I suppose if there was ever a day to bury news it would be today, though Tottenham sacking Jose Mourinho is going to be difficult to keep quiet even with this European Super League dominating the news.
At the time of writing this there is no club announcement but everyone and their uncle is tweeting it including Fabrizio Romano.
The timing of this is very strange with a cup final just six days away, however, it may well be that Levy feared winning the Carabo Cup would make it more difficult for him to sack the former Real Madrid manager.
It would have made more sense to do this at the end of the season but it may also be related to the European Super League, who knows.
What is certain is that the writing was on the wall, the results were terrible and Mourinho’s body language did not look good.
Add in the discontent with the players and the fans split over the Portuguese and it was always a matter of time.
There was also the style of football that was very depressing.
This does not bode well for the match against Man City and on a personal level, the sooner this season is over with, the better.
