Jose Mourinho loves taking swipes at Bruno Fernandes and Manchester United.
Mourinho, who spent two and a half season as United boss, can't help talking about his former employers sometimes.
And in particular is compatriot Fernandes, who almost became a Tottenham player before United signed him in January 2020.
Fernandes had been linked with a move to Spurs and came close to joining them before Sporting pulled the plug on a deal in the summer of 2019.
Speaking as the extended 2019/20 season was coming to an end, Mourinho made a pointed remark at Fernandes' penalty-scoring record in July.
He said: "Bruno came in, was fit, played very well, improved the United team and also proved to be a great penalty taker, one of the best in the world, because he had about 20 to score."
Fernandes scored four goals from the penalty spot last season, with United's Marcus Rashford topping the pile with six.
This season, Fernandes already has five to his name, just one behind Leicester's Jamie Vardy.
Harry Kane netted this third goal from the penalty spot this season when he opened the scoring against Leeds United in the 3-0 win. And Mourinho could not help referencing other players' penalty-scoring records in the aftermath of the win, having actually been asked about Son Heung-min's 100th goal for Spurs.
Mourinho said: "I'm very happy for him, I'm very happy that now people realise the player he is.
"I think we all have to explain to people the person he is, too.
"To get the Puskas award, to be scoring 100 goals for Tottenham and to be maybe in the top three Premier League scorers without penalties.
"Some players score ten goals a season on penalties and I'm not speaking about Harry Kane, by the way."
