Garth Crooks raves about Tottenham man who Jose Mourinho called "phenomenal"

Garth Crooks has shared his praise on Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, following Tottenham's 2 - 0 victory over Arsenal last weekend. The Danish midfielder has played a key role in the squad, since making a move to North London club during the summer transfer window. After the Arsenal match, Jose Mourinho described the player as "phenomenal", with the 25-year-old stealing the show with his performance, while he also caught the eye of the ex-Spurs man. “I didn’t think much of the signing of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in the first place to be perfectly honest and I wasn’t sure he was a Tottenham player," Crooks said. “What has become increasingly obvious is that here is another Mourinho player. Hojbjerg is looking like the real deal in a side that is more interested in being solid than pretty football. “To be fair, Tottenham’s style of play at home against Arsenal wasn’t as bad as I thought it might be under Mourinho. Hojbjerg had Willian in his pocket for much of the game.”
