Tottenham Hotspur reduced the gap between them and Chelsea to just six points following the 1-0 loss to West Ham on Saturday.
Before Jose Mourinho’s appointment as Tottenham Hotspur boss, Chelsea were 12 points ahead of Tottenham.
Speaking after his team’s victory over Bournemouth, Mourinho revealed it will be fantastic to play Chelsea with a six-point difference.
He also revealed Tottenham will work hard to maintain the gap with Chelsea or even reduce the gap before both sides meet in the Premier League.
“We play Chelsea at the end of December, if the game was tomorrow, we would play them with six points difference, it would be a fantastic situation to play them,”
Mourinho said after Tottenham beat Bournemouth 3-2 on Saturday, according to Four Four Two.
“But we play them in the end of December. We have to keep close, as close as possible. But we have a lot to work and a lot to improve.”
