Jose Mourinho's 'tough love' will make Troy Parrott 'better in the long run', says Niall Quinn

Niall Quinn believes Republic of Ireland striker Troy Parrott will benefit from what he describes as José Mourinho's "tough love" at Tottenham.

Spurs boss Mourinho has stated his opinion that 18-year-old Parrott is not ready to play first-team football and has been reluctant to hand him chances to start in his team despite long-term injuries to his first choice forwards Harry Kane and Son Heung-min.
