Jol declared: “No one could have done better than me here — not even Mourinho.
“I have to cope with the situation I am in. I have to come up with the goods and that is what I did.”
Jol added: “To be fifth in the league with Spurs two seasons running is not bad — it’s very good!
“There are football people on our board and I think they realise it otherwise they probably would have made a decision already.
“I feel top five was probably more than we would have expected when I started.”
