeling.
During your career you kind of go through landmarks like that
and you don’t fully take it in. It will be when I finish playing,
you look back and you realise what you have actually done.
For me, I’ve scored two hundred goals
but it’s about how quickly can I get the next hundred, or next two hundred.
Today Harry’s wife and two daughters have joined him at the training centre
to reveal the gender of his third child to his friends and his family.
-Daddy! -What we all thinking?
-Boy, I think boy. -Boy.
I think there’s a big part of it when your personal life is going well,
it definitely relates to your professional life as well.
Daddy?
Daddy's gonna go and kick the ball now. Are you excited?
-What colour do you want? -Pink!
-Pink? -What about you, Vivi?
-Blue. -You want blue, you want pink.
I’ve been keeping Kate away from the letter so,
this a complete surprise, really.
Honestly, ain't got a clue what it’s going to be so we're excited.
Do you think Daddy's gonna score a goal? Yeah?
Go Daddy! Daddy, go!
That ball looks smaller than I thought.
Ready?
Oh, it's a boy!
Oh, it's a boy, Vivi!
-How you feeling, Harry? -Shocked?
Shocked, yeah. I'm really surprised. I'm really surprised.
I was adamant it was going to be a girl.
Is it a boy?
Oh, my God.
-Do a little girl now. -I can't do a little...
That's it! There's no more.
Things are exciting off the pitch and they’re exciting on the pitch as well.
We're finishing strong so hopefully we can get a Europa League spot
and at least be in four competitions next year.
Standing in the way of another three points,
in the final home match of the season,
are Champions League hopefuls, Leicester City.
Come on, everybody know your jobs.
Big step to go to Europe. Big step, right here.
It's a final, it's a final, it's a final. It's a final today, win or win.
Yeah, we'll win.
Massive game, come on!
Here is Kane to hold it up and he’s done really well to set away Son.
Heung-min Son...
leaves Bennet on the floor and Spurs have got an early lead.
And it’s a brilliantly constructed second goal.
Kane will score, something truly special.
Spurs are finishing the campaign very strongly
and have won three in the space of eight days.
Congratulations on the win. I mean, that seemed quite comprehensive really.
What did you make of the performance today?
I am very happy because it’s a game with a lot of pressure to us,
and we are fighting until we can.
Point after point, match after match and seeing the end.
Spurs are victorious in their last home game.
And today, the Chairman and Head Coach
are getting a bird’s eye view of the stadium and the London sky line.
OK?
-Feel OK? -Yeah.
I’m not bad with heights,
it's only when I look down that sometimes, I feel a bit strange.
-José, are you good with heights? -No.
No.
They're about to be taken up on to the roof,
a hundred and fifty feet above the pitch
and be amongst the first to try out The Dare Skywalk.
Do you want me to tell the team for Sunday in case I don’t come back?
I think VAR is more scary than this.
When you score a goal and you are there waiting, goal, no goal.
Tottenham is a size of a club that our players and our fans
expect us, and have got used to us being in Europe,
but you know, we have had a very, very difficult season.
So I think to end up in a place, not that it’s satisfactory,
um, but to end up still being in Europe,
I think, in the circumstances, will be a good place to end up.
Oh!
I'm glad I got something to hold onto.
It’s the best place to bring the agents to negotiate.
Oh, look at my bench. Oh, my god.
Incredible.
I always qualified for Europe so I don’t want to be the first time
of not qualifying for Europe.
It’s very important for me, for the players, for the fans,
for the club, for everybody.
But for the mental, by the pride side, it’s very, very important.
Going into the last match, Tottenham sit in eighth.
If they can secure a better result than Wolves, who are just one point ahead,
they will guarantee themselves a place in next season's Europa League.
You are working for twelve months.
Fucking since July.
Come on, it's impossible we don't do it.
Come on, hey! Let’s go, hey! Let’s go!
Let's go. Let's go, boys!
For Spurs, it has been the most unusual and dramatic of campaigns.
Along with the lockdown, Pochettino’s departure and Mourinho’s arrival,
Eriksen leaving, Alderweireld staying, injuries to Kane, Son, Lloris and Sissoko.
Too many stories to mention, but claiming Europa League football
ahead of a first full season under Mourinho
would be a good way to end 2019/20.
Sissoko... Kane...
well-weighted into Lucas Moura. Now Son’s made a good run into the middle.
