Mourinho: I want to win silverware for Spurs - not for me

Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho says he wants to bring silverware to the club.

Mourinho has explained that his desire to win trophies at every club he goes to is "not an ego thing".

He told Canal Plus: "Of course I have a dream with Spurs.

"But first of all I have a challenge to myself, which is to try to win a trophy with every club. Some guys think that it is an ego thing, it is not an ego thing.

"It is more than that, it is the way that I was raised, it is the way that I grew up and it is the way where even being, I am sorry for the word, a s*** football player, always trying to win even at my level. And this is my nature.

"So I would love to do that, that's the challenge. But you need time, and it looks like for some reason the football world thinks everyone deserves time, But I never deserve time. I have to do it like this."
