JOSE MOURINHO admits his Chelsea mole has not been able to give him an inside track on Frank Lampard’s team plans for this week’s clash at Stamford Bridge.
In February the Tottenham boss claimed ‘a source’ had passed on the selection Lampard was going with before the two sides met in the Premier League.

But as table-topping Spurs prepare to face their London rivals on Sunday in the big game of the weekend, Mourinho says he has no inside knowledge this time around.
He said: “Not yet, and probably not.
“But with such an amazing squad, you know, to play [Reece] James or [Cesar] Azpilicueta, to play [Ben] Chilwell, [Marcos] Alonso or Emerson.

“To play [Edouard] Mendy, or to play the most expensive goalkeeper of the history of the Premier League.
“Chelsea has an amazing squad, so I don’t I’m not even worried about who is going to play because they only have very good players.”
By the time Tottenham kick-off at Stamford Bridge they may have been replaced at the summit of the Premier League by Liverpool.
But Mourinho says nothing will deter him from the aim of taking maximum points against his former club.
Mourinho added: “Maybe we don’t go top of the league there, maybe Liverpool gets a point or a victory at Brighton, and then we don’t go there top of the league so I don’t even know.
“But going there top of the league or going there with Liverpool top of the league doesn’t change anything for us.
“We are always contenders to win the next match, nothing more than that. So, we are going to be there and there are three possible results.
“We are in football for a long time. We know of course that anything can happen. But we go there and our objective is to win the game.”
