Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho has hit back at suggestions that he sets up his team to play with a more cautious approach against high-profile opponents.
Spurs are currently reeling from two losses in a matter of days, with defeat in the North London Derby swiftly followed by a humiliating 3-0 reverse to Dinamo Zagreb that saw them dumped out of the Europa League despite a 2-0 lead from the first leg.
Questions have been raised over Mourinho's tactical approach in the wake of those results, but the Portuguese was quick to pick holes in any assertion that he favours a defensive approach to big games.
