Tottenham boss Mourinho: Nuno's Wolves can win Europa League

Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho says Nuno is capable of leading Wolves to victory in the Europa League.

Mourinho was relieved after Spurs managed to see off Wolves on Sunday.

And afterwards, he said of fellow Portuguese Nuno: "It's a matter for Nuno, but I think they are with us [Tottenham], Chelsea, [Manchester] United and Arsenal fighting for the top six and sniffing the top 4.

"In the Europa League, I always find it unfair that the defeated [Champions League third-placed] drop [into the Europa League]. For me, the defeated in the Champions League should return home.

"Now they [Wolverhampton] must beat Inter, Ajax and other good Champions League teams. But they can beat anyone, at home or away. They have an amazing mindset."
