Tottenham: Mourinho says he is ‘proud’ of team despite losing

In attack, there have been calls to start young Troy Parrot, after the injuries to the club’s other strikers.
But, Mourinho hasn’t handed the 18-year-old a first-team appearance since the start of December.
He wasn’t even named in the squad last weekend, with the manager preferring to go without any strikers in his 18.
He’s unlikely to be named in the Spurs team this weekend, given his lack of playing time.

If Lamela were to start, he’d likely takeover Lucas Moura’s usual, right-wing role.
He’ll be looking to cut inside on his left foot, with Aurier overlapping.
January signing Steven Bergwijn will occupy the left-hand side.
Moura is the most likely player to take over as the club’s centre-forward, although he’s expected to drop back into a false 9 position throughout the tie.
