Jose Mourinho takes swipe at Spurs for firing him before the 2021 League Cup final... as he prepares to lead Roma through another European cup final tonight

Jose Mourinho has taken a swipe at Spurs for the way they fired him ahead of the 2021 League Cup final - as he looks to achieve yet more European success with Roma.

The Portuguese manager has been one of the most clinical bosses in competition finals, including winning last year's Europa Conference League final in Tirana against Dutch side Feyenoord.

Now he's going for another piece of European silverware with Roma, in the Europa League final against Sevilla on Wednesday night in the Hungarian capital of Budapest.

In the official pre-match press conference ahead of proceedings, Mourinho used the opportunity to take a swipe at Tottenham Hotspur - comparing the situation there, where he was jettisoned ahead of the 2021 League Cup final, with a much calmer atmosphere at Roma.
