Jose Mourinho enjoyed a successful return to the Premier League as Tottenham Hotspur beat West Ham United 3-2 at London Stadium.

Spurs went two up at half-time thanks to Heung-Min Son’s third goal in two games at the London Stadium and a determined finish from Lucas Moura – one of three players restored to the starting line-up by Mourinho.

Lucas missed a sitter just after the restart but Harry Kane quickly added the third with a header that also took him above Martin Chivers as Spurs third-highest scorer of all-time as the visitors dominated for the bulk of the game.

But Kane was denied another by a fine last-ditch tackle from Issa Diop just past the hour mark. The hosts, also struggling of late, upped their game and pulled a goal back on 73 minutes when Cresswell’s delivery came out to Antonio, who drilled low past Gazzaniga from the edge of the area.

And Angelo Ogbonna scored with practically the last kick of the contest deep in added time, but it was too little, too late for Manuel Pellegrini’s side as Tottenham clinched their first Premier League away win since January and first in six games in the competition.

Spurs’ victory lifts them from 14th to ninth.

West Ham drop to 16th with 13 points from 13 matches.

Real Madrid star Eden Hazard has confirmed Arsene Wenger’s declaration that he was overweight when he joined the Santiago Bernabeu club.

The former Arsenal boss stated that Eden Hazard struggled to perform at the Spanish giants because “he came too heavy.”

The Frenchman added: “If you want to make a horse lose a race, putting two kilos on a horse of 500 kilos is enough.”

But the Belgian wasn’t just carrying a few extra pounds after completing an £89million move from Chelsea last summer.

Hazard told L’Equipe: “[My weight?] I don’t hide it. When I am on vacation, I am on vacation.

“I am someone who takes weight fast and loses it fast.

“When I was in Lille at 18, I weighed 72 kilos. Afterwards, I gained muscle mass up to 75 kilos.

“On a bad day I weight 77 kilos, but weighed 80 this summer. I lost everything in ten days.”

Reports in Italy claim Inter Milan coach Antonio Conte received a letter threatening his daughter and Antonio Pintus, a staff member and a former Juventus fitness coach.

The letter, according to Football Italia, is said to have been traced back to Florence, contained a rifle cartridge and a threatening letter directed at the former Juventus coach with the text “we know where you live and who your daughter is.”

La Stampa reports that the local police in Milan has been in touch with Conte and he doesn’t recognise the writing, nor the content particularly reminding him of anyone.

The letter contained an eight-gauge cartridge, mainly used for hunting, and could be tracked back to Florence by the authorities.

There’s a possible supporter of an opposing team, who is annoyed by the Inter side and their good performances this term, but also one from the Nerazzurri who doesn’t approve of his past in Turin.

The fact Pintus, formerly of Juventus and Real Madrid, was also mentioned would suggest it is a grudge about their Bianconeri past.

The letter contained writing in black, listing the names of his family members and the text: “We know where you live… We know who your daughter is.”

However, the letter was sent to the Inter HQ and not directly to Conte’s home, which suggests the information about his address is incorrect.

There are reports in England Christian Pulisic is set to miss Chelsea’s game at Man City on Saturday with a hip injury.

The American missed his nation’s clash with Canada in the international break and stayed in London for treatment instead.

Frank Lampard was hoping to have him back in time for the top of the table clash after he came off injured against Palace last time out.

But it looks increasingly likely the winger will miss out.

Reports in Italy claim there are two major obstacles that may scuttle Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud’s transfer to to Inter Milan.

The Nerrazurri boss Antonio Conte is reportedly keen to add the Frenchman to his attack as Chile international Alex Sanchez is on the sidelines as a result of injury.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the two stumbling blocks are his wage demands and length of contract.

The former Juventus boss worked with the Frenchman at Chelsea and would like a reunion at Inter.

The 33-year-old, for his part, wants to make Didier Deschamps’ France Euro 2020 squad and needs more playing time.

The France international currently earns around €8m a season at Stamford Bridge, something the Inter hierarchy won’t consider offering him.

The other issue is the duration of any agreement, as Inter would like to offer Giroud an 18-month contract, whereas the striker wants a deal to run to 2022.

Former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho’s appointment was announced on Wednesday morning by Tottenham after the a string of dismal performances by the White Hart Lane side.

Mauricio Pochettino was sacked on Tuesday for his inability to turn the fortune around after taking the club to their first-ever Champions League final last season.

The Portuguese told Spur’s official website about his excitment at joining the London club. His words: “I am excited to be joining a club with such great heritage and such passionate supporters,” the 53-year-old told Spurs’ official website.

“The quality both in the squad and in the academy excites me. Working with these players is what has attracted me.”

Meanwhile, Spurs supporters have reacted to the appointment of the 54-year-old.
