Jose Mourinho wins Premier League Manager of the month for November

Mourinho has been named Manager of the Month after guiding Tottenham to three wins and a draw from their four Premier League games in November.

It is the fourth time he has won the individual award, and the first since winning it with Chelsea in 2007.

Tottenham started the month with a  2-1 win at home to Brighton on November 1 before beating West Brom 1-0 at the Hawthorns on November 8, courtesy of a dramatic late winner from captain Harry Kane.

Spurs extended their winning run with a 2-0 victory over Manchester City on November 21 before ending the month with a 0-0 draw against his former club Chelsea on November 29.

That run helped Tottenham move to the top of the Premier League, where they remain ahead of Liverpool on goal difference after beating Arsenal 2-0 in the north London derby on December 6.

“For me it is not manager of the month – it is team of the month,” said Mourinho, when presented with the award.

“I believe it is about us as a team, it’s about the results that we had in November. It’s not about me.
