Mourinho post-Brighton
Last time out
On Dele Alli
However, Spurs were unwilling to sanction Alli's departure without signing a replacement.
Alli has been cast to the sidelines by Mourinho, however, with the injury to Kane, it could be possible that Alli will have a chance to showcase his talent once again.
On Gareth Bale
He made his first Premier League start against Brighton and was hauled off after 60 minutes.
Mourinho has been very clear that Bale has suffered injuries and other external factors during his time in North London.
However, should Spurs extend the deal, Bale will need to start showing glimpses of talent that he possesses.
On Thomas Tuchel
Tuchel has achieved two clean sheets and one convincing win in his short time in charge, with his change in formation appearing to have found a formula for that Chelsea squad.
Mourinho will be asked on his thoughts on Tuchel, the formation and the key players in the Blues’ squad.
Harry Kane
It is thought that Kane will make a return against Manchester City in less than two weeks, it is possible that the England captain will make a return ahead of schedule.
Trying to get back to winning ways
Whilst the title challenge is now off the table, Spurs still have a chance at Champions League qualification and are fighting on all fronts in the Europa League, Carabao Cup and the FA Cup.
Mourinho will be fully focused on trying to complete the double of his old west London counterparts.
