Max Rushden , Barry Glendenning , Barney Ronay and Jonathan Liew discuss Mourinho’s humility, a ding-dong at the Etihad, depleting patience at Arsenal, Everton and West Ham, Antonio Conte’s special advice and Fish Or Not A Fish?

Join the conversation on Facebook, Twitter and email.

We take a look back at the weekend’s football, starting with José Mourinho’s first game in charge of Tottenham, where they ran out 3-2 winners against West Ham – a flattering scoreline for the losers.

We look at the rest of the Premier League, including wins for Manchester City and Liverpool, draws for Arsenal and Manchester United and at least three managers who stand on the precipice.

We speak to Sid Lowe about the latest in the war of wills between Gareth Bale and Real Madrid and Nicky Bandini tells us about Antonio Conte’s unusual advice for his players.

Back on Thursday.
