Jose Mourinho says his Tottenham side “could be champions in other European countries” after reiterating the Premier League is the most difficult league to win.
The Spurs head coach watched his side momentarily go top of the Premier League table on Sunday following their 1-0 victory at West Brom thanks to a late Harry Kane goal.
Leicester’s victory against Wolves meant Tottenham were subsequently knocked off the summit within hours and Mourinho is under no illusions how hard it will be to win his fourth Premier League title.

“I would say that this team could be champions in many European countries,” Mourinho said.
“In the Premier League it is the most difficult one to be [champions].
“You can do a good season, you can have a lot of points but in the end you know – Liverpool, Man City, Chelsea, Man United, Leicester, Arsenal – you can have a good season and not be champions.”
Victory at The Hawthorns, thanks to Kane’s 150th Premier League goal, continued an encouraging start to the campaign for Tottenham, who temporarily reached top spot for the first time since August 2014.
Their best Premier League finish came in 2016 when they finished second behind title winners Leicester.
