Daniel Storey: First impression crucial for Jose as sack race hots up

Mourinho starts as he means to go on at Tottenham...

This was a favourable time for Jose Mourinho to take over at Tottenham. West Ham’s home form has been wholly unreliable, with their team booed off more often than cheered over the last two months. Olympiakos at home in the Champions League allows Spurs to put one foot in the knockout stages, before Bournemouth visit the London stadium. Mourinho will hope for an early run of wins to lift the mood. That is his usual modus operandi in a new job.
