Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane has been in superb form this season.

Spurs ace Dele Alli addressed the media in the aftermath of his side’s hard-fought 1-0 win over bitter rivals Arsenal at Wembley today, and raved about the quality of his teammate Harry Kane, highlighting how it is a joy to play with the prolific striker, as quoted by the club’s official website.

The 24-year-old has been in sensational form for Tottenham so far this season, scoring 32 goals in 33 appearances in all competitions, and he has now established himself as arguably Europe’s most lethal out-and-out striker.

Kane was sensational from the very first whistle against the Gunners today. He was strong in the air, selfless with his running, and deadly when presented with a goalscoring opportunity.

His enthusiasm seems to rub off on the rest of the Spurs team, and the way he conducts himself sets the tone for the way in which Mauricio Pochettino’s side operate.

Dele spoke to reporters after today’s win over Arsenal, and singled out Kane for praise, admitting that it is a joy to play with him, as quoted by the club’s official website:

“It was an amazing header, and when you’ve got a striker who can finish like that, the other team have to come out more, and that opens up more space. He’s a joy to play with.”

Next up for Spurs is their Champions League clash with Juventus on Tuesday night, and Kane will have to be at his very best, if his side are to stand any chance whatsoever of returning to London with anything to show for their efforts.
