Jamie Carragher wants Jose Mourinho’s Tottenham to win the league if Liverpool can’t retain their crown


Jamie Carragher says it would be the ultimate recovery story for the much-maligned Jose Mourinho to win the Premier League again with Tottenham if Liverpool can’t hold their title. Mourinho is turning around the fortunes of Spurs after Mauricio Pochettino’s departure from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Liverpool legend Carragher would like to see Mourinho win the league again. "I obviously want Liverpool to win the league, but if someone else were to win it, I’d love to see Jose Mourinho win again," Carragher told Sky Sport. "Mourinho has had so much thrown at him recently; accusations that he’s yesterday’s man, his football is from a different era. I’d love to see him win again and almost stick two fingers up at pundits and the press, whoever. It would be a good story for Mourinho to do that again. After what he’s achieved in his career, he still gets a lot of criticism because he rubs people up the wrong way at different times, but it would be nice to see him win again in a different way." "There was no bigger fan of Mauricio Pochettino than me, but his team was done, and it needed to evolve and change," Carragher added. "When Jose came in things were a bit stop-start last season, and don’t think for one minute that anyone involved with Tottenham – from Daniel Levy, to Jose Mourinho and his players – thought about challenging for the title this season, it would have all been about getting into the top four. "But because this season has been so strange – Liverpool losing Virgil van Dijk, Manchester City not looking right and having already dropped eight points – if there is ever going to be a chance when someone does do something, this will be the season."