Here’s Lo Celso...
who will have a crack at goal.
Chelsea nil, Wolves nil currently so Wolves is hanging onto sixth.
They only have to match Spurs result.
Lo Celso slips in Kane...
who pulls the trigger in emphatic fashion.
Typical Harry Kane.
So, at the moment Spurs are moving up to sixth.
Lucas Moura...
looks to spring into a gap, will he meet the ball? Yes, he does.
That was brilliant work.
It is half time,
and by the way, breaking news from Stamford Bridge,
Chelsea have taken the lead against Wolves.
That’s great news for Spurs.
If it all stays like this, Spurs are going into the Europa League.
We are defending quite well but we need to control the game.
We need to be more, more consistent.
If the league finished now,
in this moment, we are sixth,
but we need to win the game. The game can go in two directions.
Come on, lads. Come on!
As things stand even a draw would be enough for Spurs
because Wolves are trailing two-nil.
And Mourinho will know the score line, but he will want his players to focus.
Our ball!
Serge Aurier under real pressure near the corner flag.
Away! Again!
And it’s a big blow for Spurs.
Spurs cannot afford to lose here,
because if they lose, they will not claim sixth
no matter what happens at Stamford Bridge.
Joel Ward...
Oh, it's hit against the frame of the goal.
Look, look the ball!
Precarious position this, Ayew!
So we are now into added time.
It will be a Palace ball.
Delivery is dangerous...
and it's just wide.
That is the full-time whistle and with Wolves losing, this will be enough.
Mourinho and his coaching staff are celebrating.
I’m quite a spoilt coach because my career was always about
winning trophies, winning trophies, winning trophies.
I would never imagine myself celebrating in the end of the season finishing sixth,
but to arrive fourteenth and to finish sixth,
a good achievement?
I would say so.
[♪ AJ Tracey & Mabel: “West Ten”]
Tottenham when I took over was a much smaller club than it is today,
I saw this club as a club that was really a sleeping giant.
We are now in a period where we need to win.
You know, I’m a spurs fan and I want to see this club continue to grow
and I want to see trophies.
Can I just have your attention for a minute, please?
Firstly, I want to, uh, thank you all for what has been a difficult season
both on and off the pitch,
and what’s going on in the world today.
I’m very pleased that we're finishing the season in a good place
but two members of our team,
as we know, won’t be back next year, unfortunately.
So Michel and Jan, I would like you to come up here.
Both you guys have been an absolute credit to this club,
we would like to thank you very much, you are always welcome back.
Wish you both the best of luck in whatever you decide to do,
and we have a small gift that we bought both of you.
We bought you both a watch and we'll get something engraved
on the back for you.
Thank you very much.
I think this season is a difficult one,
the future will be bright and I’m going to miss everyone.
So, thank you for everything.
Thank you very much, I came here eight years ago
in a total different environment.
A lot has changed over the years, where we are now as a club, as a team,
you have made me very proud.
You guys mean so much to me,
I know for sure I will never find a team like this again.
I don’t watch a lot of football. I think in total 90 minutes I watch,
not even five games a season,
but I will watch every Spurs game that I can next season.
As we know, the fans call you Super Jan,
so we’ve also got a gift that’s actually from all your teammates.
I know, everyone I will FaceTime them after the game, I definitely know I will.
And they have got good chances of winning something next season
so hopefully for them they can now.
And yeah, I will follow them and it will be very special.
Spurs have played 52 games over 12 months, the longest season in their history.
An up and down season, been of a rollercoaster of a season,
obviously from a personal point of view of being injured and things like that.
And just from a team point of view, whenever
you start with one manager and finish with another,
it means it’s going to be a strange season.
There's no hiding the fact that we went through a few difficult spells,
and when we look at the quality we have in the team and around the place,
everything we have from training ground to stadium, everything is, I think,
you know, the quality is Champions League.
To not get the top four, it was painful
because Champions League everyone wants to play every season,
but at least the minimum you get is Europa League
and hopefully we will win some trophies because the quality is there
but I’m sure with this manager, we will do it.
I look forward to the beginning of next season because
everything we did, all these months that we spent together,
I think are very, very important for the future.
We are ready to go through everything like a strong family
and that creates us a good base,
but I want it to be better.
Better results.
Better football.
We have to try to win a title
and next season it is going to be done.
