Fans of Tottenham Hotspur have been reacting to a post on Twitter, which relayed team news involving Lucas Moura and Carlos Vinicius ahead of Spurs’ Premier League clash with Leeds United on Saturday.

Speaking in his pre-match press conference on Friday, in reaction to a question asking whether Moura and Vinicius would be fit for the game against Leeds, Jose Mourinho said that he believes that both players will be healthy enough to feature in the fixture and that ‘everything is going well’ in their individual recoveries, before finishing by stating:

“I expect them to be ready.”

How well can you remember Spurs' season so far? 1. Who is Spurs' top scorer in all competitions so far this season?

And, after The Spurs Web relayed this information on Twitter, fans of Tottenham flocked to have their say on the matter, with many calling for Mourinho to afford Vinicius, who joined Spurs on a season-long loan deal back in October, more game time.

Do you think Vinicius should feature against Leeds?

No

So, what exactly did these Tottenham Hostpur fans have to say in reaction to Jose Mourinho’s team news regarding Lucas Moura and Carlos Vinicius?

All in all, it would appear that the vast majority of these Tottenham Hotspur fans are desperate for Mourinho to play Vinicius against Leeds, however, many stated their belief that the manager will still leave the striker out, while others claimed that the 25-year-old has been wasted so far at Spurs.
