Tottenham: Why Harry Kane is the ultimate team player By Alan ShearerMatch of the Day pundit Last updated on 22 December 202022 December 2020.From the section Tottenham Tottenham have lost twice in the past seven days, and it's no coincidence that Harry Kane had a quiet game on both occasions. I still think Spurs are serious title contenders despite those defeats by Liverpool and Leicester, but for them to start firing again after Christmas, they will need Kane back on top form. His attacking contribution with nine goals and 10 assists in 14 Premier League games for Tottenham this season has been amazing and is a big reason they are at the top end of the table - when he plays well, Spurs usually do too.
