And when asked about harmony in the Spurs camp, Mourinho was quoted by Daily Mail responding tetchily to Shreeves, saying:

"I don't understand why you ask me, because for a week people were writing and speaking like they know everything.

"So I don't understand why you ask me unless you have doubts about what your colleagues spent all week speaking about."
