And the Portuguese boss said he is only sorry that Spurs fans cannot be in the stadiums to witness their goal-fest this season.

They have already scored 31 times in 10 games – the most of all Premier League teams. On-loan Gareth Bale made his first start offthe bench in the Europa League last week, Harry Kane tops the assists table, while Heung-min Son has netted nine times in the last six games.

“He is in a good moment and the team too,” said Mourinho. “Which attacking player is not playing well? Nobody. The team, the way we are playing, I think it’s good fun to be an attacking player in our team.

“I am enjoying it too but I’m sad with the empty stadiums.

“In the majority of countries it’s possible and we are going to have that next week in Belgium. It would be really great fun. They would enjoy to be here to watch.”
