Gary Neville has labelled Tottenham Hotspur duo, Harry Kane and Son Heung-min as ‘world-class’, as he told the Overlap.
The Sky Sports pundit was reacting to an Arsenal fan who was questioning why Tottenham’s summer signings can push them’ on this summer, especially given that some, like Richarlison, haven’t come from a Champions League club.
Mikel Arteta used his old contracts well by knocking on Manchester City’s door and securing the double transfer of Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko this summer.
Whereas Spurs decided to bulk up their squad, including adding a number of free transfers to their ranks, such as Ivan Perisic and Fraser Forster.
Nonetheless, this was what Neville had to say about Tottenham’s front two, who will be pushing for the Golden Boot ahead of the new Premier League season.
Arsenal fan: “So, those are the type of players, the signings that Spurs have made, that Arsenal haven’t made, which can push Spurs further on?”
Neville responded: “They have already got Harry Kane and Son, who are world-class. They have two world-class players up front.
“And they have now added to it, with Perisic and Richarlison.”
CAN SON AND KANE HIT 20+ GOALS THIS SEASON?
Son joined the Kane party by winning a Golden Boot for the first time in his career, with his partner in crime already having several of them on his mantelpiece.
Last season, Tottenham’s South Korean star put 23 goals on the table, with Kane netting 17, despite struggling for the first half of the campaign.
But heading into the new Premier League season, could they both hit 20 goals each alone?
Well, they weren’t far off it last time out, and with Antonio Conte running the club’s ship, then they are going to be a dangerous outfit for many.
If both don’t do it, then at least one of them will hit those numbers because they are too good not to.
