Mourinho’s men saw off a stubborn Baggies side thanks to Kane’s 88th minute header.
The England superstar has now scored 201 goals for the North Londoners with 150 of them coming in the Premier League.
Mourinho was asked about Kane’s stupendous numbers after Spurs’ win at the Hawthorns and the Portuguese coach was quick to wax lyrical about the club’s vice-captain.
"I prefer not to speak because he speaks by himself. Because some other players can have an incredible goal record but after that, what they did? This guy does much more than scoring goals. For example, last five minutes he was playing as a number six and winning balls in front of the defence. Special,” said the former Chelsea and Manchester United manager.
Tottenham Hotspur recorded yet another win away from home despite a disjointed performance against Slaven Bilic’s men, but Mourinho thinks his side defended well.
He added: “Every team, if you want to have a good position in the table and want to win objectives you need to win matches like this. We managed a clean sheet, we managed to be safe defensively.
"I feel satisfaction because we won and have 17 points and have 12 in 12 possible away from home and that compensates the dropped points at home, for this reason I am happy.
"If Liverpool win it means Manchester City drop points, if Leicester win it means Wolves have dropped points. I am fine with that."
