Football action will return to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Friday with spurs’ much anticipated match against Manchester United.
So far, Aston Villa and Sheffield United kick-started things with a drab draw on Wednesday before 10-man Arsenal were beaten 3-0 at Manchester City.
On live reports from Evening Standard, Standard Dan Kilpatrick will be in attendance at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Friday.
Meanwhile, Mourinho has made comments concerning updates of some of his players. He said:
“The three players who had surgery – Sissoko, Kane and Son – are going to start, ” “Harry Kane hasn’t played football for more than six months. He is working extremely well. I can tell you no problem; he’s going to start the game. Does Harry have 90, 80, 70, 60 minutes? I don’t know.
“Only the game will tell us that. Is he on the top of his form? We don’t know. It’s not a little training session with our friends from Norwich that’s going to tell us the answer.
“But for him he’s around six months without playing a football match but he works extremely well. He’s an amazing professional and he’s going to start tomorrow.”
“Because of the rules, his injury is not in need of surgery but needed daily treatment, close contact with physios and fitness coaches working with him, but that was not possible.
“So two months he was injured but he couldn’t recover from it. When the training ground opened, and he started treatment, it was not enough to have him 100 per cent.
“The last few days training, available tomorrow I think so. Tomorrow we’re going to test if he is able to play.”
While Mourinho questions Dele Alli’s ban, he said, Argentine star Giovani Lo Celso has been a “victim” of the lockdown and has been unable to get properly up to speed since Tottenham returned to training last month.
“He needed daily treatment, needed close contact with physios and fitness coaches working with him, but that was not possible.”
