Tottenham midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg says he's enjoyed his first season under manager Jose Mourinho.

Speaking before last night's FA Cup defeat at Everton, the Dane talked up Mourinho's influence on the players.

He told BILD: "He has turned us into a machine where all players connect and everyone works for each other. Everyone in the club can feel it, and I am proud to be a part of it."

The midfielder continued: "It motivates me, makes me continue and think ahead, and I want even more.

"I want to make the team better. My job is to read the game well, communicate properly and organise the team. In the end, it's always about the whole."
