'You don't discuss rocket science with NASA but people think they can discuss football with one of the most important managers in the game': Jose Mourinho hits back at his critics as he faces more scrutiny at Tottenham over his methods

Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho has fiercely hit back at his critics and scrutiny over his coaching methods, insisting he is still 'one of the most important managers in the game'.

The Portuguese is currently enjoying some down time with his Tottenham players scattered across the globe on international duty but his position was under serious threat before the break.

Mourinho's job as Spurs boss is hanging by a thread after he presided over a north London derby defeat by Arsenal and then saw his team crash out of the Europa League in humiliating fashion at Dinamo Zagreb.
