Tottenham Hotspur manager Jose Mourinho has left the Spurs fanbase fuming following his recent post-game remarks over the lack of striking options at his disposal.

The north Londoners were defeated 2-1 by Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon as their hopes of making the top four in the Premier League took a major dent.

Spurs were well beaten despite the narrow scoreline, managing just five shots to the home team's 17, per the BBC's match report.

Following the game, Mourinho said: “We have zero strikers on the pitch. Zero strikers on the bench. Zero strikers in the stands & two in hospital" as relayed by Hayters TV via Last Word on Spurs.

Here's what fans have been saying in response...

There were plenty of superlatives used to describe the comments with "embarrassing" frequently cropping up while "toothless," "spineless" and "gutless" were other words of choice.

It led to some calling for Troy Parrott to feature for once - he hasn't even been named in the matchday squad in recent weeks.

Mourinho was labelled a "coward" for not playing him by one supporter and another called him a "tool" for leaving the teenager in the stands.

However, not everyone saw the culpability lying solely with the Portuguese boss as ex-manager Mauricio Pochettino and chairman Daniel Levy also took some of the blame as well as the ENIC Group who own around 85% of Spurs.

Spurs failed to sign a striker during the January transfer window and one of their Deadline Day targets, Olivier Giroud, even made them pay over the weekend.

But there's not much Mourinho can do with Heung-min Son and Harry Kane on the treatment table.
