Tottenham fans were out in force to cheer on their new boss as he looks to turn their season around after a poor run of form.

A group of supporters in the away end of the London Stadium held up a banner which read: “Thank you Poch. Welcome Jose.”

The Special One’s afternoon got off to an incredible start after Son Heung-min gave his side the lead after 35 minutes.

And Lucas Moura doubled Spurs’ tally on the brink of half-time before Harry Kane made it 3-0 early in the second half.

Prior to kick-off, even the Hammers fans proved they were excited to see the 56-year-old back in the Premier League.



The ex-Chelsea manager was spotted signing West Ham and Tottenham shirts for the home supporters.

Mourinho has set his sights on winning the Premier League with the north London club next season.

And he is set to pocket a juicy £2million bonus if he can lead struggling Spurs to the top four this term.
