Kane: Spurs is stronger than last season

Heung-Min Son scored two to establish Spurs’ dominance in the game, and Dele Alli and Harry Kane scored a goal each in the second half to polish off a lethargic looking Stoke side. The pieces are all in place – evidenced by Tottenham not signing any clear starters over the summer – but the Argentine’s methods and madness is something that will still take years to properly instill. “It’s a very good group of people, players who connect with each other, staff who connect with the players and we all have an idea of where we want to go, and hopefully we’ll achieve it”.

“I was out of order to be perfectly honest and I will admit that”, Hughes said at his post-match media conference. After four games we are unbeaten and you can see that the team has recovered.

Both offer a very different point scoring scale, Lamela far more reliant on goals and assists whereas Eriksen is able to offer production in most categories and therefore a safer point floor. The memories of both the end to last season and Euro 2016 seem to be proving more hard to shake off than Pochettino would have hoped, while an underwhelming transfer window has failed to lift supporters whose expectations going into the new campaign were higher than at any point over the past two decades.

The France global goalkeeper and Tottenham Hotspur captain has not played since limping off with a hamstring injury at Everton on the opening day of the Premier League season.

In addition, they have managed to tie down manager Mauricio Pochettino and playmaker Christian Eriksen to new long-term deals, showing the existing squad has faith in the direction the club is heading.

“We will rotate the squad and every player will have the chance to show his quality”.

“I think we’ve got a stronger squad than past year”, the England worldwide said.
