Tottenham: Mourinho fumes over defensive errors in draw
Tottenham may have a way out of paying Jose Mourinho £30million should Daniel Levy decide to sack the Spurs boss at the end of the season. Tottenham have endured a mixed season under Mourinho in his first full campaign in charge.

The pressure soon began to mount on Mourinho following back-to-back defeats to Manchester City and West Ham.
Spurs have since picked up strong results against Burnley, Crystal Palce and Aston Villa.
And Chelsea's surprise defeat to West Brom at the weekend gave Tottenham a great chance to climb back into the top four against Newcastle.
Joe Willock scored a late equaliser for the Magpies though with Spurs missing out on the opportunity to climb about Thomas Tuchel's side on goal difference.
The result has seen Mourinho come under increased pressure yet again with just eight games remaining for the Spurs boss to gurantee European football for next season.
And, according to the Daily Mail, whether they qualify for next year's Champions League or Europa League will have huge ramifications on Mourinho's compensation package should he be fired this summer.
The report states that Levy wants to give Mourinho until the end of the campaign to see where the club finish in the table.
It's been claimed that Tottenham will have to fork up the £30million left on Mourinho's contract should he be sacked.
