The force that through the green fuse drives the flower / Drives my green age; that blasts the roots of trees / Is my destroyer. / And I am dumb to tell the crooked rose / My youth is bent by the same wintry fever¡¦.by Dylan Thomas

Mourinho's standing as one of the world's leading managers, having delivered trophies at a host of top clubs, has been built on the defensive organisation and stability of his teams.
But it was the attacking nature of his new side's performance which again caught the eye, with Spurs producing their most devastating display under the Portuguese to date.
Looking to make amends for Wednesday's limp defeat at Manchester United - their first loss under Mourinho - Spurs hassled and harried from the first whistle, pressing Burnley quickly and putting them under an amount of pressure with which they could not cope.
Kane's quick opener set the tone and even from that point it looked as though Burnley would struggle to come away from north London with anything other than defeat.

Son picked up the ball on the edge of his area before sprinting the length of the pitch - leaving a trail of Burnley players in his wake - and slotting in to give Spurs a 3-0 half-time lead.
That all but sealed victory after Harry Kane had thumped the home team ahead and Lucas Moura converted a second from close range.
Burnley had chances of their own in the first half, hitting the woodwork through Robbie Brady, but paid dearly for their defensive vulnerability.

Saunders guided Villa to the First Division title in 1981, before departing during their European Cup-winning campaign the following season.
He also won two League Cups during his eight years at Villa Park.
"Ron Saunders died at 15:00 GMT on Saturday and his family have asked for their privacy to be respected at such a difficult time," a club statement said.

Senator Rick Scott, the ex-governor of Florida, called for a review of training programmes for foreign military personnel on US soil.
"We shouldn't be providing military training to people who wish us harm," he said.
The US defence secretary, Mark Esper, said he wanted to make sure that vetting was adequate.
"I want to make sure that we're doing our due diligence to understand: What are our procedures? Is it sufficient?" he told reporters.
Meanwhile Saudi officials have continued to condemn the attack, including vice-minister of defence, Khalid bin Salman, who said he trained at a US base like many others in the Saudi military.

Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani was a second lieutenant in the Saudi Air Force in training at the site, US officials say. There are reports that he posted an online manifesto before the attack but this is yet to be confirmed.
Several Saudi nationals were detained near the scene of the shooting, the New York Times reported, citing unnamed sources.
According to the US Navy, there had in recent weeks been 18 Saudi naval aviators and two aircrew members training at Pensacola.
An investigation was taking place and names of victims would not be released until next of kin had been notified, it said in a statement.

Sydney's first new major zoo in more than 100 years will open on Saturday. With such debate about animal welfare these days, can zoos still be a force for good? Gary Nunn reports from Sydney.
Zoos have evolved significantly since they were first created.
Their original purpose was braggadocio: a way for the wealthy to display their power in private collections. Later, they helped with science research. Then they became tourist attractions the public would pay to view. It wasn't until the 1970s onwards that conservation emerged as a priority.

What has Saudi Arabia said?
"King Salman of Saudi Arabia just called to express his sincere condolences and give his sympathies to the families and friends of the warriors who were killed and wounded in the attack," President Trump tweeted.
"The King said that the Saudi people are greatly angered by the barbaric actions of the shooter, and that this person in no way shape or form represents the feelings of the Saudi people who love the American people."
In a separate statement, the Saudi foreign ministry called the attack "horrific" and said it would provide "full support" to the investigation.

Ben Pearson, from World Animal Protection, says he has an additional concern: "What happens if this private zoo goes bankrupt? Zoos Victoria [in Melbourne] and Sydney's Taronga Zoo are publicly funded so they're able to to maintain high welfare standards.
"If Sydney Zoo goes bust, the elephant they shipped all the way from Dublin will likely have to be shipped back, adding to its distress."
Animal rights group Peta has said the new zoo is "nothing to celebrate" and that "Australians passionate about wild animals" should donate to organisations supporting animals in the wild instead.

Prof Bekoff's research into the sentience of animals reported on the stress, fear and boredom animals experience when confined in claustrophobic zoo enclosures that can be one millionth the size of their natural ranges.
"They'll feel the exact same emotions as companion animals - dogs and cats - if they're just kept locked up," he says.
This is backed up by a study which found that elephants in zoos often endure stress and have significantly shorter life spans than wild elephants.
Then there are the horror-story incidents: Harambe the gorilla was shot and killed in 2016 after dragging a toddler who'd climbed into an enclosure at Cincinnati Zoo; Tilikum the orca killed trainer Dawn Brancheau at Sea World Orlando; London Zoo keeper Jim Robson was killed by an elephant in front of a packed crowd in 2001.
