Premier League season was 'wrong' before it even started, says Tottenham manager Mourinho

The Portuguese coach has once again taken aim at the powers that be, just days after mocking them following the postponement of Spurs' Fulham clash

Tottenham head coach Jose Mourinho has claimed that the 2020-21 Premier League season has been “wrong” since before a ball had been kicked, citing unfairness in the fact that both Manchester teams began their campaigns with a game in hand.
