City VP Manjit

For once it was the right result for the right reasons but no matter pulling of a win today, the news that Serge Aurier lost his brother just 48 hours before the match in a most horrific manner - and that he chose to play today, speaks more than words at the character of the man.

For people who do not follow football, they do not know just how important the role of fans are and just how important the role of story is.  These are two stories that were not directly played on the field, one connected to a brother who got murdered in France and the other on the touchlines of Portugal and Spain where Mourinho learned the art of management.

Today against Newcastle United and a few days ago against Arsenal, it was a team that has started to learn how to play the Mourinho way.  It is not pretty to watch but he knows how to grind out a result.  If Spurs finish 6th Place, that would vindicate higher Mourinho for the long-term.  There are many who do not wish him well but if Spurs achieve eventually to win trophies - all of this negativity will be quickly forgotten.  As for Serge Aurier - only 2 days ago most Spurs fans would have hoped to see him on the transfer list.  Today in these most tragic of circumstances, every Spurs fan will be rooting for Serge Aurier to stay.  He showed today that he is team footballer who understands his brotherhood at Tottenham, and tomorrow he flies off to France to his heartbroken mother - and the deeper pain of loss will be shared with his family.  Today this as the Brotherhood Moment.
