CGTN Sports Talk host Hu Zhicheng is joined by senior expert Josh McNally to discuss Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho's current downward spiral.

As one of the most decorated managers in the history of football, Mourinho has delivered success wherever he has been, but over the past few years, he is looking out of his depth.

Has Mourinho lost the golden touch?
