New Tottenham Hotspur boss Jose Mourinho has spoken Spurs on several occasions during the last year.
The former Manchester United boss has appointed to replace Mauricio Pochettino as Spurs look to get back into contention for the top four in the Premier League.
He will take charge of his first Tottenham game against West Ham on Saturday.
Mourinho spoke about Pochettino and striker Harry Kane after watching Spurs lose 2-0 in the Champions League final to Liverpool in June.
The Portuguese claimed that Spurs should be proud of the job Pochettino did at the club after reaching the final.
“That’s the drama of football and sometimes it’s not fair," Mourinho said to beIN sport.
"Mauricio has had four very good years at Spurs, brings them to the final for the Champions League, and he’s still waiting for the first trophy of his career.
“I feel very sorry for Mauricio but I think the English supporter is very loyal and they know when people give everything. They are a bit different than in other countries when everything is just about winning.
“I think the Tottenham fans are proud of their team. They still look to this team and this manager as a historical team for them.
“They will feel some love at home and next season when they go back to business, they will go with the pride of what they did and not in a low.”
Mourinho also discussed Kane in the game as he struggled to shake-up an injury picked up in the weeks before the final.
"Harry Kane was hidden all the time," he said. "He normally drops back, comes in between the lines, normally he’s the link player.
"He receives the ball from one side, he goes between the lines, he turns, plays with the other full back, arrives in the box. Nothing of this dynamic yet."
