I've done some digging up of stats that people can make of whatever they will, the stats don't save Mourinho from criticism but they do put it into a bit of context.
The wheels came off against Burnley last season, since we're going back to Turf Moor it feels relevant to drag all this stuff up.
Before Burnley:
3rd: Tottenham, 20-0-6, 60 points, 2,30 PPG
From the Burnley game until the end of the season:
16th: Tottenham, 3-2-7, 11 points, 0,92 PPG
From the Burnley game until Pochettino was sacked we played 24 PL matches
18/19: 3-2-7, 11 points, 0,92 PPG
19/20: 3-5-4, 14 points, 1,17 PPG
Total: 6-7-11, 25 points, 1,04 PPG
Since Mourinho was hired we have this PL record
8-2-6, 26 points, 1,63 PPG
Given all the injuries I'm still willing to cut Mourinho a little bit of slack on the results, my criticism of him goes mostly on that we have absolutely no discernable style of play when neither Kane or Son are in the side. It's now two months since Kane was injured and nearly every game since then we've played like the team is composed of 11 strangers that met each other in the tunnel, that just isn't good enough.
