Eric Dier believes Jose Mourinho is the perfect man to take over from Mauricio Pochettino at Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham Hotspur secured their first Premier League victory on the road in 10 months at the expense of West Ham United at the London Stadium on Saturday, ensuring Jose Mourinho’s reign at North London got off to a flying start.

The Portuguese replaced Mauricio Pochettino on Wednesday morning, less than 12 hours after the Argentine was shown the exit door, and he has been tipped to help Spurs to their first piece of silverware since 2008.

As evident on Saturday, some of the players are more than ready to prove their worth to Mourinho, and Eric Dier believes he is indeed the perfect man to take over from Pochettino.
