Tottenham Hotspur boss Jose Mourinho admits he was 'angry' at Dele Alli after Stoke City's equaliser on Wednesday.

The Englishman made his first start for Spurs since November 26.

Alli was visibly upset when he was substituted in the second half of the 3-1 victory.

And Mourinho was equally annoyed at Alli after his sloppy possession to lead Stoke tying up the scores.

"For me a player who plays in that position is a player that has to link and create and not create problems for his own team," Mourinho said in his post-match press conference. "They got us on the counterattack, so yes I was angry.

"First half we were solid. They didn't touch the ball, have a shot, have a corner. Instead of killing the game we kill ourselves. After that was a moment we needed stability and attitude."
