The 27-year-old Spurs hitman was on fire in the first-half against the Hammers.
He completely ran the show, providing an assist and scoring two goals to put Tottenham 3-0 up inside the first 15 minutes against West Ham.
David Moyes’s side produced a thrilling comeback, however, pegging Jose Mourinho’s men back to 3-3. It really was a quite incredible end to the match.
Declan Rice was absolutely buzzing after the game, and understandably so. But the 21-year-old still found time to praise Tottenham hitman Harry Kane, when speaking to Sky Sports:
“He’s different class. His hold-up play is on another level, the way he brings others into play…we had trouble dealing with him.”
Rice is spot on. Kane is undoubtedly one of the best centre-forwards in on the planet. If not the best.
The England international has scored 198 goals in 296 games for Tottenham. And he ran West Ham ragged during the early stages of yesterday’s game.
The Hammers have got to find a way of nullifying the opposition’s threats better in future. We got away with it yesterday.
But that was a once in a life-time comeback. And next time we come up against Harry Kane, we had better have a plan in place to deal with him.
