Highly recommend @Jon_Mackenzie's book The Spectre of Pep. The section that dives into Mourinho's approach, tactical periodisation and comparison to Conte particularly interesting. We are seeing this playing out right now and is the reason why Mourinho was picked to manage (not micro-manage) this group of players. Teams have gotten so good at a) building up and then creating against loose defensive units and b) so good at defending against build-ups that aren't very clearly defined and the players' ability to 'decide' games with moments is going to be key for him to succeed. Will it be enough?
