Jose Mourinho got told to ‘cheer up’ by journalist after their defeat to RB Leipzig which saw Tottenham crash out of Champions League.
It meant that it would be another trophy-less season for the north London side and with the injuries they’ve got right now, they’ve got little chance of qualifying for next season’s tournament.

You could understand the bleak look on Jose’s unhappy face, however one person said to him the ‘season is going to be okay’ at the post match press conference.
Appears to be live-streaming the incident as video via his phone which would suggest a planned stunt

Premier League Spurs were initially 1-0 down on aggregate after Timo Werner scored from the spot in the first leg, and it could have been much worse had it not been for Hugo Lloris’ excellent performance at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
However, it just wasn’t his day on Tuesday when the goalkeeper made two howlers to help Leipzig go 2-0 up within 21 minutes thanks to Marcel Sabitzer.
Substitute Emil Forsberg came on late in the second half for Sabitzer and within in a minute scored with his first touch.
It makes worrying reading for two time UCL winner Mourinho as he hasn’t won a knockout game in the Champions League since 2014 and has failed to win any of his last six games in all competitions.
Footage of Jose Mourinho getting told to ‘cheer up’ by a journalist was uploaded to social media for many to laugh at…
To be fair, fair play to Jose for the way he handled that absolute virgin

There’s no need for the reporter to even say anything, just do his job and that’s it, Jose should’ve nutted him

Disrespectful. Journo getting above his station. Jose should ban him from future press conferences

nothing awkward about that other than some knob trying to provoke a reaction from him to sell or get likes on his social media account. Sad.

Its crazy how José has skipped his successful stage with spurs and went straight to the negative stage
