Jose Mourinho Called Manchester City 'A Team Of C***s' In Spurs Half-Time Team Talk

Jose Mourinho called Manchester City "a team of c***s" in a half-time team talk that will be shown in the Amazon Prime documentary.

'All or Nothing: Tottenham Hotspur" has proven to be the Mourinho show, with the documentary giving a unique insight into his managerial approach and just how many expletives he lets out in a day.

In the first three episodes we've already seen him shout "F**k off!" as he turns the television off when they are questioning his coaching abilities on Sky Sports, as well as branding Dele Alli "f*****g" lazy" to his face.

And clearly there's more to come as Darren Lewis from The Mirror provides a lowdown of what the Portuguese said to his players in the dressing room at half-time during a 2-0 win over City in February.

His rallying cry was in relation to City remonstrating for a second penalty in the first half immediately after Ilkay Gundogan saw his spot-kick saved by Hugo Lloris - and how he wanted his team to be more like them.

When you save the penalty, they try to put huge pressure for another penalty to be given. This is the difference between a team of c**** and a team of good guys.

"But the story of football is that the teams of good guys, they never win. So f*****g hell! Be a c***!""

These type of comments from Mourinho are a recurring theme throughout the series as he tries to instill a winning mentality at Spurs.

In the team talk, he also stated that City would put pressure on the fact that defender Toby Alderweireld had been booked - urging his players to do the same for the three City players on a yellow card.

"The way the game is going, they know Toby has a yellow card. I promise you, they know. I have to say that Kyle Walker, he has a yellow card, Zinchenko, he has a yellow card. Raheem Sterling, he has a yellow card. So be a c***. Don't be a good guy!"

His motivational talk worked a treat as not only did Oleksandr Zinchenko receiving his marching orders, Spurs won 2-0 courtesy of second half goals from debutant Steven Bergwijn and Heung-Min Son.
