Wanyama is good and will soon be in the team, Mourinho says
Tottenham Hotspur new manager Jose Mourinho has praised midfielder Victor Wanyama despite failing to field him.
The 28-year-old midfielder, who has featured sparingly for Spurs this season faces tough opposition in Spurs’ midfield from likes of Tanguy Ndombele, Harry Winks, Moussa Sissoko, Oliver Skipp and Eric Dier, who all look more likely to start ahead of him.
It was noticeable again today that the Kenyan captain was not in the starting line-up nor on the bench for Tottenham’s match against Bournemouth, sparking speculation over his future at the club.
Despite not including him in his line-up since joining Tottenham as a manager, Mourinho hailed Wanyama as a ‘very good player’, but admitted that he may find it tough to include him straight into the starting line-up.
Mourinho told Football.London: “I know how good Victor is, I know he is not playing lately. Of course, when you don’t play regularly, you lose a little bit of that match condition.
“He is fit, he is fine and has no physical problems at all. But one thing is to be fit and another is to be match fitness, match intensity, and match pace.”
