Mourinho took over at Spurs in November (Picture: Getty)Brad Friedel insists Jose Mourinho will ‘come good’ at Tottenham Hotspur and believes he needs time to put his own stamp on the side. When Mourinho’s predecessor, Mauricio Pochettino, was sacked in November, Spurs were 14th in the Premier League and 11 points off the Champions League spots. So he’ll need a couple of transfer windows to form his own team. ‘Jose’s current period was more of an assessment of the squad and the players he has available, and those that are leaving. The time to see if his appointment was indeed a success would be after three or four transfer windows if he’s given that time, but head coaches often aren’t given that time in the current climate.
