Some Aston Villa fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to Tottenham Hotspur head coach Jose Mourinho’s comments about their team.

Mourinho has raved about Villa, and has said that he loves watching Dean Smith’s side play.

The Portuguese made the comments following Tottenham’s win against Leeds United at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the Premier League at the weekend.

Spurs will take on Villa away from home at Villa Park in the Premier League on January 13.

BBC Sport quotes Mourinho as saying: “Leeds are difficult and Aston Villa is my favourite team in the Premier League at the moment. I enjoy watching them, they have good players and very well coached. This is up next.”

Some Villa fans have given their take on Twitter on Mourinho’s comments, as shown below.

While some supporters think that the Portuguese is playing mind games ahead of the match, others have suggested that the former Chelsea and Manchester United manager could make an approach for one of their best players.

Villa have some wonderful players, such as Jack Grealish, John McGinn and Tyrone Mings, and the Villans are doing very well this season, sitting eighth in the Premier League table at the moment.

Back in August 2018, Sky Sports reported that Tottenham made a bid of £25 million for Grealish, but Villa turned it down.
