Tottenham Hotspur players are losing patience with Jose Mourinho after being repeatedly called out by their manager, according to a report.

Spurs have endured a bad run of form either side of the international break, exiting the Europa League to Dinamo Zagreb and dropping five points in their last three league games.

The Lilywhites were pegged back late on by Newcastle United on Saturday, with Arsenal loanee Joe Willock firing in five minutes from time to deny Spurs.

Speaking after Tottenham's latest setback, Mourinho insinuated that he was not to blame for the draw but rather his players.

The Telegraph claims that Mourinho's less-than-complimentary comments of late have not gone down well in the dressing room, with many members of his squad growing angry.

According to a separate report, Tottenham chiefs are already weighing up whether to part company with Mourinho at the end of his first full campaign in charge.

Sixth-placed Spurs are back in action next Sunday with a home match against Mourinho's former side Manchester United.
