The players were back in training on Sunday, the morning after our 2-0 loss at Arsenal in the first north London derby of the season.
Speaking on Monday, just before the squad flew out to Germany, Mauricio told us about the mood in the camp back at Hotspur Way. “The players were still disappointed about the result, of course,” he said.
“That was our first time (Mauricio’s first league derby loss) in three-and-a-half years and yes, you feel bad and very disappointed. The effort was massive from the players trying to get a good result but we’re very disappointed for different reasons.
