THE SPECIAL ONE is back as Tottenham make the short journey to face West Ham.
The Hammers have not won a game since they turned over Manchester United in the middle of September and were dispatched handily 3-0 by Burnley before the international break.
Spurs are also winless since September having been frustrated in the last few weeks in draws against Everton and Sheffield United.
But with Mourinho now in the dug-out, fans will be hoping he can turn their fortunes around after a dismal campaign.

AURIER and Son do brilliantly to relieve the pressure and win Spurs a free-kick.
They then move the ball forward and Son's strike is palmed away by Roberto, not a bad effort.
Lucas then has a half chance but his header drifts harmlessly wide. Chances have been few and far between so far.
-
WEST HAM starting to slowly grow into the contest as they move the ball around with little attacking threat.
It's an all-English battle in midfield today with Noble and Rice verses Dier and Winks.
I'm sure Gareth Southgate will be watching intently.
-
YELLOW! Diop is somehow gone in the book for a foul on Kane.
But it was definitely Kane fouling him!
Bizarre decision by Michael Oliver. The cross from the free-kick is not dealt with by Roberto – the West Ham stopper is a shambles from crosses.
-
BETTER by West Ham as they work the ball well down the right.
A cross is whipped in by Fredericks on the penalty spot but the header is straight into the hands of Gazzaniga.
That's given the fans something to cheer.
-
TOTTENHAM will be looking to test Roberto early on in the West Ham goal.
The nervy keeper has conceded 16 goals in eight games including his nightmare against Burnley in their last outing.
Spurs playing all the football so far, West Ham have barely had a touch of the ball.
