Andre Villas-Boas says that all eyes will be on Jose Mourinho when the new Premier League season gets underway.

Tottenham Hotspur manager Andre Villas-Boas has no doubts that all the attention will be on former mentor Jose Mourinho at Chelsea come the start of the new Premier League season.

The former Real Madrid boss left the Santiago Bernabeu at the end of last term, and has since joined returned to Stamford Bridge for a second spell at the club.

Having been under his guidance during his first tenure with the Blues, Villas-Boas is certain that the spotlight will be firmly on Mourinho.

"It won't be possible to take your eyes away from Mourinho," said Villas-Boas.

"One of his characteristics - and I don't say it in a negative way - is to deviate attentions, positive and negative, in such a way that the team is only worried about winning."

During his first stint at Chelsea, Mourinho enjoyed two Premier League title successes and five major trophy triumphs.
