Jose Mourinho says Tottenham are a bigger club than simply targeting a season finish above Arsenal.

Mourinho is adamant finishing above arch-rivals Arsenal is not a priority for Tottenham after watching his emerge victorious in the North London Derby.

He said: "That is a fan's view. I have to be more ambitious than that.

"I know I could look at in a selfish point of view and say since I arrived, if the championship started in that moment, even with all the problems we had I think we would now be fourth or fifth in the table.

"I don't want to be selfish, I don't want to look at it just as a fan that is happy to finish above Arsenal.

"I would love to play Europa League. It is not a competition I am in love with, it is not a competition I would like very much to play, but when you cannot play Champions League you play Europa League.

"In my career I only played Europa League twice, and I won it twice. It would not be bad to play it a third time and to win it a third time."
