Alan Shearer has said that he definitely thinks that Tottenham Hotspur duo Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son are ‘world-class’ on Match of the Day, which was broadcast by the BBC.

Son and Kane linked up brilliantly for Tottenham against Manchester City, as Spurs won 2-0.

Son scored Tottenham’s first goal on the day, while Kane set up the second.

And Shearer thought that the attacking duo were absolutely outstanding.

“I think they did superbly well, very well organised and with those two world-class forwards they looked very, very impressive,” Shearer said.

“Yes, they got men behind the ball and were narrow and compact, but they were happy to force City out wide.

“It wasn’t just about defending, though. The movement of Kane… Son is too bright for them. Those two are just incredible.”

Son and Kane have been in simply remarkable form for Tottenham this season, with the duo’s brilliant displays one of the reasons why Jose Mourinho’s side have impressed so much.

Spurs’s win over City has launched them into top spot in the Premier League, with optimism building about their chances of mounting a title challenge.

If Tottenham are to win the league then they will surely be heavily reliant on Kane and Son keeping up their current form.

Son sits in second place in the Premier League top scorers charts currently, while Kane has made more assists than any other player in the league.
