Mourinho needs to 'have a good look at himself' after lazy jibe at Tottenham players, says Sheringham

Former Tottenham and England star Teddy Sheringham says that Jose Mourinho has to "have a look at himself" after saying that Spurs' players were guilty of being "lazy".

Mourinho was frustrated following Spurs' 1-0 loss to Everton to open their Premier League season, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin scoring the game's only goal.

Following the match Mourinho said that Spurs were "lazy" with their pressing, allowing Everton to get a foothold in the game, but Sheringham took exception to that, saying the manager must take responsibility for his own role in the team's failures.
