Jose on Tottenham's inconsistency: "For some time it's looked obvious to everybody that it's proving difficult for every team to be consistent. You can, for example, look at [Manchester United] and say, yes they are leaders of the table, but they have already lost in two competitions, the Champions League and the Carabao Cup."

Wilder on Jose Mourinho: "He gets the game and understands the game. The times I have met him, he’s been a fabulous man to talk to. I met him in the hotel and you get nervous inside - I am 53 and still nervous talking to Jose - he was complimentary of how we played and hopefully he is complimentary on Sunday. "I am not embarrassed about my journey - the Premier League is full of characters and brilliant managers and for me, he is top of the tree."
