Tottenham Hotspur boss Jose Mourinho won plenty of admirers in a Premier League meeting between players and managers last week, according to the Daily Mail.
With the Premier League set to restart in the near future, some players have expressed concerns over getting back to playing, but the Spurs boss had little time for their worries.
Indeed, he reportedly said that any player fearing the return should ‘stay at home and watch the Bundesliga’.
The Tottenham boss’s comments are said to have been welcomed in several quarters, by players who are eager to get back.
The Premier League have provisionally scheduled a return in June, with the season now given until August 22nd to finish.
Tottenham could be the first game back, as they are due to face Manchester United on the opening weekend, when the campaign does get back underway.
Spurs will be chasing a top four spot when the play does return, but Mourinho’s side are some way back from the Champions League qualification spots as things stand.
