We need to have the players but we don't have the players. We lose so many. Sissoko, Harry, and today Lamela, Lo Celso and Bergwijn. It is so difficult," he said."One game we have players A, B and C out and then the next game we are without D, E and F. It's been a very difficult season," Mourinho added.Despite missing key players, Tottenham on Thursday managed to register a 3-2 win over Southampton in FA Cup.However, in the Premier League, they are settled on the fifth spot with just 37 points.
