Tottenham's 2-0 home win over West Ham is their only league victory in the last six matchesTottenham manager Jose Mourinho says he was "destroyed a little bit on the inside" by his team's 3-1 defeat at Sheffield United on Thursday. Spurs were runners-up in last year's Champions League under Mauricio Pochettino but are currently ninth in the Premier League table, nine points behind fourth-placed Chelsea. Asked about Thursday's loss, Mourinho said: "I thought that by a desire point of view, they put more than us. Spurs have qualified for the Champions League for the last four seasons and have not finished lower than sixth in 11 years, but Mourinho's side have won just one of their last six Premier League matches. The defeat at Bramall Lane, in which a Harry Kane equaliser was controversially ruled out by VAR because the ball had brushed the tumbling Lucas Moura's hand in the build-up, saw Sheffield United move above Tottenham in the table.
