Tottenham head coach Jose Mourinho on Friday said emotions will play no part in Sunday's showdown with Chelsea, despite him facing one of his former clubs. Mourinho says he is now "100 per cent Tottenham" ahead of facing his former club Chelsea in Sunday’s London derby and claims he has "no space for previous clubs".

Sky Sports recalls that Mourinho managed Chelsea in two spells, winning three Premier League titles, an FA Cup and three League Cups.


In his second stint at Stamford Bridge, Mourinho claimed he would never manage Spurs because of his emotional attachment to the Blues.


But four years on from those comments, the Portuguese will now take charge of his eighth Tottenham game this weekend after being appointed head coach of the north London side last month.


Asked whether he can get over playing his former club Chelsea, he said: "Yes, of course. I can but maybe others can't but I can. For me, it's a game.


"I am 100 per cent Tottenham, I've always been 100 per cent my club throughout my career.


"There's no space at all for my previous clubs. I gave everything to all of them, I kept nothing back and I gave everything to them.


"But they are my previous clubs so I give everything to my [current] club and my club is Tottenham, so for me it's so easy to play this game. It'll be difficult because of the quality of Chelsea, but not difficult for the emotional point of view; not at all, easy.


"Before the game it's great to see some people that you consider friends, and after the game it's the same feeling.


"But during the game there isn't a second to think about it and there's not one inch of doubt.


"I am Tottenham 100 per cent, in the same way, I gave everything to make Chelsea supporters smiling and be happy, that's exactly the same desire I have for the Tottenham fans and that's what I want to try on Sunday."
