Some Spurs fans on social media are split over whether Jose Mourinho and his coaching staff were right to celebrate Tottenham qualifying for the Europa League.
Tottenham had to beat Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park yesterday afternoon to give themselves the best chance of European football next season and they looked to be on course when Harry Kane gave them the lead with another fine finish.
However, Spurs were pegged back in the second half when Palace managed to equalise and secure a deserved draw.
Despite Tottenham’s failure to pick up all three points, Chelsea did the Lilywhites a favour by beating Wolves 2-0, ensuring that Spurs leapfrogged Nuno Espirito Santo’s men into the sixth spot.
Mourinho, who has already admitted his desire to win next season’s Europa League (Football.London), was seen celebrating the achievement with his coaching staff.
Some Spurs fans were left absolutely fuming that the Tottenham head coach was celebrating a sixth-place finish, while others insisted that it showed a winning mentality.

Jose admitted already that the objective that they have set internally is to win the Europa League next season, for which qualification was the first step. The Spurs boss is a man who likes having clear ambitions to work towards and qualifying for Europe is an objective he clearly rallied his squad around in the final few games. I have no problems with him celebrating the achievement.
